Tonearms for new Linn LP 12
I listened to an LP12 with the Robin arm at Alternitive Audio in Fort Collins Colo. and it was a very nice combination. He really knows his Linn TT's. I found it solid, musical and seemed like a resonable way to start an LP12 package. However ther... 
What's the deal with the Machina Dynamica Clock?
Music is an emotional thing. We listen to it because it inspires, sooths, excites and allows us to wonder. The only way this little clock can do what it's maker says is that after spending $99 on a $5 walmart clock I would guess that the buyers em... 
Arcam, Musical Fidelity questions...
I have auditioned the A5 and the Arcam FMJ 33 and really perfered the 33 but they were set up with different support pieces. I found it a little more musical and with slightly more depth to the soundstage. They were both very impressive but I did ... 
Dynavector 10 X 5 Or Other MC In Same Price Range?
I have a dynavector 10X5 and am very happy with it. I found it easy to set up, very musical and my little monitors do not lack for base. I would recommend it highly. 
Help educate Analogue rookie
I really like the sound of my turntable and now use it about 50% since upgrading to an Arcam FMJ33 CD player. The soundstage with my vinyl has a bit more depth, and is a little more expansive. The individual notes also seem to have more depth and ... 
Dynaudio 1.3SE v. Silverline SR17
Are the dynaudio 1.3SE still available? I thought that is was a limited edition and is no longer one their web site. I don't know anything about the silverlines but would like to know where I can get a pair of 1.3SE's, thanks 
Your thoughts would be appreciated..
I'm wondering if you might be best served to upgrade the lot. I use a Creek 5350SE and find it to be a fantastic amp. If you get a seperate power amp perhaps you could sell the creek and used the funds for a dedicated pre amp and upgrade both. 
Moon I-3 and Totem Forest?
I have found that a thin and irritating high end the most common attribute to new equipment. Give them a few weeks and I bet things smooth out. 
How's aboutnthese new Diamond B&W's???
I found all of the new B&W's Nautilus (805-800D) an improvement. Not all have diamond tweeters but all of them have improved I think. Warmer sound, easier to listen to for me. More musical. I understand that they have also simplfied the crosso... 
what's wrong Arcam FMJ cd33?
I also saw this, HiFi Choice has had a number of odd reviews. I was looking at an Arcam diva 192 and listened to it in comparison to the FMJ 33 and just couldn't leave the 33 behind. It was so musical and involving. The music really expanding out ... 
Creek 5350SE - Is it all that?
Jaybo, not all of the creek are made in china, I have heard some of the less expensive pieces are but the new Classic 5350SE is made in UK. I checked again on the chassis of the amp and it says "designed and made in the UK". One recommendation I w... 
Creek 5350SE - Is it all that?
I recently got a Creek Classic 5350SE with the MM phono board. It took a few weeks to break in and it really is a very nice amp. I noticed a marked increase in detail, range, depth and tightness of base. Soundstage is much bigger and required me t... 
A blood oath among Audiogonistas
Sfar,I think that if anyone took offense that they were looking for something to take offence to. The post was clearly for a little light hearted humor. Also, I deal with a number of sight impaired patients and I know of none that use all caps bec...

Best components with Dynaudio 52 SE
Erikfh, I listened to them side by side both were power by Classe integrated amp and CD player. Now there could have been some bias, I have a pair of 52SE, the salesman may have felt agreeable and my friend, who is not an audio buff, did not like ...
