| If you have a CD Player, you need to do this periodically... You all must of cleaned out Amazon, because jerryg123’s link says item currently unavailable. JD | |
| Magico A5, Wilson SabrinaX, or PS Audio FR30? The A5’s would be my first choice also, but I never heard, seen or read a Review of nor do I know anyone who has heard the new PSA speakers. I’m sure they are good, but I don’t want to be the first kid on the block to have them. All the best. JD | |
| How do you get Happy as an Audiophile? mrd, we don’t have dispensary’s here, so I have to settle on listening to good music with my dogs on either side of me. 😀 All the best. JD | |
| KEF Blade Two - Unbelieveable martinman, I still haven’t heard either Blade, but still have hopes. I’m guessing that it doesn’t sound like any other speaker KEF sells. The design is totally different and so are the drivers and crossovers. All the best. JD | |
| KEF Blade Two - Unbelieveable yyzsantabarbra, Have you heard anything new about the meta update? I wonder what’s going to be involved in upgrading my Ref 5’s when the time comes? All the best. JD | |
| HOW CRITICAL ARE JUMPER CABLES Why do so many speaker companies use those gold plated things as jumpers? Until now I threw them away and used short pieces of speaker wire. Now I have the Kef Reference 5’s and they have the jumpers built in. You turn the knobs on the back. I’m n... | |
| RIP oregonpapa Oh how very sad. My thoughts go out to his family, He will definitely be missed. JD | |
| Introspective of this forum: "Does the Audiophile Community Have a Promlem?" I Say yes!!! And a Merry Christmas to oldhvymec and his family, including his chickens, ducks, turkeys and whatever the heck else he’s running naked with 😜 JD | |
| Has anyone tried Napster? Lol, All of my first thoughts. They say that they stream in 320MP3 and have millions of tunes. But like reubent said, I don’t click on unsolicited texts and I hope she doesn’t either. JD | |
| Not manufactured any more. Oh and oldhvymec, What a fun thread! JD | |
| Not manufactured any more. yogiboy, you beat me to it. The DQ10’s with a couple of Hafler amps bridged mono! I did some mods to them, like replacing the tweeters with Decca ribbon tweeters and I replaced most of the caps in the crossovers. Yeah, I do miss them. JD | |
| NORDOST SORT FUT VS. ISOACOUSTICS GAIA Critical Mass Doesn’t seem to have isolation feet for speakers or if they do, I missed them. The only thing bad about Gaia’s I’ve heard is the price and that you also have to buy their carpet spikes if you have a carpeted floor. Sorry, I haven’t... | |
| IS there such an animal? I have an Oppo and it plays everything! I’m using an external dac these days, but everything still works as it should. JD | |
| Choosing the right equipment It takes a special Dad to sell a hobby for his children and it takes some special kids, to want to repay him! If you cruise the Thrift stores, anything is possible. Over the years I’ve found turntables, integrated amps and speakers. All the bes... | |
| Comparing Speaker Cables I to have four pair of speaker cables and when I bought the KEF Reference 5’s, I tried all of them for a couple of days each and then picked the pair I liked the best. About seven weeks later, I did it again and I picked the same pair. I plan on d... |
