Offer only valid for Dazman. Batteries not included. One per customer. Some assembly required. Absolutely no refunds :P Besides, I sold the Jolida a few years back. I heard the AN CD2 is much improved by completely covering it with Shatki Stones!

If a stock JD100 with stock tubes emphasizes your treble I'll come over and clean your garage. Keeping with Tvad's new fangled audio speak. One of these posters doesn't know "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot" they are talking about! It's great player. Sounds... 
Resolution Audio Opus 21 or GNSC moddedd 50/55

New R Series Rel Subs
I am in the market for new Sub for my HT. I'll check MJ out. I have been leaning in the DD-18 or 15 direction but the Rel had also piqued my interest. I havent heard any of these so I have my work cut out! 
New R Series Rel Subs

Choosing the right Bryston amp

ss players vs tube players
Trelja, Speaking of the "useless adjective list" I would like to thank you for making me feel completely self conscience when describing any attribute possibly related to sound! ...Of course I'm just ribbin' around with ya! 
ss players vs tube players
I like pie!Seriously, ...both! I am running SS now, but it's a very tubelike SS (pirated straight from Trelja's useless Adjective list)! 
Multi Chassis Isolation?
Tobias, Thank you again. The FIM 305 Bearings look very attractive. Both stylistically and price! I may very well give them a try.For now I have the BDR cones and thin pucks under the transport chassis and Sorbothane feet under the power supply. I... 
Advice about warm, gentle speakers...
