| CD Player Recommendations 5-8k range please help Hi Corvette_tuner, I agree with Tvad on this one, for your money, I don't think you will hear better than APL. I have not heard all the units recommended, but I have not heard better than the APL. Please read 711Smilin, and Boa2 for the list of pl... | |
| Looking to get into Vinyl Hi Baroque_lover,I don't agree with your limitation to buy new. At $The Music Hall is nice, but there is a substantial difference when you move to the Rega or better turntable.Also, I would suggest that you reserve $400-$800 for a good cartridge (... | |
| Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen Hi Drew,You have a lot of questions on the table, and I will not respond to all.You have already implicated the Vandersteen's, ...perhaps Tyler's would suit you better (I have no experience with the Tyler's).The Krell integrated will definitaly no... | |
| Naim x Ayre Hi Rodrigo,I have not heard these speakers, only Wilson Audio Sophia 1. My impression of the Sophia's was that they were very detailed and analytical. I own an Ayre K1x pre-amp and have heard most of the Naim items you are asking about.I think you... | |
| Used TT, Arm and Cartridge Hi Rem1954,I have listened to most of the turntables on your list, and have owned a Linn LP12 for 25 years, which I bought new. I would like to disclose that I am trying to sell a 2nd Linn currently. Under $2000, I would recommend the VPI or Linn.... | |

| what can go under an LP12? Hi Jaf2290,I agree with Drubin and have done exactly what he has recommended with my LP12 and Target shelf. The shelf is very rigid and low mass which results in very little energy being transfered into the record. You will find a very quiet backg... | |
| Purist or Kubala-which to buy for entire system I am still curious what qualities that Steve liked in the Kubala interconnects, and how they compared to the Purist. This tangent has been very entertaining and enlightening, but has not helped with the original question that Steve asked, and othe... | |

| Time to Uncork that '55 Metzner? Hi Mario,“Out of curiosity, when you wrote that you would not recommend the alteration to the Metzner, was this because of asthetics or sonics?”I made the recommendation primarily for ascetics. I don’t know what I would expect in the way of sonics... |
