| Rockwell: audiophile term "just like a pedophile" Jafant-A very disturbing post. There is nothing funny about children being abused. Comparing an audiophile with that form of mental illness is absurd! | |
| Why aren't Rush fans more audiophile-natured? 2112-3x platinum and Moving Pictures-4x platinum are the most "commercial" releases by Rush. There "keyboard" based recordings never went multi-platinum. | |
| Returned to Albums/ Vinyl after 30 years Congrats on getting back to vinyl!!! When purchasing used your better off paying a little for a lot. I have had on several occasions where a sealed(nos)was warped. Unless it's a highly prized recording or a must have never over pay! | |
| Focal micro utopia be VS Dynaudio C1 Nvp-Great post! | |
| Replacement for Monitor Audio RX6 If you are considering a preamp, consider a new($1495) Onkyo 3000 reference series. Comments have been very positive regarding the entire Onkyo reference series components. I would hold off on new speakers. With the preamp being the strongest link... | |
| Audiophile music The Knack-Get the Knack(first pressing)is a very good recording especially in the bass region. There is more then enough well recorded music(all genres)to last several lifetimes(lol). Don't obsess over a few poorly recorded favorites of yours, we ... | |
| LFD Integrated - Please talk me out of buying one Save some money and look for a Sonneteer Orton. Many claim it has "tube like" qualities. It appears well made and it might even sound better then the over hyped LFD? | |
| What is your favorite 1 hit wonder from the 70's? Several others posted "Jackie Blue" but since OMD had fairly strong LP sales I thought they just might have another top 40 hit. "If You Wanna Get To Heaven" off the first(ST) LP hit #25 on the Billboard Hot 100. Here is my top 10 1 hit wonder(no o... | |
| Eminent Technology LFT8b I was considering these a couple years ago but my local dealer was a clown(being nice) so I moved on, your lucky to be able to order direct. Don't worry about the 83db/spl spec, some claim the specs(85db) on the Maggies are jacked up. The latest m... | |
| Good inexpensive temporary speakers Go real cheap($250-$350?) and pick up a used pair of Usher S-520's. If you want a better monitor a used Revel M20/22 are about as good as it gets for about $1k. | |
| Ortofon Quintet Cartridges Rhljazz-THX! Finding an affordable cartridge that has a full midrange without coloration is difficult. I was also considering the Goldring-Legacy but the treble is claimed to be slightly rolled off. With the Q-Black do you find yourself wanting mo... | |
| Floorstanding Speaker Feedback If you like the Martin Logan sound consider a used Montis. I've read the Montis is the most seamless ML speaker to date. Of the speakers you mentioned Vienna Acoustics has the edge in build quality and aesthetics. The relaxed treble on the VA migh... | |
| Ortofon Quintet Cartridges Rhljazz-That's a very strong statement regarding the Q-Black, congrats on finding a reasonably priced cartridge! I'm using an AT-OC9mk2 on a Rega P9/Allnic 1200 but would like a little more fullness/body/texture/fluidity without adding coloration.... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? (2) 1970's pop/rock masterpieces, Doobie Brothers -Toulouse Street and Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band-Night Moves! | |
| Why Merlins sound better then Sonus Faber Does Merlin offer a neutral floorstanding speaker with bass down to 40hz for $3500? The Venere 3.0 screams potential! I heard the 3.0 being pushed by a Integra 125w/ch HT amp, it sounded fine but I could hear the potential lurking. The SF Venere 3... |
