| Uh oh, I'm hooked - just fixed my NAD CD player You da' man! | |
| Entry level tube amps? I don't know what your power requirements are, but within your budget, these should give you a taste of what you're looking for. http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?ampstube&1248963171&/Cary-Audio-Aes-Six-Pack-silverUsual disclaimers, n... | |
| Quality speakers that don't need tons of power If 100wpc is your benchmark, I think there are probably more speakers than not that can be adequately driven by that level of power. Certainly, some speakers like more power to sound their best (depending on room size, etc.), but 100wpc will drive... | |
| I2S mods on Squeezebox I would suggest asking Steve Nugent at Empirical Audio. | |
| Biasing Six Pac help I doubt it would hurt the amp, but it may not bias as accurately. I would ask Cary to be sure. | |
| I Just Don't Hear It - I wish I did So, what is the sciene behind the Margigo feet that makes them so good? I looked at the website, but didn't find any explanation. There's one review, but no analysis there either. Do they provide some sort of mechanical response to vibration, or i... | |
| Mark Knophler; recommended music?? Yes, JJ Cale is a hidden gem. This tread prompted me to get out his "definitive collection" CD. Great laid back bluesy rock with a great groove. Good on a rainy day with nice glass of wine. | |
| SACD vs RBCD players Why are there not more SACD-player manufacturers in the high end?Because it's a niche format. Nobody's buying SACD's but a small dedicated group of audiophiles. If you only have a dozen discs, I would not make SACD the priority over redbook. I wou... | |
| Best Used Floorstanders for Rock & HT under $2100? I would look at the Paradigm line as well. You get the Studio 100's used in your price range and they will rock the house. Great for HT as well. The Tylers are good choices too. | |
| High efficiency bookshelf speakers for 300B SET Maybe look at the Omega line of speakers. http://www.omegaloudspeakers.com/products/ | |
| Joule Electra LA150 MkII or Lamm LL2 Deluxe? It looks like the LL2 has been recently been upgraded to the LL2.1. Anybody heard the new version? Looks like it may be mostly cosmetic/functional, but they website references new "parts", etc. Also, it looks like it now has a switchable gain feat... | |
| Need Recomendation for Acoustic Zen Adagio Speaker Acoustic Zen Satori's are excellent. | |
| I Just Don't Hear It - I wish I did The only changes that have been significantly noticable in my system are component changes, modifications to equipment (and sometimes those are iffy) and speaker cable /interconnect changes. I have yet to hear a footer make much, if any, differenc... | |
| Devore Super 8s vs Acoustic Zen Adagios I haven't heard either, but from the anecdotal evidence and reviews I have read, it seems that the sweet spot for the Super 8's is with low to medium power tube amps. I understand the designer often recommends the low powered Shindo gear, for exam... | |
| Biasing Six Pac help I haven't owned these, but certainly the amp has to be turned on. It's not clear if you need to unhook the speaker cables and/or interconnects. FWIW, the parent company (Cary) suggests disconnecting the amps from speakers and sources before biasin... |
