| Why are audiophiles perceived as being wackos? CWlondon, do you have any ideas how audio should be marketed? I'm commonly asked by non-audiophiles "Do you REALLY hear the differences?" or "How can you be so sure of what you're hearing?" Most people don't listen that much or that intently to st... | |
| Why are audiophiles perceived as being wackos? So CW, if audiophile only spend big $$$ for prestige and not perceived benefits we can appreciate we'd be okay. I.E. the people with $50,000 kitchens don't claim any benefit other than prestige are sane? I think you may be on to something but mayb... | |
| Economy amps from Channel, Nixon, etc? Here is the latest T-amp with double the power. Only $25 for the kit and said to blow away the modded Sonic Impact.41 Hz amp | |
| Beginner Amp for near or under 200.. I got a refurbished Harmon Kardon HK3470 100wpc receiver from harmanaudio.com for $188. Sounded nice for the money. Slightly lacking in bass depth and weight and highs had an artifical sheen on complex harmonics like violin. In the range of Teac o... | |

| First Order Crossovers: Pros and Cons Thanks Skrivis and Gregm. I have tried twice to respond but both times, 15 minutes into my response my computer crashes from doing Ebay auction at the same time. So I give up. | |
| Digital Amp's Third Audioengr's comments. Also they are really fussy about getting clean power. I could not run my PS Audio through my Tripp-Lite surge protector - even with dedicated line. But for good sound on the cheap, not bad. | |
| Please recommend components for newbie with $1K Epos M12 or ES11 speakers. Try them with your Scott tube amp before chucking it. Integra is really bright to my ears. Creek A50 integrated sells for ~$500 used at Audiogon and is voiced for the Epos. | |
