| Blue Circle BC2 - may need to upgrade. I'd look into McIntosh (maybe not small enough), maybe Odyssey Audio, or Pass Aleph but bass may be lacking. My first choice would be Aleph although I haven't heard the combination. | |
| Is "live" music sound possible for under $1K I don't think a $200 tube pre will help your situation. Try for a good passive or just a stepped attenuator from www.percyaudio.comCBM-170 from Ascend Acoustics are quite good for $328. Maybe a bit analytical and etched so go for a softer amp I wo... | |

| Audioquest is bright?? Thanks. Hi Bob, it is the power amp. I was surprised reading a post here recently where someone said AudioQuest was bright. Hence my post here. Being solid copper with no silver plating and insulated strands, I would think Granite is as un-bright ... | |

| What slim$1000 speakers will match Bryston B-60 ? Epos M15. | |
| Axiom 80TiSe, Meadowlark Osprey, Thiel CS1.6 Do you want deep bass? Thiel 1.6 won't give it to you.More neutral than Meadowlark. | |
| Amplifier Recommendation for B&W Nautilis 804 I heard Classe with the CDM7's. Classe Yanked them around by the nose. I didn't see the need for dual bass drivers that the CDM 9's use. B&W was using Classe Omega's on their snail so maybe B&W likes the synergy.I disagree that B&W has... | |
| opinions on linn classic Is the Linn Classik about $2,000 all in one box? If so I heard it with Joseph speakers and sound was grainy. With Steely Dan's "Two against Nature" sure sounded like he had a BAD hangover. | |
| Tube amp kit. Where can I find it? Audio by van Alstine.www.avahifi.com | |
| The Fastest most musical amp Audio by Van Alstine as well as Spectral.Fet valve or OmegaSET's sound "shouty" and hyped to my ears more than fast. Maybe higher 2nd order harmonics are part of the reason. | |
| Are there speakers after Stax? I agree with Plato. Many times when listening to audio stuff, I've thought the designer was a jerk. Especially over priced tweaks. | |
| Preamps, Whats the difference, Active & Passive ? If a Placette doesn't work then maybe a transformer based (Bent) passive would be a better match. | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Buscis2 thanks, that pretty much explains it except which side is the bevel? Is the label side or read side larger in dia after beveling? I'll give this a try with Steely Dan's "Two Against Nature" since I have a couple of them.I followed your lin... | |
| Wash, Cut, Polish & Demagnetize Sean, what angle, etc. does this edge trimmer work at? Is there a corner radius? Is only the O.D. being beveled? I ask because I can turn the CD on a small bench lathe.For people here considering $600 for a CD lathe, realize you can buy a real ben... |
