| How good are Axiom loudspeakers These are seriously contenders. I have turned many onto these and run a pair of the M3Ti myself. They are much smoother, detailed, less bright and dynamic than the Titans which I've also owned. They will reveal inferior equipment on the front end.... | |
| I am looking for an FM antenna amplifier The Reflect antenna from ccrane.com is not an amplifier, but just a very good dipole, the best I've used. | |
| I need a phono preamp and I'm leaning toward Krell Lean the other way. | |
| Does anyone have feedback on the TERK Pro antenena TERK is garbage. MD whip is very good omnidirectionally and the $30 FM Reflect from ccrane.com will beat it for unidirectional reception. Good luck. | |
| Speakers to match Audio Refinement Complete? Coincident Triumph UHS. | |
| FM Tuner Repairs???? Whatjd,I trust all repairs to Doug Siegel at Audio Specialties in Portland, OR at 503 257 3206. He also runs a used only shop so has lots of experience putting older equipment together. Good luck. | |
| When is the golden age of high-end audio? The 'component' you seek is the late 70s Luxman integrated you talked your friend into buying which was the perfect upgrade to his Pioneer receiver. You then sat around and rediscovered some of his CDs and vinyl together. The Spica 50s you modifie... | |

| Your Perfect Office System? Classik T is the winner with whatever small monitor you like. Rogers, Spendors, you know the drill. | |
| A New or Repaired faceplate for Marnatz 7 Might try two places in Portland, OR. Audio Specialties (Doug Siegel) at 503 257 3206 or Echo Audio echohifi.com(Kurt)at 888 248 ECHO as they deal almost exclusively with used. Good luck. | |
| CD-R's suddenly "unreadable". This is an elusive problem because it can be a lowered output from an aging laser, misalignment, tray movement problems or the fact you are burning the CDRs at 16Xs or 24Xs which seems to present problems with some players. I would first have a te... | |
| Recommend speakers I'll second the Axioms. They are amazing and with so little hype. I've purchased for friends (and held onto for a short time) the M3Tis and they are wonderful. Took awhile to get used to the thought of metal drivers but they really do their thing.... | |
| Does anyone prefer Toslink, with DAC? Eldragon,Toslink often sounds better than coax. Better bottom end and more open in the mids. Don't be afraid. | |
| New Analog system. where to start? Rega 25 with Micro Benz will take you far enough into analogue to decide whether further investment is warranted. Used should run about $1000. | |
| tuners under 1000? Luxman from the late 70s early 80s are very tough to beat. Analogue and very musical. You need to step up to the Magnum Dynalabs and Sequerras to beat them. I've owned several tuners throughout the years and choose them. |
