| New Stereophile recommended list I agree with Tubeperson. Stereophile is a shadow of it's former self; Listener is a good read, but generally thin on actual audio substance; TAS, while far from perfect, seems to have the best balance of writing and usable information.Regarding un... | |
| HALCRO Amplifiers I e-mailed the company after reading the review in the current issue of TAS. The closest dealer to me (Tulsa,OK) is in Virginia, so I guess I won't be listening to the amps any time soon. I sure do like their design concepts, though. | |
| Entry level balanced cables? Regarding Mryan's comments about "converting" your single-ended (RCA) cables to balanced (XLR) cables, please be aware that the option to do this is going to vary by manufacturer. I have single-ended MIT cables and contacted the manufacturer about... | |
| Linear Tracking Turntables - Best?? I owned the Goldmund Studietto turntable/arm and found it to be extraordinarily revealing. Once set up and dialed in for optimum performance, it was very straightforward to operate. This linear tracker was also a relative bargain ($3,000 new) comp... | |
| Preamp Necessary? There is a previous thread on this topic in the Sound Advice section titled "CD direct to Amp," but, in brief, yes, all you need to go direct to amp is a CD player with variable outputs/volume control. You can get a used Sony XA7ES in that price r... | |
| Anyone Know Perreaux 2150B? I have owned a 2150B for over a decade now and it is a fine amp for what it was designed to do. It is rated at 200/wpc of MOSFET output power and has good headroom and can drive virtually any speaker load. I originally bought mine to drive Acousta... | |
| Need help w/older Krell pre-amps???? I was in a similar situation to you not long ago. In fact, I also own a KSA-150. The first question you need to answer is whether or not you need a phono stage. The 7B comes with a built-in phono stage - it is optional on the other two units and t... | |
| ML no39, Wadia 850, Classe 1.0, or Sony? Tom, It is a rare individual indeed who has actually had more than one of these players in their possession. I think that is why you are getting feedback refering only to one player, and not any direct comparisons between the players. Unfortunatel... | |
| U.P.S., have you had any problems with them? I didn't notice at first that Hello HiFi was actually the poster of this message/request. Here's what I don't understand - it is evident from all your various posts on this site that not only does your company not ship via UPS, but you also have g... | |
| U.P.S., have you had any problems with them? My company ships over 100,000 packages every year with UPS and while there is an occasional mishap, overall, they are a superb shipper. They almost always deliver on time, and when they don't, you don't have to pay - even on ground shipments! You ... |
