| Any good shelf systems out there? Look for an Arcam Mini-Solo. Checks all boxes except for HD radio. I've owned several of these and they really are sweet. | |
| Good 2 channel receiver 1980s Luxman or Yamaha. | |
| This might be of Interest..... Interesting only from the viewpoint that Rick misses the point entirely.I understand where he is going and he is probably quite knowledgable about the technical stuff. However....... the bands and musicians he mentions have particular tastes and ... | |
| To power strip or not Decware ZLC does the trick for under $1K. Steve Deckert is a great engineer.https://www.decware.com/newsite/ZLC.html | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA footers: impressions These are very real. Under my ATC 40 active with carpet spikes and they rock. The footers improve everything and the spikes improve the performance of the footers. This is an immediate improvement, not a sit and listen for an hour and wonder if... | |
| dissapointed - new LS50w's vs old PioneerFS52's/Luxman R113 - so far Kef's not so great? +1 twoleftears I really don't get this speaker and I've owned KEFs in the past. They sound like they are out of phase to me and I've heard them with real power in a decent room. Not familiar with the W ones. | |

| Integrated tube amp under $1000 / $2000 Will Vincent offers great stuff, mostly heavily modified Dynaco ST 70 amps. But he does offer one model with one input and a volume pot. Highest quality components. | |

I’ve chased AC conditioners for years, the last one a Furman Elite 15 with some effect. Then, a Decware ZLC conditioner which was transformational in all aspects.Crazy improvement at all levels. My s... | |
| Replacing Manley Neo-Classic 300B testpilot,Great idea. Sent the unit to Benjamin Zwickel of Mojo Audio and he mapped out a plan for that with Goldpoint or Khozmo and other improvements. Unit arrived DOA to him. Currently at Manley for repair and service. So after all that, I'... | |
| Need a new DAC Without a budget, kind of tough. But, +1 for the Mojo Audio Mystique V3 as I own one and it is spectacular. | |
| Center placed equipment stands Georgehifi,Must have a live feed from my listening room. No really, it's just a real estate and cable length challenge that keeps things centered. I don't doubt you are correct about removal. I do have exposed tubes though and am primally mesme... | |
| Amplification Recommendations for LS3/5A The older VTL 85 integrated is fabulous and in your price range. The Manley Stingray fits the bill except for pricing. Neither have phono stages so that may be a deal killer.The Rogue Audio may be the perfect fit. |
