| The value of Bad. Knowing what you don't want, is as valuable as knowing what you do. I "want" an excessive studio reverb KILL SWITCH in order that I can listen to Chaka Khan recordings sans what I "don't" want.Is that asking too much?DeKay | |

| Tube Amplifiers: Carver Crimson 75 wpc or Primaluna Monoblocks Can't locate/Google it now but saw a Don Sachs refurbished Harmon Kardon Citation II for sale recently.However, from experience, the little thing comes in at way over 50 pounds.DeKay | |

| Tube Amplifiers: Carver Crimson 75 wpc or Primaluna Monoblocks Decide upon the speakers first and then the amplifier.Also, what preamplifier is in the mix, or could you possibly be happy with an integrated?In such a small room you might be fine with 20 (or so) GOOD tube watts, which would increase your choice... | |
| Fanfare for the Common Man,...best recording in your experience? I have a John Williams version that I like (very, very stately), but don't recall the orchestra/symphony and am too lazy to search for the CD.Can't help but think of the Emerson, Lake and Palmer (SP?) version, but wish that that I wouldn't (think ... | |
| What is the Silliest Accessory You Have Ever Seen. The tweak where you had to complete/pass a rather expensive online LumberJack course and then adorn yourself in clothing of the opposite sex (while listening to your system). I mean...I could hear a little bit of improvement, but the brassiere str... | |
| C7 cord or C13 w/adapter for integrated amp? For $10 try the adapter, especially if you already have standard IEC power cords to try.I used one (adapter) on a Pionner CDR once that was from Take Five in Canada and it looks like the one in your link.Target sells them online and maybe Amazon.D... | |

| Increasing bass on floor standing speakers Don't know if it's been mentioned, but you could try placing them on soft footers (I usually recommend first trying something from around the house like cutting up an old mouse pad/rubber mat, et cetera).Does the Rotel's LF boost (6dB @ 100Hz) hel... | |
| Increasing bass on floor standing speakers Do you have another music source to try, aside from the TT?It could be the TT/cartridge setup.Also, what cartridge?I asume that you meant Visaton and if so see if anything looks similar here in order to let us know what general type of speaker you... | |
| Every heard of a Belles 150 Reference Amp with the Overkill label? Here's an old thread that mentions a few details.https://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?topic=18697.0Be curious as to what info you find.DeKay | |

| For auld lang syne, ..high-end companies you really liked that are gone.... Yes, Wards/JC Penny/Sears as well.I recall my mother buying some double knee jeans from one of them in the early/mid 60's and adding/sewing a 3rd knee patch to the outside.I was tough on clothes, and it's no mystery as to why both of my knees are ... |
