| Anyone Recognize This Logo? I don't recognize the logo but I remember a feature article in either Stereophile or TAS about a New York dealer who used to stuff cabinets with goodies for resale(This may have been the late Mike Kay of Lyric Hi-Fi).This was in the 50's and 60's ... | |

| Rega Apollo - DAC / Player to beat it I'm using a new (not fully broken in) Oppo 105.So far, it doesn't sound as good as the Apollo I once owned (at least on CDs).A recent review (MAY/JUNE TAS) has me juiced about the new Bryston BDA-2 DAC.It says that pairing the BDA-2 and their digi... | |
| Las Vegas Used HiFi It's a wasteland here.I think there are some dealers in Reno and one about halfway to Reno but the local 'Vegas scene is just sad.Of course, L.A. is only a few hours away.They have many-many Hi-Fi shops. | |

| Major upgrade from Rega Apollo: Which one? I'm using the Oppo 105 and can say it sounds quite good.I'm back with the vaunted BAT VK-300SE and finally have music again (after a five year wait).At this point, the 105 isn't as glorious as my former Apollo but this may be due to its newness.Al... | |
| Major upgrade from Rega Apollo: Which one? I've owned the Rega Apollo and the SONY 5400ES.The Rega paired with a BAT VK-300SE integrated was the most musically satisfying system I've owned (Thiel 1.6 speakers).The Sony through an Onkyo SR876 HT receiver was kind of generic sounding. | |
| Bass leaves after amp warms up? Is this plausible?1. You bought your PSBs used,2. Whomever you purchased from blew out the woofers and had them reconed.3. The new surround is nice and springy when you first start listening but "poops out" when it gets warm,4. Most amps put out m... | |
| Entry-level speaker cables Stick with your current wire and save up for some Harmonic Technology Pro-11 or Pro-9 ($300-$500).I've been using Pro-9 for more than ten years and love it. |
