| Modified Music Hall CD-25 I've spoken with Dan Wrigh about his CD25 mods and the tubed outpu is a very impressive bit of engineering, I would have to say that he definately has an edge over the other mods but is also the most expensive but what would you have to pay for a ... | |
| Philips 1000 vs 963 for 2 channel. Which one ? Philips doesn't have any part for the 1000. So if it breaks down you have a boat anchor.. Some people with warranty have had their money refunded but.... without warranty !?!? | |
| $250 used speaker cables for warm system savesome money and pull apart some plenum rated cat5 cable 35 cents a foot at home depot. Use a single run of two wires on each side so you can make say a 10 foot pair out of ten feet of cat5 because it is in double runs..oh man I should finish my... | |

| audio physic sparks vs. monitors I have had the sparks and wouldn't recommend them. The steps are nicer for sure. My recommendation would be to look at the transmission line monitors from www.carolinaaudio.com .. they use the Jordan JX92s full range driver. I have been so impress... | |
