| NuForce Popping The initial batch of preamps and integrateds had some minor design oversights. These were all fixed with a simple swap of the faceplate. Otherwise, the sound quality from these products is simply stellar for their price. | |

| Is the Pass Labs X350.5 and X1 "warm"? The X350.5 is indeed a warm amplifier. It may be one of the best out there in terms of combining the speed, detial and dynamics of solif state and the open, fluid and warm sound of tubes. Is it as warm and rich as a tube? No. But does it posess tu... | |

| Blue Note CD player s Aaudiophile (Paul)-Not sure why you are trying to slam me in this forum, or why you emailed me off-line to try and convince me the Stibbert is a better player. To my ears, it is not, no contest. As for the modded Opus, it is night and day. You may... | |
| Blue Note CD player s I am very familiar with them. I used to sell them until I got burned by the importer. He was selling me used gear as new and when we had problems, didn't want to hear anything.As far as Blunote themselves, they really couldnt care either. However,... | |
| Parasound JC-1 vs. Pass 250.5 Stereophile also has never reviewed other countless products that many deem to be the pinnacle of performance. It is my opinion that Stereophile recommendations are useless beyond an introduction to the hobby, so I wouldnt hit the panic button jus... | |
