| Is it just me or has A-gon become a high dollar I purchased over 100 mint LP's in the past week alone ranging in price from 50 cents to $1 each and have probably picked up 600 or so LP's in the past year. They are not all audiophile pressings, of course, but some are Shaded Dogs, Living Stereo,... | |
| What is the purpose of I am one of those "thin" wire people. There are also obscenely expensive IC's and speaker cables that use such thin wire and, of course, more reasonably priced ones. Even though I prefer thinner cable in general (the largest that I use, other than... | |
| Parts Connection - Now where do I find parts? But, so what, if they will be stocking and selling parts online for reasonable prices? Isn't this what it is all about? I will check them out once the new catalog is out. | |
| Rat Shack SPL meter calaibration I am pretty sure that the RS adjustments are archived in the FAQ section @ Audioasylum.com | |
| Inexpensive Amp and Speakers If you have local thrift/resale shops keep checking them out for receivers (they average $20-$40 in my area - LA) and I even run across ones from NAD from time to time. You will need to take along interconnects and speaker cables to test them @ th... | |
| Acoustic Guitar CD Recording/track to test Spkrs? Easy to find is the Clapton "Unplugged" CD (which I use for this test). I use track 13 (think that's it) because it also has a well recorded piano solo (kills two birds with one stone). I have even better recordings but prefer this one as I am ver... | |
| Need replacement for garden hose Audio Advisor Gumby D: Good luck on finding it used (some have purchased leftover portions, of whole kits, this way). I would love to pick up additional OTA as well to replace the internal wiring in some old components (it makes great hookup wire, though is a b... | |
| Small Room, Move Often, Speaker Suggestions. APV: Thanks for the info. I am using the Twins right now but will eventually want something more efficient for the living room. | |
| Need replacement for garden hose Audio Advisor Glen: I have never tried a balanced version as I do not have a need for one. Guess I deleted the digital cable pic in error when I was loading photos for my wife's Ebay stuff? The digital cable no longer exists anyway as I ended up using the cable... | |
| Need replacement for garden hose Audio Advisor Glen: I still need to see if the cable "floats". Thanks for reminding me. | |
| Small Room, Move Often, Speaker Suggestions. APV: What is the price (US) of the Amaze? | |
| Need replacement for garden hose Audio Advisor 47 Labs OTA cable. I have been using it over a year now for speaker cable and IC's. Try a searching the word(s) "Sakura" and/or OTA for more info. | |
| labratory tube amplifiers / wolcot amps I recall these amps being listed on Ebay some time back, but that is all that I know about them (the jist of the listing was like your story). Probably more deadly than the amps are the mail/parcel carriers and if you ship them take special care w... | |
| Single Driver Speakers??? Lowther, Moth Audio?? Royy:Here is a "single driver" website that you might find interesting.http://melhuish.org/audio/I have only listened to vintage Lowther's which were bright sounding and had some kind of a "reverb thing" going on with the midrange (noticable on vo... | |
| Is a dac better than an new cd palyer? Swampwalker: Never tried the Classe, but did end up with the Bel Canto 1.0 (and later the 1.1) DAC for over a year, which I enjoyed. I just found some of the popular DAC's to be too bright, thus not better, IMO. |
