| Best Rock Album in 2012 That new Jimmy Cliff is the real deal. I heard an interview with Jimmy on NPR. Really nice. Sounds like his early stuff. | |
| Music to Impress my Kid's Friends? I would get Jack White's 'Blunderbuss'. The mastering is amazing as is the music itself. The variety of instrumentation is impressive to say the least. I would imagine it would appeal to most ages. It starts off heavy as in rock and then transcend... | |
| Magnepan Service HORRIBLE??? Has anyone ever brought up the possibility that Magnepan runs a lean organization? In this economy, I surely wouldn't have someone readily available to inspect damage on a speaker they didn't even buy from me. I would think that coming off a two w... | |
| Where's the trade off? For the record, I'm not thinking of selling my Rogue. I'm just thinking about having both solid state and tube. On a happy note, I just swapped out my 12ax7's with some JJ Electric cheapos that Rogue sent me (long plates) and they have a much more... | |
| Where did you go after Harbeth? Sebastien, you've replaced your gear more than anyone I'm familiar with. I thought about suggesting that you spend a lot of time on your decision but I enjoy following you through your journey to your final destination, if there is one. You've own... | |
| Magnepan Service HORRIBLE??? Isn't all this the sellers responsibility? Was this an Audiogon transaction? | |
| EL34 SE 12wpc for $200 new...anybody tried this? Looks really nice. Great way to throw together a second system . For that price, I'm not sure you can go wrong. | |
| Faceplates Silver or Black??????? I switched from black to silver about 5 years ago and I'll probably continue on that path. I'm considering a new integrated and black is not a choice from the manufacturer. I actually liked how my old black gear got dusty because then I cleaned it... | |
| Where's the trade off? I remember when I first brought home my Rogue. Everyone told me to let it warm up first (and I think the manual says that too) but of course my wife and I couldn't wait so about 3 minutes after I turned it on I turned up the volume. It was serious... | |
| Compare Ayre, LFD, Luxman integrateds? So let's compare these amps. There's no info. directly comparing these amps, just little snippets about them all over the place. Has anyone compared the three brands? | |
| Does Harbeth M30.1 Sound More Open That Its Predec I would hold off until some reviews start to surface. Harbeth doesn't make superficial changes to their speakers so I'd imagine there's a substantial difference. Reviews are going to compare the two which will be a nice read to say the least. | |
| Where's the trade off? On another note. I had new Rotel separates before the Rogue, the best they make right now. These were the top of the line Rotel amp / pre-amp combo. It was the most shrill sounding gear I've ever herd in my life. AT first I thought I had to break ... | |
| Where's the trade off? Point well taken Meiwan. I do have dedicated power and even a cryoed outlet ( I was going through the freak phase ). What I need to do is get a chance to listen to some of the options out there and up until now, I haven't had the chance. The Rogue... | |
| Where's the trade off? I really appreciate the information on the MF and LFD. I'm going to look into taht. I read a bit about the MF A32 as well as the LFD gear and have heard only good things about them. I'd be curious if anyone has experience with Luxman. I was intere... | |
| Would you trust a local dealer to help you put I don't think Cmalak lives in a dream world at all. My shop is The Analog Shop in Victor NY. The owner (Bob) prefers you to set up an appointment. If you set up an appointment, he blocks out his calendar for you. Once you walk in the door, he lock... |
