| Pink Floyd DSOTM in various versions I have the Japanese Pro-Use LP and the Harvest CD (first US version -- actually pressed in Japan as US did not have manufacturing facilities back then).The LP smokes everything it has been A/B'd with over the years. Of course I no longer have a tu... | |
| Which warm sounding cd player for under $400? I liked the NAD 541i but wouldn't call it warm. I sold it and got the Minimax tube CDP ($700). | |
| Eastern Electric Minimax CDP Build quality clearly favored the Minimax.I never really heard either the Xindak or the Minimax with the stock tubes.Sound wise, I felt that the Minimax and Xindak (with the best tubes inside) were very close, maybe the Minimax had a tad more deta... | |
| Specialty Audio Source New Tube CD Player You're right, it is the Bada that is going for $579 at NYSound. Good catch. | |
| Specialty Audio Source New Tube CD Player It resembles the exterior of the Eastern Electric Minimax from the outside (without the variable headphone out). I have no idea what the insides are. | |
| Doors 24-bit remasters..... How's the quality on these things? | |
| Which is better, Jolida or Cayin? Very happy with my Cayin TA-30. Something about the circuit boards in the Jolida v. point-to-point wiring in the Cayin were a definite vote in my favor for the Cayin. | |
| Stock Tubes on Cayin TA-30? Has anyone rolled the Electro-Harmonix 6CA7/EL34 Big Bottles? | |

You can pick these up for $8.49-9.49, and free shipping is $25 or more.I think some folks believe that the discs sold through clubs are ... | |
| C542 vs. C541i If you are looking for an NAD 541i, go to www.saturdayaudio.com, in Chicago. They have new ones full warranty for $299. I doubt you can beat the price. I bought one a month ago.Now the real question is: is the 542 worth $150-200 more than the 541i... | |
| Greatest rhythm sections Gotta disqualify the Who w/ Moon even though I love them. Moon couldn't keep a beat unless he a friggin metronome blasting in his headphones. Now if you want to talk most destructive (self and equipment) drummers, he would certainly get my vote. | |
| Questions for Soliloquy fans I asked Dave Berman at Soliloquy the difference between the 5.0 and the 5.01 and this is what he sent me:First the cabinet is better built, more durable and better looking. It is comprised of 1 thick medite compressed at 11,000lbs per sq. inch, t... | |
| Best monitor against wall I have the Soliloquy 5.0s and as they are rear ported, I think that you would want a minimum of 1-2 feet of space behind them (Of course I only have 1 foot and am probably giving something in basss response). Any one have any success with these cl... |
