| Full Range Speaker That Can Play Near Boundaries Thanks for your responses so far--some models mentioned here that I've never heard of so that is welcome. Kana--my current speakers are fabulous and I never thought I would part with them but we have put an offer in on a home where my listening ro... | |
| Best Used CD Player Under $500? Thanks all. I found some money and can now spend up to $750. Other suggestions? Also, a friend wants to get into the act and has $1500 to throw at a player. The rest of the system is Krell 300si integrated and PSB Synchrony One's. Thoughts? Thanks! | |
| Whest ps.30r Robm1: Can you comment in greater detail about your experience going from the PS.30R to the RDT version? Did you get to swap in the RDT without changing anything else in your system? How would you describe the performance gains relative to the ext... | |
| Whest ps.30r I'd be curious if anyone has used both the single ended and balanced outputs on the PS30R and whether there is a noticeable difference. I've only used the single ended and thus have not heard the unit in balanced configuration. | |
| Whest ps.30r Based on my experience in the same price range you will have a hard time doing "better" than the PS30R. You may find "different" but not necessarily "better". I ran the PS30R against several phonostages (ARC PH5, Acoustat PH1, EAR 834) and found i... | |
| Harbeth Compact 7-ES3 Speakers I think your room is too square and too small to use a subwoofer. I ran a pair of Compact 7's in an 11 X 11 room for a while (not by choice) and there was barely enough space for them. Yours at 12 X 14 should be fine, but borderline. I would sell ... | |
| Audio Research DSI 450 vrs. HD 220 against all tu Where can I find information or photos of the new DS450? Thanks! | |
| First Post, Looking to buy Amp& Pre, $7,000 If you are considering an ARC LS26 you should give the ARC SD135 serious consideration as a partner. Absolutely wonderful amp. | |
| Getting The Most Out Of My Scout No, I have not heard it yet and am certainly open to a change of heart but it just baffles me that it could be that much better given what I've read about the design elements. I'll have to give it a spin and see for myself. | |
| Getting The Most Out Of My Scout Well, I've read the Audio Beat review as well as (most) of the posts at the linked forum and I'm not convinced. First, I fail to see how a motor mounted to the plinth of the Classic (no matter how well isolated) can introduce less vibration than t... | |
| Getting The Most Out Of My Scout I'm wondering what makes the Classic a better table? I can't see substantial design or engineering improvements over the Scout series that would account for significantly better sound. Enlighten me please, Classic advocates. | |
| Getting The Most Out Of My Scout Doak: I thought of this and spent a fair amount of time looking for a table that would work in my application that would substantially outperform the Scout without spending more than double the price--I came up empty. With the XX2MKII now installe... | |
| Getting The Most Out Of My Scout OK, it was interesting. I began by checking the setup on my 20XM to see whether I got it right with the VPI jig and a basic Shure stylus gauge. First, I checked the tracking force. I had carefully used the Shure gauge and thought I had it set at 1... | |
| VPI Scout Rear Stub Measurement Worked beautifully--thanks. Now I can adjust the tracking force in minor increments without screwing up the azmuth. | |
| Bought Some Music Friday Still working through the pile...The Neil Young Archives remastered LP's are totally forgetable. I've now listened to both AGR and Harvest and my German pressings are at least as good. Also, the Archives versions come with crappy paper sleeves to ... |
