Converting to Analog
Tonyp54:Hello Tony. Guess what??? I am also becoming an analog convert myself. But only, not to the extent that you are becoming one. While I am getting ready to add analog to my audio system, there will always be a place for digital in my life, i... 
Suggestions for my first turntable?
Bradz:I don't know about me recommending any tubes to put in your phono stage, whereas I am going to be getting a "solid-state" phono stage (the Monolithic PS-1 + HC-1), so I am going to leave you either at the mercy of others here, or leave you o... 
Got a Thorens TD-147.. Questions?? Comments????
To Viridian, Jeffloistarca, and Rives Audio:Thanks to all who have responded so far. For someone who has been mostly digital all of his life, getting into analog may prove to be a refreshing experience for me. Hopefully, it won't be too intoxicati... 
What companies, out of Business, did you LOVE???
(01). Museatex/Meitner: Some of the prettiest "high-end" components that I have ever laid my eyes on. Start out with spartran and stealth looking front panels, back them up with sophisticated audio technology, and then add some classy looking rose... 
Your Perfect Office System?
Budrew:I have the unfortunate situation of working for an employer, so a home office for me is out right now. But that doesn't mean that I cannot enjoy my music with fine sound when I am in fact working. It's just when you are working in an office... 
Best sub- 300 DVD?
Cdelplato:I second Tom's recommendation on the Toshiba SD-4700. Or you could try Sony's new DVP-NS715 for just $200.00. This one has everything that you are looking for, and has 12/108 video processing on top of that. All for just $200.00. It has ... 
Thoughts for a system for 5000
Scon90:Too bad I'm not in the market for a system right now. I seem to be content with what I already assembled so far. All I am going to do is add an analog/vinyl playback system, an SACD Player, a subwoofer, and will attempt to build an equipmen... 
Best DVD on a budget
Nathanziarek:If you can stretch your budget a little bit (say..... about $200.00), you can opt for the Philips Q50 (retails for $500.00). Delivers a very nicely detailed picture (almost filmlike....... like my Pioneer Elite DV-37), and a very nice... 
Pioneer DV 37 Question
Trip:I also happen to own a Pioneer Elite DV-37 right now. And while I have bought it originally to use it as a DVD Player, I found out later on that the DV-37 has a very good audio section too. It definitely makes my JVC XL-509TN CD Changer sound... 
Best DVD for video and theater sound for 2000
Jckviola:I am also going to put a vote in the hat for the new Arcam DV-88P. It is priced at $2,100.00. But if you shop around, you might be able to undercut that price just a tiny bit.--Charles-- 
Analog Front End for 5000
Hzhu1920:Personally, I don't think that I'll be spending $5,000.00 on my analog system when I will begin assembling it around next month or so (I am going to spend about half of what you are proposing to spend). But now, if I were to spend that am... 
Ideas for a complete analog set up 2500- 3500
Bbtuna:I'm sorry....... my mistake...... I meant the Rega P25. Accept my apologies for the typo??Thanks.....--Charles-- 
Recommendations A/V RCVR
Cdelplato:(01). Outlaw (don't know the model number...... but that was a $600.00 receiver last year. But they have since reduced the price by $100.00, which now, makes it an EXCEEDINGLY attractive buy....... give one a try).(02). Arcam AVR100.(03)... 
Ideas for a complete analog set up 2500- 3500
Bbtuna:I am in the same boat as you are right now. And with that, I am planning to ultimately spend about $2,500.00 on an analog system as well, though I am going to do so over the next couple of years. What I am going to do is acquire the phono s... 
"DIY" Salamander Synergy 40/Twin 40 Audio Rack....
To all that has responded so far, a BIG thanks of appreciation. But if there are any other ideas out there, do keep them coming in. I would appreciate that as well. But again, to those who have responded already???Thanks.........--Charles--
