Anyone heard the Toshiba EMI Pink Floyds
to make things even more confusing, i've just found some floyd reissues done in 2001 that are produced in the UK or Australia. I don't know from the limited information available online where or when these "albums" were mastered. there was also a ... 
Anyone heard the Toshiba EMI Pink Floyds
charlie: the emi/capitol reissues that justicles mentions (but for a couple of "anniversary editions") were remasters done in 1992-94 by doug sax at The Mastering Lab in LA; they were released last year (these also appear to be the same series not...

Rowland Model 5 vs. McCormack DNA-1?
fpeel: i'd suggest looking at a pair of jrdg model one's run bridged. you should be able to find a pair within your budget. these amps are of a newer design than the 5, put out 360 w into 4 ohms and, in my experience sound much better than the 5, ...

tireguy: the great majority of people who call themselves (or allow others to call them) "audiophiles" have been entranced by two-channel audio-only systems. those who have been into the hobby as long as i, have gone from 45rpm mono singles to ep'... 
Maintaining an Even Keel.
dekay: good thoughts. the "level", of course, should be measured by a round bubble level or similar omnidirectional device. BTW, if your cdp's tray "sags" when extended, i'd think about getting a new cdp. -kelly 
Opinion on Sota speakers
real funky with early, ugly focal drivers that required special sound anchor stands to tip 'em up. spicas were better sounding and less expensive. both are now very dated, tho. -kelly 
counterfeit NBS cables
