| 'they blew'em off the stage' Black & Blue Tour at the Garden (79 or 80); Blue Oyster Cult totally blew away Sabbath (Ronnie James Dio--not Ozzie). First time I saw BOC and they made Dio/Sabbath look absolutely terrible. Made me a BOC fan. | |
| Eagle Eye in Dolby True HD I saw it last night in Blu Ray (Elite Kuros 60"); gotta say, the action never stopped and sound was awesome (Elite receiver, elite BD95 and B&W 805). Death Race is set for tonight. | |
| Shunyata Power Cords If you buy your Shunyata cables from your friendly neighborhood dealer, as I do, upgrading to the newer model, if you feel the need, isn't much of an issue, or financialy painful. All my PC's are shunyata, having now 6 pythons, having upgraded fro... | |
| 720 p/1080 p combatibility..... Doesn't DISH TV have 1080P? | |
| Surface Noice, yubes and solid state Thanks, Frogman. That was it and I did misunderstand. Wonderful explanation and clarification.Thank you. | |
| Blu-Ray HD Audio Coding, worth $1000 Upgrade? I upgraded from Rotel processor/amp to Pioneer Elite 94 receiver and am absoutely thrilled. Dolby digital sounds significently inferior compared to the new codecs; on blu ray discs, the previews are still in dolby digital while the movie is in the... | |
| Help VPI turntable hummmmmmm Make sure the 4 pins from the cartridge are seated properly to the cable's coming from the tonearm; make sure the insulation is on all four of the cables that clamp to the pins. I had a hum a while ago as there was one insulation missing. Dealer r... | |
| Wilson Vortex Cleaning arm for VPI clean machines It's definately worth the time (and frustration) to set it up properly. You do need a few throw away lp's (I have too many) but once you dial it in, it's an awesome improvement. | |
| b&w 685: heard 'em, liked 'em, but wondering I've had the 685's in my PC system (Musical Fidelity DAC, Cayin A50T, M Audio Firewire, Monarchy DIP) for about 8 months and still can't beleve how good they sound for $600 bucks. They image nicely, have decent bass, awesone soundstage, low level ... | |
| first time vinyl Charly, I'm on Long Island, NY. If you're local, you can pick up my Dual CS5000. (sorry but can't ship). Has the Dual tone arm, no cartridge. It has always worked great. (I have upgraded a few times since so it has been dormant for years). It woul... | |
| Walker Vortex Vacuum Wand for VPI I just received mine. It installed too easilly (VPI 16.5; no set pin). Tried it to make sure no scratches on a real throw-away disc and first shot, no problems. I was surprised after reading these posts-I only ordered it cause it was discontinued;... | |
| Channel Islands Squeezebox Power Supply? Yes, coax out into benchmark dac1, nordost digital cable | |
| Channel Islands Squeezebox Power Supply? I have the CI power supply and it was a noticable improvement over the wall wart in both detail and soundstage, as well as improved bass slam and low level resolution. I also upgraded the umbilical with a Revelation Audio cable. They were both ins... | |
| break-in for Marantz SA-7S1 Tinear1, if you are enjoying CD's and SACD's like never before, go try the ultrabit platnium. It will be like it was when you first hit 500 hours of breakin-just as astounding. | |
| Will an external DAC work on SACD? I may be wrong but isn't Meitners DAC6 an sacd dac? |
