| Vinyl playback - lack of bass? Too many variables to suggest your hypothesis. It’s suggesting digital has more bass, but vs. what turntable, cartridge, recording? You can’t make such a blanket statement unless you’re simply attempting to stir the pot with another digital is sup... | |
| Shipping costs- WTF Just read the overseas shipping via FedEx “secret” about their GREAT RATES option and telephone number to call. I’ve probably used the GREAT RATES option to ship a dozen or so times. And each time it saved me over 60, sometimes 70 percent off the ... | |
| Shipping costs- WTF Simple answer: Always ship via FexEx with your own account. You sign up for free online and establish your own account. The process will take you less than 15 minutes. Then you create a shipping invoice yourself and then attach the shipping invoi... | |
| A life sentence!!! My Martin Logan’s, absolutely fit that category. Even though they’re not the perfect speaker, they still do jazz and classical better than anything ever created. I’ve not had a box speaker in over 40 years. May as well expand my coffin to accommod... | |

| Shipping speakers from West Coast to East Coast Don’t wait a week! Say, listen, I’ll give you 24 hours to ship them or send me a refund. Light a fire under them, because 3 weeks has already been an eternity. | |

Some of us were born in the days when SS didn’t sound so good. SS has gotten much better. But then again, so have tubes. Today’s tube amps aren’t your Great-Grand... | |
| PrimaLuna EVO 400 v Cary SLI-100 Another recommendation of the Dennis Had Inspire products. For much less cost you can acquire a used Fire Bottle amplifier and an Inspire preamplifier. All Dennis Had products are each hand wired and soldered. It’s the best of the best way to desi... | |
| Anybody having trouble getting near-your-asking-price for used gear ? (Plz. no hype) Recently sold tube monoblocks for asking price. Recently sold tube preamplifier for asking price. So no problem with selling used gear. Where are you advertising? I use USAudioMart. | |
