| Will Creek 5350 SE drive Magnepan 1.6QR? Didactically, my only concern is that another audio neophyte, such as yourself, would take your advice, when it has become clear that you have no credibility. Questions were asked of you, regarding your opinions and experience. You answered neithe... | |
| Will Creek 5350 SE drive Magnepan 1.6QR? Didactically, listen more and talk less! I went back to read your posts, and some things are evident. You have a great command of the English language, and express yourself quite eloquently. Unfortunately, most of your post are a tiresome repeat o... | |
| Looking for the identity of a 70's song Tfkaudio, the title of this song is actually "Sugar, Sugar". | |
| Will Creek 5350 SE drive Magnepan 1.6QR? Actually, I think that high end audio has much in common with boating. There are many different styles of boats; all will do things differently. Each boater/audiophile will have different needs and different biases. Some people want pounding base,... | |
| Looking for the identity of a 70's song Rrosev, I was a teenager when this song was released, and I found it about as soothing as fingernails on a blackboard. To each, their own. B.T.W., the "Archies" were a pick-up band of studio musicians, and not a real group. | |
| Will a transformer, 220 to 100v, ruin the sound? Listen to Eldartford...he is wise! | |
| The best test CD ? Foxtrot, check with Rives Audio. I believe they sell a test CD to be used in conjunction with the Radio Shack SPL meter. | |
| Will Creek 5350 SE drive Magnepan 1.6QR? Didactically, you state,"A majority of 'audiophiles' are out of their tree, I don't care how much they spend. A total lack of science is the first clue. We are talking about electronics here. There has to be some, if not mostly, science, which is ... | |
| Will Creek 5350 SE drive Magnepan 1.6QR? What is the power rating of your amp at 4 ohm impedance? The amp must also be STABLE at 4 ohms. I used a Spectron 1 with a Sonic Frontiers Line 3 tube preamp. The Spectron 1 is a class D switching amp, so it produces 500 wpc at 4 ohms, is VERY sma... | |
| Dire Straits Remasters STOP! Get the JVC XRCD2 copy of "Brothers in Arms", which has the reputation of being the best CD version of this album. I have several SBM CD's, but I have been most impressed with Japanese pressed CD's. Also, Australian pressed CD's are also qui... | |
| Freezer Cryoed Cables... SLAPPY, you got slapped again? Didn't you just have a nasty split-up a few months ago? It COULD have been worse if you got stinkin' drunk, and woke up the following morning with the tattooed DUDE in your bed, and got caught by his parole officer! | |
| Freezer Cryoed Cables... Sorry, Rpatrick. I didn't realize that you were serious. My chief concern is that you weren't accounting for the inevitable condensation that would result. But apparently you've created freezer ready "Seal-A-Sound" (couldn't resist!) by wrapping i... | |
| Freezer Cryoed Cables... Thanks for the laugh! I assume that this IS a joke! | |
| Japanese CD's Thanks to all for your help! | |
| Best excuse for playing loud music? Hey man, like it's BLACK SABBATH!!!!!!! |
