| CDP repair in central Florida Unless you have a unit that cost more then $2K, best to dump it and get a oppo 95. | |
| amplifier versus hearing aid I have worn aids for fifty years. The best bet is to work with a knowledgeable audiologist, one who will have the patience to properly adjust the frequency curves of each of the processing programs that your aids can handle. Two aids are better th... | |
| Speakers with no rear wall, better or worse sound? Time to check out Floyd Toole's 'Sound Reproduction' book. I believe that the one third, one third, one third rule will give you the best sound if using acoustic speakers. Maggies have a whole other set up routine. | |
| Question for VPI Rim Drive Owners I had the rim drive set up but sold it off as it was too much of a hassle to keep aligned and noise free. In addition, vibrations do leak into the platter. Call it one of Harry's bad ideas. | |
| Vinyl Collection Cataloging ? Collectorez is what I've been using. I used it for both vinyl and CD's. I also use it with cassettes and some R2R media I have. With cd's and cassettes it has a bar code reader which helps fetch information from the web, most of the time. This is ... | |
| Inexpensive Transport Sony 595, often available from SonyStyle as a refurb for $60. | |

| Suggestions for a tube integrated under $3000 buying a Cayin or VAS is a must, great sound, great value. I own four of them, never a problem. Consider buying used if you can do a pick up, for cash. | |
| Small Room Speakers Look into the proac line. Great sound, great value. | |
| Bob Carver LLC Black Beauty Review Well, about time, for Carver to return to tubes. He finally got some 'tube religion', thank God. | |
| Room treatment made me cry.......a little........ A new believer. It often is all about the tweak of the room, not new equipment. However, there is often no need to remove the TV, just do a custom diffuser to place over the screen. I can't count the number of systems that show up on Audiogon with... | |
| April 19th Yes Elizabeth, there are 20.7's in your future, but only if you sell me your 3.6's at a great price. Oh, how 'new' can become. | |
| NYC expo waldorf astoria april 13-15 2012 Well if Andy is going, it must mean we are fully recovered from the recession. I will drop in for a day. Hoepfullly the rooms at the Waldorf will have better acoustics then the many glass boxes in the city. If VPI will be there it is a first. Hope... |
