| Have you tried the ART SLA-1 amp yet? Swapping the speaker posts for some 5.00 ea gold plated 5 way posts is a matter of unbolting the stockers and bolting up the new ones.No soldering or de-soldering is involved...ie, anyone can do this mod.As far as the 1/4 inch pro jacks, i simply ... | |

| Philips 963 or NAD 541i If you end up with the 963, let it run 24/7 for 6-7 days before doing any serious evaluating on redbook, same goes for sacd..Use the 6 channel outs as they use superior sounding op amps and cap.I added a used Virtual dynamics power 3 for 50.00 tha... | |
| Philips 963 or NAD 541i Jgeyer, just wondering what rca outs you used to evaluate the 963sa?The only other two negative posts i have seen on four audio boards on the 963sa, the users were using the rca outputs that are for tv hookup as opposed to the multi channel rca ou... | |

| Mark Knopfler's Ragpickers Dream-heard it? No, i have not heard it, after his first solo release, all i could think of it was.....maybe going solo was not such a good idea for MK. | |
| Digital cable recommendation I Just visited the i2digital website and read the review...it appears that the az mc2 and the i2digital are a draw.AZmc2 is available more often used for around 200.00 so it appears that it is still THE cable to beat.I do like the connectors[bnc/r... | |
| Digital cable recommendation The Wireworld Gold mentioned is a good choice but the best choice by a huge margin in your budget is a used Acoustic Zen mc2....bar none.If you want a more musical digital cable than this....plan on spending 4-5 times as much IMHO. | |

| Now I know what SACD is good for. Check out "Tin Pan Alley" on the Couldn't Stand The Weather sacd..... it doesn't get any better than this IMHO. | |
| Sony 9000es v. Phillips 963SA - anyone compared? Speaking as somone who just had the Sony 9000es for two years with 900.00 worth of ic's hooked up to it, the Phillips 963a sounds better on redbook out of the box with 60.00 ic's and the stock pc.It has way better imaging, air and soundstage after... | |
| Review: ART SLA-1 Amplifier Dls, great review...although this little amp is not a giant slayer, it is a fantastic little amp, and not just for the $$.By any chance if you missed them[i did]there are four little rubber feet that come in the box.Adding these litte buggers,seem... |
