| Aethetix IO Signature Question Again, I agree with Ruston on the noise issue as mine was also not too noisy with the stock tubes and my Dynavector XV-1s. Sure it has a little tube rush when the music is not playing but I never noticed it when I dropped the cartridge, That said,... | |
| Aethetix IO Signature Question I have the same phono stage - what Rushton said. | |
| The most haunting music you ever heard? Ghostbusters? | |
| Upgrading from Kharma 3.2 to Verity Parsifal Michael,I went from a $100,000 pair of Kharma Exquisite Diamonds to the Verity Sarastro II and I can ASSURE you without any doubt that they will do rock at real world volumes. As far as their bass goes, this is where set-up is crucial and, as Cenl... | |
| Upgrading from Kharma 3.2 to Verity Parsifal Argyo,While I agree with Jaybo that you have a good speaker, I disagree with his conclusion since you listed your exact objective. I too went from Kharma to Verity and you will get exactly what you are looking for. Again, not to say the 3.2 isn't ... | |
| Paradigm Signature Servo vs JL-Audio F112 I usually don't post much here anymore but do have a strong opinion (and this all this ever really is) on this topic. I've owned Kinergetics, Paradigm, Velodyne, M&K, ACI, B&W and owned and reviewed the REL Stentor III subs and all I can s... | |
| The CD you most listened to back in 2007 ? Not bad FrankG!! I certainly can't complain (well, I could but no one would listen!). How are you? I assume your system is still top notch? | |
| The CD you most listened to back in 2007 ? My best guess is that this would be a 6-way tie:1. Santa Fe and the Fat City Horns: "Let the Healing Begin"2. Doc Kupka's Strokeland Superband: "Bumped Up To First Class"3. Judith Owen: "Lost and Found"4. Chris Jones: "Roadhouses and Automobiles"5... | |
| Your First Concert was..... Stan Kenton and Maynard Ferguson | |
| What made you select "audio" as your hobby cuz I couldn't sing or dance!! | |
| Reimyo CDT-777 Lula and Williamredburry, if either of you are near the Detroit Metro area you can stop by and hear for yourself. If not, e-mail me privately and I can give you my impressions. While I am not a politically correct guy, there is much to like about ... | |
| Reimyo CDT-777 I am not familiar with the X-01 in my system so I cannot help on that unit. Reimyo no longer makes the one-box CDP because JVC is no longer making that amazing transport (it is my understanding that the multi-million$$$$ machine that JVC used to m... | |
| Reimyo CDT-777 Just my "personal" opinion here, but I heard them side by side and preferred the older one box CDP by a fairly wide margin. As you may know, many people attribute the lion's share of the Reimyo CDP's wonderful sonics to the older (no longer made) ... | |
| It's Hammond B3 Organ Day Shadorne, you are right on the money. Prme Time Funk and Mingo Fishtrap are better yet (more polished), the new Sage a bit more TOP-like and Santa Fe and the Fat City Horns are simply unbelievable (both CDs are live and they have unbelievable chop... | |
| It's Hammond B3 Organ Day Shadorne, I can HONESTLY say they are actually better than EVER. Why? Because David Garibaldi and Rocco are still together so the rhythm section is the best it can be. I have never liked ANY Hammond B-3 player in TOP since Chester left - that is U... |
