The "Very Best Record Cleaning Formulation" How about Isopropyl Alcohol? | |
AES/EBU cable shootout A difference in frequency response with an AES/EBU digital connection? Technically impossible! | |
Real world Loudspeakers what does very good cost ? How about going acoustic? Lots of advantages: 1. Low carbon footprint. 2. Low price. 3. Low Fidelity! 😁 | |
How do you find time to enjoy your $$$ speakers and system? I undestand your problem. Many years ago, I used to do post production and listened to music 12 hours a day. I must confess that I listen to more music in the car than I do on my seven or eight different hi-end systems. | |
Incredible improvement in sound quality I use the vacuum cleaner every other day. Just to get rid of those cobwebs between my two ears. | |
Inherited a pair of JBL 4350 -- Need Advice Great speakers! They need plenty of power. I have the second, updated, series with the alnico woofers (gray cones, not white paper) and I drive them with two MC1000s and one MC500 through the original external crossover. The foam on the four woof... | |
"High end" store snobbery Based on 40 years of experience, Hi Fi dealers often tend to be kind of rude, but once you make friends with them, things often change. I live in Milan, Italy, and I must say that the old Hi Fi dealers in my city (this was in the Eighties and Nin... | |
Digital is far better than vinyl Over the years there has been a fundamental misconception regarding the quality of digital recordings over analog recordings. The first thing to do is actually compare a vinyl pressing of the same recording present on a CD - naturally, on a high ... | |
The Denon POA 8000 mono amps? I used to own a pair of POA8000s some 30 years ago. They didn't sound good at all, so I sold them and purchased a McIntosh MC7300. For years I had desperately wanted a pair of POA8000s beacuse I had seen them on an old Denon brochure in the early ... | |
Tonearm for Technics SP-15 I own two Technics EPA500 bases and the whole set of arms to go with them, including the EPA250 with the detachable headshell and the straight arm with the T4P attachment. I honestly do not like this tomearm much. There is a lack of accuracy in ho... | |
A little help please I always dreamt of having a Naka 1000ZXL. I finally found one in 1992. I had it checked and serviced by an authorized service center. I tried it once and, ever since, it has been sitting on the shelf, unused. No use for a cassette deck any longer... | |
I need to get rid of my JBL 4311s don't I? I love the JBL 43xx series. The 4315 are an extraordinary design. The performance is outstanding. They are probably the most modern sounding speaker in the 43xx family. Very analytical and extreemely rewarding from a dynamic point of view. They c... | |
mcintosh MC 7270 or mc 7200 I personally prefer the MC7270, which has the autoformers. It is the first really modern amplifier built by McIntosh. F.Y.I. I have owned both. | |
Differences between MAC C100, C200 and C46 The two are basically identical. Please be aware of the fact that the first series of the C100 were flawed by a problem related to the volume control, which was subsequently upgraded. I believe the second series C100 has exactly the same volume co... | |
Revox cassette decks I used to own the B710 and then the B710 MKII. Both units were beautifully built and offered outstanding performance; unfortunately, they were both plagued by mechanical problems related to the transport mechanism. They needed to be cleaned repea... |
