| Power Cord Challenge I'm close to San Jose and very interested in the results of this experiment, but I don't like the idea of putting money on the line. Why is that necessary? Dan | |
| Trelja in New York My show report. Friday was pretty disappointing. I was annoyed at the layout of the hotel, the crowds, signage and labeling, and disappointed by the sound in most rooms. Plus, it seemed that more than half the attendees were either in the industry... | |
| Favorite of Dick s Picks Danlevy? I'll be damned!Not Dick's Picks, but I'm very fond of two Arista releases--2/11/69 and the Ladies and Gentlemen...4/71 collection. Great sound on the second one, and that particular configuration of the band (The Quintessential Quintet) w... | |
| Martin Logan Don t Rock Try to hear the Innersound Eros, an electrostat hybrid (bass is via a dynamic driver in a transmission line). They are $6K new. I had them in the house for an evening a couple of weeks ago. They did a lot of very impressive things, but the capper ... | |
| Basis or Michell GyroDec Thank you, one and all. Both the Arcici stand and the wall mounted stand are not going to work out, unfortunately. Dan. | |
| Aerosmith SACD I've been waiting for the Springsteen Live in NY on SACD, which Music Direct now lists as "Indefinitely Delayed." What do you suppose that means? | |
| Technics SP10-Mk2 Rega RB300 Combine The Technics is direct drive. It was Harry Pearson's reference table in the late 1970s and was made from then until the mid 80s in one form or another. | |
| Levinson 360s + Sony 9000ES ? Which transport were you using with the 360s? | |
| help I am lost Once approach you might consider is to call The Cable Company (1-800-FAT-WYRE) and they will loan you several good candidates to try for yourself. | |
| Placette Audio Volume Control I have the line stage, which is active in the sense of being fully buffered but does not have added gain. Not the best for ergonomics, but sonically it is as everyone has said. When I first put it in my system, the word that kept coming to mind wa... | |
| Best audio racks I'm leaning towards the Salamander Synergy racks. Not the last word in sonic performance, but these systems offer infinitely adjustable shelves plus drawer units as well as other useful accessories, and they are reasonably handsome and not terribl... | |
| What ever happened to Direct-to-Discs? When Reference Recordings issued the Dick Hyman direct-to-CD, there was a blurb in Wired mocking them for not understanding their own technology. As I recall, what Reference tried to do made a lot of sense. But Wired, who of course understand the ... | |
| Spendor, Harbeth...why so hot ? I am hoping that Harbeth Monitor 40 will be on display at the Hi-Fi show next month. I have wanted to hear them ever since Robert Greene's review in TAS. I should add, however, that I bought a pair or Spendor SP-1/2's after reading his review and ... | |
| I am stunned I don't mean to throw cold water on this good discussion of the merits of biwiring, but if I read your post correctly Liguy, the jaw-dropping experience you had was when you first played your new speakers in your system at home. You seem to attrib... | |
| Mark Levinson 39 I would prefer not to compalin in this way, but I feel compelled to express my disbelief at receiving negative votes for the post I made above. In a thread that contained a fair bit of sniping, I tried to give a balanced and honest assesment of my... |
