| What is a Servo Tonearm? When I hear "servo tonearm" I think about this model:https://www.vinylengine.com/library/denon/dp-51f.shtmlNever heard it but it looks cool... | |
| Forever speakers around $5000 I'd look at Revel F206 or keep saving and get some B&W 804D3s (used price around $6000). | |
| Me vs. JL Audio - An open discussion. Having never used (or heard) a JL subwoofer, based on reviews, I held them in high regard. That is, until someone (on this site) claimed they used some cheap part internally that had a high failure rate and required shipping back to the factory fo... | |
| Harsh High Frequencies on Speakers Glad you found a solution! | |
| B&W ASW610 subwoofer burned out twice now I heard that Class-D amps have to work extra hard with smaller drivers (like your 10 incher). A bigger cone more efficiently produces the low frequencies so you amp has an easier load. | |
| Need advice I saw this "Uncle Kevin" video yesterday. The Tannoy towers he's touting cost "only" $1100. They look very interesting. Regardshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYuQnZbVeaw | |
| Is OPPO worth the inflated price? I contacted Oppo Service hoping to acquire a replacement LASER sled in advance of a failure. They said "no". I hope the Oppo will last more than five years as this is when service will cease. | |
| Need advice I'm fascinated by the Wharfedale Linton Heritage. They're a little over your limit (without stands) but I'd check out if you can. Another option is KEF 201 Mk-I. I use these for home-theater and have never been let down. $3500 new in their hey-day... | |
| Best sounding Nutcracker Album If you don't need the entire score, "The Royal Ballet Gala Performances" is highly regarded for sonics. | |
| Speaker Cable Recommendations @dpm2340 - Wireworld Eclipse 7 is the all OCC-copper version in the Eclipse line. Others have silver-clad OCC copper, pure OCC silver and, I think, a combo copper-silver edition. You can find Eclipse 7 close to your price-point if you are patient. | |
| Speaker Cable Recommendations Harmonic Technology Pro-9. Had them in my system for 15 years until trying Wireworld Eclipse 7. Both, coincidentally, use OCC copper. Most of my interconnects are HT Magics (Kimber Silver Streaks for phono duty). | |

| Customer Service at Bowers and Wilkins I have owned Thiel 1.6s and 2.4SEs. Both were exceptional speakers. That said, my current B&W 804D3s are everything I want in a speaker. Do I wish their bass was deeper? Yes, but a modest 12-inch subwoofer fixes that. I also don't care for B&... | |
| $250.00 for everything - amp, pre, usb dac ... I know what you mean. My 11 year old Onkyo HT receiver is awesome (I understand Onkyo QC started failing after my purchase which is sad). The only problem with my Onkyo is the radio has failed (I think). Used to work fine (analog AND digital recei... | |
| Romex to your amp? Didn't necessarily mean "electric" juice. Meant "juicy slurpy goodness" juice. BTW, this was seventeen years ago. |
