| Audiophile grade country Ricky Skaggs-Live in London(CD). This was recorded and mixed using the 3M 32 track digital recorder. Most importantly it gets the tonality and timbre right, producing a relaxed and liquid sound. Even if the bass and treble are not SOTA there still... | |
| Retail? The retail listed should be when the seller purchased the item. Some sellers are very sensitive if you ask the date of manufacture of a component. | |
| Best of old model speakers under $1800 vs my Alons Of the speakers you listed the Aerial 10T's are my top choice. When set up right the Aerial's are world class speakers even when compared with current standards. I'm not a B&W 801 expert but I do realize there are many models in that series. S... | |
| Mod 1200MkII or Buy Rega RP6? or MMF-7 Package Checkout the Rega RP6 with your own ears, forget the reviews! Seriously consider upgrading your phono-pre before replacing your Denon 103. | |
| Van Halen or Van Hagar I'm in the minority giving a small edge to Sammy Hagar. His vocal skills and songwriting are superior to DLR. VH also matured with Hagar especially on a favorite of mine "Feelin'". They could also get down and dirty with what I consider their best... | |
| How important is an audio rack? Rhljazz/InnaThe rack the salesman was raving about was from Box Furniture Co. I'm curious if your familiar with this rack? | |
| What 6922 tube will improve bass definition? Thanx, for all the recommendations. I'll give the Genalex GL tubes a try. If these don't meet my requirements the Mullard ECC88 are next. Is there a specific(label-color)that is the premium version of this tube? | |
| What 6922 tube will improve bass definition? MechansDo the Gold Lion reissues have any hardness or stridency in the mids or treble? I currently have that problem with the Sovtek tubes, especially when the volume is turned up. I don't have a problem if the GL are slightly forward or lively. T... | |
| Best Speakers for around $2000 Consider the Elac BS244 monitor. You will not find better clarity($2k new) due to the Jet 3 tweeter. | |
| Wanting to get into Vinyl - Need help You might want to consider the Rega RP-1 with a Goldring 1042. It will retain the 2ce sig. smothness but will also wake up the laid-back sound. The 1042 is good enough to survive several table upgrades so the $500 is well spent. You will also need... | |
| Need advice on new TT, arm and cartridge. If your looking for a "set and forget" type of table consider the Luxman PD-171. From the info and photos this table appears to be very well built and hassle free. I don't know if this table(Jelco/arm)will meet your standards, but at $6k this leav... | |
| which turntable to buy for $1500 best value ? On the WTL website the back side of the Simplex is visible where made in Beijing is proudly displayed. Where the back image of the Amadeus is on an angle and not visible. Whether that was intentional, that's your call. I have nothing against Opera... | |
| which turntable to buy for $1500 best value ? The problem with the Well Tempered Simplex and Amadeus is Opera Audio is building them in China for Well Tempered Labs. The Simplex could be the best sounding $2k table, but WTL needs to be more upfront about where the Simplex/Amadeus are manufact... | |
| T+A Power Plant ... any opinions? Is this the latest model? The treble(problem with most class D amps)is claimed to be an improvement with the current model. I have NOT heard the T+A Power Plant, but I did demo the ARC DSi 200($6000)and was disappointed. FWIW the best class D tech... | |
| What contact cleaner do you recommend? Thanx for the suggestions. The Kontak appears to be what i'm looking for. The Stabilant 22 is more lubricant then cleaner. Has anyone used Kontak on tube pins? If so were the results positive? |
