Tubeyist sounding Pre-amp? Maybe try a Yaquin tube buffer between your amp and pre. $200 at Amazon.com of all places. I hear these things work. | |
Cable acoustics Totem Forest Honestly, as you haven't even finalized your system, I would just buy a pair of 10 or 12 gauge Belden from Blue Jeans cable to use while you get the pieces together. They do a very nice job terminating the cables too. I think I even have a pair ... | |
Tubeyist sounding Pre-amp? I think that, in the OP's context, "tubey" means something with euphonic coloration that makes things sound more "beautiful" as opposed to neutral. Audiophiles always say they want something neutral, but often prefer something to smooth out the r... | |
Onkyo C-7070 Reference CD Player: Are these any good? What are they similar to? No experience with this player, but I have always liked Onkyo products for sound and reliability. I think the headphone amp is a good feature if you do any serious headphone listening. I recall buying a $200 Onkyo amp from Amazon while waiting f... | |

Killer Floor Standing Speakers under $4000 for Rock? IMO, you are wasting your time and money with high-end speaker systems. They will not give you what you want. Here’s something closer to what you need and the cost is very reasonable. https://www.amazon.com/JBL-3722N-Passive-Operation-Loudspeaker/... | |
What is the most analog sounding CD player under $ without getting involved in the analog v. digital debate, I think when people talk about an analog-sounding cd player, they mean something on the warmer side. | |
Clean away old CD treatments Can it core A apple? | |
Clean away old CD treatments Dawn is the go-to product for auto detailers that want to strip the old wax from cars before a detailing. Very good on windshields to remove the greasy buildup that makes wipers streak. It's also good on dishes. | |
Clean away old CD treatments Dawn dishwashing liquid should remove any waxes or oils on the CDs. You might also try ROR - residual oil remover, a liquid made for cleaning fine camera and microscope lenses. It's available from Amazon or most camera stores. But the Dawn shou... | |
Not seeing the sound Check the phase - out of phase speakers have sound coming out of nowhere. Put on a cd with a well-centered vocal like Nora Jones and make sure she's coming from dead center. If not, your speakers are out of phase or you moved them to such a wack... |
