Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA
Gladstone, at first I was going to drop from shock thinking you had turned into a dynamic guy (speakers that is). I bet your home theater will sound fabulous. If you liked the Dynavector tip, check out my post on AA Vinyl Asylum today on the Loric... 
Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA
Gladstone, I agree - that is exactly what I told my friend yesterday who asked this same question. If Albert can make a speaker like the VR-4 sound that good, it is frightening what he might be able to do with an all out assault like the 11s.I hav...

Mike, I know you are getting the 9s. But the way your post read, it stated that you heard the VR-11s and then you go on to state your comparison to the Midis. I have no doubt you liked the 11s. Just remember, not every speaker in any Manufacturer'...

Hey Mike!I only have one slight caveat on your comment about the Kharma/Von Schweikert comparison:VR-11s = $120,000Kharma Midi Grand = $36,000 - 40,000Do the math. The VR-11s BETTER be better for 3 times the price!!! This is like saying that I com... 
Review: Bose 201 Series V
You must have a lot of spare time. 
Mephisto II, Sim Moon Eclipse How do they compare?
hoity toity? This coming from Bose Rules Boy? Mr. Snobby Bobby himself! Hey HifiGator, ask "bri" about his 8-track set-up! It's a killer! The only probem is that his "Best of the Cowsils" tape keeps skipping. I told him to tape a penny to the 8-tr... 
EMM Labs on Bad Redbook
I suggest you ask A-Gon Member Hooper (who may chime in here) as he has the EMM Labs gear and, by his own admission, owns some discs that are not the best pressings. In my experience, when Hooper has been at my home with his poorly recorded stuff ... 
Mephisto II, Sim Moon Eclipse How do they compare?
Guys, don't believe anything that crazy Camboinc (a/k/a "Brian the Bose Guy") says. His main system consists of a Bose Wave radio and a Mattel "Close & Play" Record Player (but I have heard he has a $6,000 power cord on his Close and Play thus... 
Who Was Your Favorite One Hit Wonder
Rsbeck, you are taking me back to my teenage days in the early 70s! What a blast! I loved that song!!

Meitner EMM DAC6e Redbook Performance
I bought it for Redbook and considered the SACD a bonus. I have owned or tried MANY of the best available (the best by Linn, dCS, Accuphase, Audio Aero, Cary, Sonic Frontiers, Audio Research and Wadia) and, for MY tastes and in MY system, nothing ...

Believe it or not, an A.M. radio question
Thanks everyone! Pkaram, I assume you are saying that even the Crane antenna referred to above will not be able to overcome the monitor problem.Lp guy, I have had the same experience with Terk's TV antennae in the past.Rich, that Crane looks inter... 
Believe it or not, an A.M. radio question
Thanks guys, I have a hunch I am SOL. I am near a window and am using a long piece of wire already. I was hoping a powered antennae would do the trick.
