| What is the best 1080p hdmi cable to buy? I second the MonoPrice. I bought one for about $35 for my new HD LCD............ The thing is very well made and offers really good performance IMHO.Chris | |
| Bowling alley lane wood for component tables? Are you sure it's Oak? I always thought most bowling alleys where Maple. I don't know that Oak would necessarily be bad (especially if it's free), but Maple is really nice for your application.Chris | |
| Audioquest Sky/Evrest or Purist Dominus/Anniversar I can tell you some of MY experiences in MY system........... I had the AUdioquest SKY XLR's between my CD and preamp. I have Purist Venustas pretty much everywhere else. I auditioned from the Cable Co. Purist Auqeus Aniversary, Cardas Neutral ref... | |
| Turntable Experts - please help repair speed prob I'm not familiar with your TT, but you might look at the Teres website for motor options. The buzz is they are very good.Chris | |
| Seeking good advice on electronics for my ML 's. I have to disagree with the above posters. I've had three different pairs of ML's (SL-3, Aeon, and Prodigy's) and found Bryston amps to sound too upfront and rather agressive. I had these paired with both SS and tube preamps. Overall I really pref... | |
| Avantgarde Duo 2.2 Amplifier Match. No, the Nagra (at 20k now) was out of my budget. It sounded great, but ultimately it was a bit too noisy with the AVG's. I ended up with an Art Audio PX25 and think it sounds great.......... I probably like it better than the Nagra's for 90% of my... | |
| Want to get into Analog but i do not have a preamp I used to own Prodigy's and an ARC VT200/LS25II......... Very nice. My CD player (Theta Miles) will run direct, like yours. Without doubt, no question, absolutely, for sure, you are better off running through a nice preamp. OK, off my soapbox........ | |
| What to do with dedicated power lines..help please Like I said above, I have four seperate lines and my system divided among them. I have never had any grounding issues, but I can't tell you what the issues are in this regard.Chris | |
| Avantgarde Duo 2.2 Amplifier Match. I demoed my AVG's with a BAT amp (VK50 SE I think (it was their new small model)). I almost didn't buy the speakers....... I asked my dealer to put his Nagra 845's on and we were off to the races ( or should I say the bank). I will probably get do... | |
| What to do with dedicated power lines..help please Most people feel that separating the analog (i.e. amps, pre-amps) from the digital components is the first and most important step with your AC (upon installing dedicated lines)....... I have four dedicated lines in my listening room and have desi... | |
| Tube Characterization: 6DJ8, 6922, 7308, CCa, etc Comming from someone who is pretty much just starting to experiment with NOS tubes I would love to have some further references (I think Joes Tube Lore is really great BTW) on the general qualities of differing tubes. I wish there was some more in... | |
| Best sounding floor speaker for under $1500??? Maggie 1.6's...... New, $1,800.... Used, around 1k. Like the above posters have said; you are really not providing enough info, but if you have the space and power to drive them they are hard to beat IMHO.Chris | |
| Schroeder versus Tri-Planar Patrick,A very cool system....... I am thinking about trying to find a Garard 301 to refurb and take the place of my VPI Aries...... Are you still happy with yours? Any suggestions? I have only ben looking for about a month but the prices are gett... | |
| Aesthetix Callisto owners help please I own a Callisto Signature (single PS)and love it. One thing that I find really amazing is it's dead quiet with my 103db sensitive Avantgarde Duo's..... and these speakers will reveal EVERYTHING upstream from them. I have done some tube rolling an... |
