| Rotel 1072 vs. Arcam CD73 CD players like analog are very system dependent on the other components one has in their system such as amp,preamp,speakers,interconnects,power cord,etc. I evaluated both of these players in my system. The Arcam CD 73 was considerably better in m... | |

It was a CM Labs 914 amp,Audio Research SP 4 preamp,Denon DP 1200 with a Denon 103D cartridge. Speakers were stacked Large Advents. That was it. No designer interconnects,speaker cab... | |
| Review: Arcam CD 73 CD Player According to the service literature from Classe on the .5 CDP it states and I quote:"The latest generation Burr Brown OPA 2604 output buffer stage biased in pure Class A,is used in the output stage"Perhaps this is why the Classe performs so well w... | |
| Senior Audiophiles - Audiophile since the 60-70's? Okay I will throw my hat in the ring. Been at this since 1957 now I am 62. At the time it was all tubes and mono as well. Owned a high end shop from 1975 to 1982, plus was in the entertainment business with CBS and later with TV Guide. Has been a ... | |
| Best Retailer Youve Done Business With? Okay I started this thread some 4 years ago and Audiogon has grown by leaps and bounds and probably beyond anything the owners of Audiogon ever imagined.But now it is time to vent a little. Not only with the membership but the retailers on this si... | |
| Review: NAD 3120 Amplifier Thought that I would post this here as well, as it is very revelant to the NAD 3120 and NAD 3020.While delving through some old archive material on audio I came across a review on the NAD 3020 from The Audio Critic, Volume 2 Number 2 - Summer/Fall... | |
| Review: Arcam Diva CD72 CD Player Good review. Just purchased the Arcam CD 73 based on this review. Soon as it gets about 50 hours on it will do a review on the 73.We will see how it stacks up against my Classe CDP .5 Player. Will be an interesting comparison between a $2,000.00 d... | |

| Coping in an Age of Uncertainty I am most likely the senior member to this thread. Been in this hobby since 1957, now 62 have seen a lot of things come and go in audio. So one can imagine the depth of my library in Vinyl, and CD at this point. Some years ago finally disposed of ... | |
| Coping in an Age of Uncertainty I doubt if many here remember the mid 70s debacle over the CD4 and SQ4 formats. Both ended up being doomed. One is that RCA and Columbia could not come up with a decoding format that worked for both. So the four channel died a quick and I hope a p... | |
| Review: DCM TimeWindow 1 Speaker The DCM Time Windows Original and 1a used Philips drivers and they have butyl surrounds for the drivers, not foam. I do not see any need to service those drivers, unless of course one over powers them and frys the voice coils. Other than that sit ... | |
| Review: NAD 3020 Receiver Also check out the review on Audiogon of the NAD 7080 Receiver. Perhaps the finest receiver ever built by anyone.Very hard to find now and rare. Big and heavy with great features and wonderful sonics.Link below:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr... | |
