| Washington Post article on MoFi vs. Fremer vs. Esposito MoFi admits they only sold $9 million in records last year. So any lawsuit could potentially have them filing for bankruptcy, killing them for good. That’s the price you pay for not being upfront about your operations. It is a shame too, for h... | |
| MoFi controversy Too many of you don’t get it. Why is MoFi’s process a mystery? Why aren’t they transparent about their products? Why is their only interview with a retailer who gets free or discounted products who then in turn serves up softball questions? I he... | |
| Best Sound Track Ever Vote for One The Good, Bad, and Ugly was Ennio Morricone, Fatman. Ennio Morricone was so talented he scored some 200 films in his lifetime. | |

| After the thrill is gone Martin Logan loyalist for life. I’ve owned nearly every ML speakers under the sun. Retired now, Spires and a Deph i, my journey is over. Tube integrated’s, turntables, I’m good. And hat’s off to under $10k systems! | |

| Upgrading from Primaluna Stick with tubes. It’s always a challenge in a small room because you’re forced to put your gear exactly where it shouldn’t be placed. I agree with the consensus suggestions that you should address your room and maximize its possibilities. Is it p... | |
| Is a separate phono pre really necessary? Depends on your gear. I had a SS phono stage in a Carver Ultimate receiver that sold for $5k that sounded pretty good! My PS Audio phono pre was a bit better but not that much better. To spend $2k for a separate phono pre I’d say only if your budg... | |
| Dust cover up or down? Goes without saying. Off! | |
| Pass INT-25 better than Wilsenton R8? I have an R8. I’ve been in audio for 30 years. I’ve never had better sound. I’m driving Martin Logan Spires. I have all the headroom I need. Do I feel the need to sample anything else? Absolutely not. I’m very content. Vinyl is sublime. I have the... | |
| Can a Amp be "timeless" and compete with todays amps? Plinius! For sure. |
