| Review: Sony SCD-1 Audiocom-UK upgrade j.d.: EXCELLENT post. don't wanna' be too pushy, but do you mind telling us the cost of the mods? _kelly | |
| Avalon or ProAc? dma: i'm very partial to avalons, having owned 3 different pairs. i'm also a fan of the "british sound" manifested especially in proacs. your ears ought to be the final arbiters of your decision. IMO, of all speakers mentioned, the opus is by far ... | |
| Center Channel Amp Recommendations why not get another pair of x-600's, using one for your center and the second for an unpowered sub? 'course you'll likely need an excellent outboard xover, but, hey, you've already been committed (i mean that in the nicest possible way). -kelly | |
| Girlfriends and wifes, how do YOU cope? suzy: what a great story from "the other side." my bride of 34 years and i have a kinda unwritten agreement; every time i make a major upgrade, she goes to europe. seems to work....so far. -kelly | |
| Power cord for Rowland Model 10? i know several owners of jrdg 10's who use the model ii from the custom power cord company. it retails for only $300 and can be found for much less, new and used. -kelly | |
| Power amp for Avalon Eclipse Classic vtin: the accuphase a-50v is, to my ears, more neutral than the jrdg 8, is faster and has a less laidback presentation. the accuphase also has more headroom and, therefore, has more controlled "slam" than the jrdg, even tho the output rating of th... | |

| Hales System II Signature sknnyc: whew, that was at least 2 bankruptcies ago. haven't heard em' in years but remember they sounded good, for their time, with classe's, of their time. -kelly | |

| Power amp for Avalon Eclipse Classic vtin: i'm not sure whether you're referring to the discontinued JRDG model 6, which is a monoblock, or the current mc-6, which is configuarable as a 2-6 channel amp. the monoblock 6's and that model 8 are both excellent choices to drive the eclips... | |
| What does "jitter" sound like???? marakanetz: you say "The ideal DAC does not have any oversamplings" really? from where does your information or opinion derive? -kelly | |
| Equipment Stand placement? kthomas: earlier this year, i reconfigured my system placement to replicate what megasam calls the "theoretical ideal set-up." my equipment rack is now on the right-side wall, aft of the first reflection point. the only thing between my speakers i... | |
| What are the best CD-changers? sctazmon: the answers to your questions, from my admittedly biased point of view, are: (1) yes; (2) no. -kelly | |
| What tube preamp to get to smooth out the sound????? suzy: so you gonna' tell us what the $2K cable was and its $.5K replacement. i'm all ears (kinda like chas., the prince of wales). -kelly |
