| Be nice to nOobs I would suggest you offer your phone # and have a conversation in your offer to purchase, a good conversation goes way further then a few positive feedbacks. Also do you homework and try not to ask very simple questions a google or Audiogon search... | |
| Super High Material I am all for better sound if it can be had, reasonably. | |
| Super High Material I cant say I have heard it but it sounds like another attempt to inject enthusiasm and a higher price for folks willing to pay. | |
| worse entertainer or performer of all time?? Most of the "Country Pop" crowd, nobody writes there own songs they simply perform them....and its mostly about looks over talent. Did you guys know J-Lo's song "Jenny from the Block" had over 20 producers for that crap song! I never understood ho... | |

| Pet audiophile peeves - name yours No doubt Bill, it seems lately there are some high priced garbage lisitng and "HotStamper" is in heavy rotation, I wonder if its one big offender or a few idiots......they dont appear to sell which is a bit of justice. | |

| Is Sony XA9000es superior to Esoteric DV 50s? No, we are in different states so that isnt easy to do, I know the Esoteric is across the board a better sounding player, while the Sony is great at SACD it is average or slightly above for red-book....thats my opinion. | |
| Moving away from tubes. Is this a good idea? If you want easy then that amp will be great, it will be a hot runner but it will be great. | |
