Know of a "Dirt Cheap" tweak?
How about, not humming along improves perceived detail then?

Khrys: Yawning (shortly thereafter) adds detail.

Garfish: Since you mentioned the Thunderbirds, I may as well through in the Fab. Rhinestones, Electric Flag and (barf) Spooky Tooth. I have never really listened to SRV and wonder if he ever did a cover of the song "Trouble"? I searched the record...

Wsmatau: Sorry, no I do not. I just happened to see it one Sunday evening when I was a teenager. It was not pleasant to watch as Chet was somewhat hurt and embarrassed. I suspect that if there was any kind of a rehearsal, that Clapton held back a ... 
Help me find a smooth solid-state amp?
Nice speakers, IMO. I auditioned them twice and almost purchased them. I listened to them with ARC tube gear and a Classe integrated. They sounded better with tubes, but still great with the Classe. They also require, beleive it or not, around 500...

Swampwalker: After recent gear purchases my hi-fi budget for a changer is around $150.00. That is what makes the Aiwa "really" attractive. LOL. The $150.00 was originaly set aside for a used PC upgrade for my CAL Icon II as I am going to steal the...

Hi Ken: Still have not hooked it up and am waiting on my digital cable that had to be made up. I just upgraded the shipping to Fed Ex one day yesterday as I am getting a little antsy and would like to avoid dropping more money on a locally purchas...

Kthomas: I guess that I never looked at it that way. I used to patch in the multi disk player from the mini system for her, but we decided that the little seperate system would be better utilized in the spare bedroom/computer room. She misses the ...

Thanks for the info Jtinn. I just added a used Bel Canto instead of going SACD which was better on my budget as I was able to upgrade speakers as well. I listened to the inexpensive top loading Sony and it sounded about the same as the Arcam CD pl... 
Will a DAC mellow Denon DCM 360
Dark: Search the forum under "entry level" without the word and. Ehider is referring to the XC-35M now discontinued but still available online. I just saw one for $149.00 new when I searched the web with "xc-35m". I beleive that the group was also...

Calm down Gthirteen: Just pour the soder into one of your airline beverage cups (that is if you have not cut holes in the bottems of "all" of them). And if you had not eaten so many of those peanut packs, you would not be so thirsty.

Ehider: Does the Aiwa have an RCA digital out? Or what outputs does it have? Also what DACS did your group have good results with?
