| Is the "red dot" the same as R or L? Red normally means "right" or "positive" | |
| Looking for speaker to match with pass lab aleph3 Check out Silverline speakers. I am using the Aleph 3 with a pair of Sonatina I's with great results. Make sure you invest in a good after market power cord, like NBS. Gjrad is correct, 45 min. to an hour warm up for the best results. | |
| DH Labs Q10 or Analysis Plus Oval 9? I have both cables now, plus the Oval 9 jumpers. I prefer the Ovals and I am considering getting another run, so the jumpers will be for sale if you are interested. I also put the Ovals on the bottom and both leads of the Q-10 on top. Actually tha... | |
| Stay away from UPS. Never use UPS. You might be able to flatten the record by putting it between two pieces of glass, place it in the oven on the LOWEST SETTING for about 20min. or until the record is flat. If it is very warped put a weight on the top glass. | |
| What are some excellent mid -priced tuners? Check out Fanfare | |
| What would you do about a sleazy buyer?? I was small high-end dealer in the 90's. This is the sort of thing that happened all the time. To add insult to injury, many times I would find out later, they bought the same product, elsewhere at reduced cost .... send him a bill for your time .... | |
| Comparison ARC Classic 30 and VT-50 I have owned a Classic 30 and it is a very good amplifier. Never had any problems, sounds great and unless you are into ear-bleed volumes, the power output is more than enough for all but the largest rooms. I do recommend using ARC LitzLine speake... | |
| I need a source for threaded spikes Easy Brian, make them yourself. Buy some bolts that have the same thread as the female hole on the amp stand, make sure you get them a little longer than needed and they have a smooth (non threaded area) between the bolt head and the thread. Next,... | |
| Monarchy SM-70 to Model 33 interconnect question Yes, use the balanced inputs. You will be amazed at the difference the amps sound in the balanced mode (I have a pair of SM-70 Pros). I have not used their interconnects, but I think it is made of the same wire used inside their amps and preamps. ... | |
| Decent preamp WITH tone controls Check out this preamp on eBay. Might be just what you are looking for!http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1245125750 | |
| Dedicated power circuit I installed a dedicated circuit and used 10 gauge 3 conductor Romex, install double duplex boxes at each point instead of single. I think this is a must for every serious audiophile..... good luck ... | |
| Business In Portland, Oregon There are several in the metro area: The Art of Audio, Corner Audio, StereoTypes, Audio Alternative, Audio Gallery. Look them up in the Yellow Pages when you get into town. | |
| Digital Smear??? I don't blame them for banning you. It seems all you have used them for is to audition components you never intended to buy from them, thus wasting their time. You used their services and then bought elsewhere to save a few bucks. Well now, my fri... | |
| I promised myself I'd never do this I have an ARC SP14 also and really like it, but remember it is a hybrid and the only tube is in the phono stage. So when your line stage is activated, you are solid state all the way. Move the Logans out into the room as far as you can and away fr... | |
| Sonata/Sonatina with 3-5 Watts??????? I am driving a pair of Sonatinas with a flea powered amp and it works great. The room is not huge and I listen semi nearfield, but there is plentty of volume and surprising good bass, while not super loud, very extended. |
