| "Best" DAC for a grand or less If the Rega DAC sounds anything like the Apollo CD player, go for it...The Rega DAC also has XLR outputs! | |
| ARC SP-8 to SP-17? A few lines to defend the LS-2.When mated with a CEC drive, Theta DAC, ARC VT-120 and Dunlavy SC-IV.2 (all Dunlavy wire), made heavenly music.No way anything could shame it. | |
| Speakers with Most good reviews in last ten years If I were buying, I'd be auditioning: Genesis 7.1F, Thiel 3.7, Wilson Sophia III.I heard the 7.1F at last T.H.E. Show last month and was mighty impressed. | |

| Are the Bryston 4B SST good with the Mag 3.6 I heard the 3.7s at T.H.E. Show last week.I thought the sound was remarkably good.It may have been too much volume but I thought the upper midrange was a bit "shouty" or hard.Could have been the room.Otherwise, great sound. | |

| Legacy Classic HD Took a trip to the factory once (Springfield, IL) and heard most of the line (Whisper, Focus, etc.).The Classic (not HD?) was the best of the lot IMO.I'd really like to hear the corian cabinet version. | |
| DEMAND DSD Doug Sax says he'd rather listen to HD formats available on Blu-Ray than to vinyl.I'll go with Blu-Ray. | |
| Tweaks I'd like to see . . . How about a vacation rental cabin?Built underground with five foot concrete all around, impeccable room treatment and purified A/C.I'd say 50 X 50 feet with 20 foot ceilings?Just specify what components should be waiting when you arrive. | |
| Warming up the ARC LS2B Doesn't someone make a tubed buffer "black box" that is insertedbetween the source and preamp?Google yielded: Pacific Valve Yaqin CD-1 ($200)and the ZBOX from Decware ($449).This might help. | |
| HDMI 1.3a vs. 1.4a HDMI 1.4 allows 3D to flow smoothly (not sure how).Another feature is an additional two HDMI channels for TV sound from your 1.4 TV to a 1.4 receiver.Currently, you can't get TV sound (i.e. sound coming over the air) using a 1.3 HDMI connection.I ... | |
| Old Blue Point Special- worth replacing stylus? Call Music Direct and ask them about Sumiko's trade-in allowance for the Blue Point line. I just got $100 off a Blue Point Evo for my old BPS-II.Couldn't hurt to ask... |
