| So what would you recommend for my next upgrade? I have a Bottlehead pre that has some hum to it. Sounds like its time to get out the soldering iron and fix it. At least before I make a major commitment. | |
| Vendor war stories . . . good ones that is . . . Actually, I've got another one...about Thiel. Called them when my son tipped over my 1.5s and caused a tiny chip in the black paint. I called Thiel hopeing to get a paint color number that I could go match. The nice young gal who answered, hearing... | |
| Vendor war stories . . . good ones that is . . . Rello - I did tell the Bryston tech that it was struck by lightening, just waited until he'd had a chance to see it. It seemed like it made it a more interesting job for him. Happen to me with the iPod that was also on the same circuit . . . the r... | |
| So what would you recommend for my next upgrade? So Mensch & Williewonka, thanks. Looks like I've got some work/play to do here. I'm not sure if I can do justice to your suggestions until our construction project is done (90 days) but once that's in place, it will certainly be worth the effo... | |
| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? I have the same little integrated as Barry. And a war story behind it: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?ymisc&1391132247&openmine&zzDancub&4&5#Dancub | |

| So what would you recommend for my next upgrade? Gslone - got a vac cleaner so am starting to use. Courant - I do have a couple ADCs but not sure what to do with them. The records I want to transcribe are, so far, limited. Don't know what if anything else they buy me.....?No one's suggested an a... | |
| So what would you recommend for my next upgrade? OK, just got out of the real world and OMG, lots of opportunity here! So to summarize:'- Czarivey - yeah, I know, digial's the future. I do have plenty of storage (~6 TB), a fast connection and the itch but I'm a little hesitant to jump into anoth... | |
| So what would you recommend for my next upgrade? Zd542 - thanks...what phono amp would you think would be synergistic in my system? | |
| Thiel death do we part . . . Stevecham - that was my experience, too, and I bought used ones. Actually, now that you mention it, the guy I bought from might have sold them for that reason. | |
| Thiel death do we part . . . Just listened to one of the CDs in the Stones album we were discussing -not loud, wife still in town - and, yep, there's a real sense of "there" there. Thin sounding still to my ears but lots of stuff going on inside what was there. Might be the b... | |
| Thiel death do we part . . . Mapman - well heck, that's good idea. May have to wait until my significant other is out of town 'cause I think they need to be played loud. | |
| Thiel death do we part . . . So the responses here have far exceeded my expectations and I want to thank everyone for the insights. My own journey is now going to split into a couple paths. First, based on the responses, I think there's an opportunity to mitigate the impact o... | |
| Thiel death do we part . . . Hummm, another set of thought provoking suggestions. Just got the set up back together so will try out tweaking the speaker locations first and report back.I would look at a new cartridge (Onhwy61 & Mapman thx) but the issue I'm chasing now li... | |
| Thiel death do we part . . . Unsound - you know, I've heard that and I'll try that as soon as I get the system back together (building a custom "near field table" for it). However, it was when I brought the Thiels in close that it clicked in place. I know this can be a game o... |
