| Plasma speakers anyone with info? Detlof my friend (i like your posts), I'm talking poor humor - I was just joking. | |
| How much money do you want to waste? Praise Allah! Zaikesman is back in the pound around and is even getting philosophical ~! In honor of his return I have decided to dig deep and award the 200th poster 50ft of 14 gauge Zip Wire (Just enough to hang yourself and if your #200 won't yo... | |
| Plasma speakers anyone with info? Bear- if you are not willing to have a little argon gas and stray high voltage roaming around the living room you simply aren't a serious audiophile. | |
| Best US magazine for equipment review? AudioXpress | |
| How much money do you want to waste? Jlambrick: you mean after 80 odd posts of ad hominem attacks and assorted sophistry you have the gall to bring up resistance, capacitance, inductance and evening damping? You should know that you are a lost objectivist. Haven't you read any of thi... | |
| Cheap Stuff That Keeps Up? Dynaco ST70 amplifier(Some of the Scotts too) that float through here for $200-450. True entry level hifi if you are smart enough to give them a little TLC. Reminds you how far the industry hasn't come in 40 years. | |
| How does one get off the merry-go-round? Not certain I was as hooked as some but an old friend pulled me off with an experience close to Detlofs. My tweaker friend sat me down to his system based on an old Dynaco 70 that he tweaked a little and speakers that he made for under $750 (scans... | |
| Time Life Classic Jazz A last offer on compilations which I usually am not a great fan of but are one way to find what you like. Try "The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever!" It is really close to that. 2cd set and cd1 is an outstanding selection of classic jazz. No... | |
| 2A3 amp and Spendors? 3ox: I was not knocking the speakers. I am sure they are great sounding when paired with suitable amp. 3ox is right make sure you listen in your room before you buy. I do not think that you are going to find yourself on the "cusp" however. Listen ... | |
| 2A3 amp and Spendors? Hi Not sure but I think your speaker has a sensitivity of 88db (1 watt at 1 metre). Is your model number the SP2/3? 88db is not good for a 2A3. Generally you will not get good performance with that rating. Folks differ with what they want but I wo... | |
| Time Life Classic Jazz Sorry .. didn't mean to take any cheap shots. | |
| How are tubes to be purchased in general? Agree with the posts above. Nice to measure the voltage (bias) running in your tubes - get a meter. The only time you are going to run into trouble is if your tubes are running hot and some amps change over time. Not like Sand amps where you plug ... | |
| Time Life Classic Jazz It is only my opinion but Time-Life is so so. It depends a lot on what yours tastes are and how serious you are. Look at a couple of the recent posts by Sdcampbell "best recording I heard in 2001" and "Downbeat Best Recordings of 2001". E-mail him... | |
| Possibly moving to ITALY Will my U.S. gear work? I don't think so. Everything will be in Italian. | |
| Downbeat magazine: Best CD's of 2001 Thanks for continuing input. I printed it out and will use it for thought. Dave Holland is tops on my own list too. As i write I listen to Charles Lloyd, The Water is Wide. Db did't give him no respect but He is on my short list for this year too.... |
