| Good and bad w/ replacing stock preamp jumpers? For me, it seems as though there has been a sonic improvement since I replaced the stock jumpers; not as much as I hoped however. | |
| High End Umbilical Cords I purcahsed 16 or 18 ft. of Jena Labs cable to use as a braided umbilical for my Modwright power supply. Dan Wright made it to go with my Modwright Sony 999ES power supply. If you contact him he might be willing to make you an umbilical if you sen... | |
| Feedback wanted from Jolida JD100A owners Ok here's my take. I've had the JD 100 for 2 years and it has not be sold. (for philes that's pretty good) I purchased the Simaudio Nova, a fine and more expensive solid state player, thinking it would displace the JD100- it did not- in my system ... | |
| power cord recommendayion Don't know anything about your equipment but an inexpensive good all-around cord is the Supra Lo Rad. ($80) new. | |
| How to ship my speakers out of state I have used Dayton Freight (www.daytonfreight.com) successfully twice to ship heavy speakers (160 lbs ea)and they did a fine job on each occasion. They do residence to residence shipping and are less expensive than some of the competition. Be awar... | |
| Is There any Truly "High End" Integrated Amp? Bwright: I'd like to hear your feedback on the new Master Series integrated from NAD: NAD M3 | |
| Sounds like a $5000 Integrated amp but only $1600 Marakanetz: I thought it was subwoofer compatible when I purchased it; Since the unit I got had to be shipped from China it took what seemed like forever for me to get it. And as you put it, "these chinese guys" at least the ones at Dussun, will n... | |

| Sounds like a $5000 Integrated amp but only $1600 I feel that Cwlondon is completely out of line with his attack. In the future however, Hifisoundguy, I would advise you to use a question mark in the heading of your post rather than within your post. The Dussun V8i is a very good integrated ampli... | |
| Mac or Plinius? In my setup the Plinius was better than the McIntosh. I had the 9200 and the McIntosh MA 6900. The Plinius was more refined, smoother, better quality low end. The MA6900 in my system was one dimensional. | |
| Integrated Amp Vr-4jr Hi: I've read great things about the Kw500 but that's it. As was mentioned, DK Design integrateds have been used at the audio shows with the JR's to excellent reports. This pairing obviously has synergy. Also the Moscode intergrated was used with ... | |
| Looking for solid state integrated amp. Don't know about the Onix or the Creek, but I auditioned the Complete Alpha- if you're looking for a smooth non-fatiguing sound with a detailed midrange- that's your ticket imho. Build quality is great, and sonics too and they can be had used inex... | |
| Best Rock Drummers When the thread said Rock Drummers I did not include other genres, but I must tip my hat to the greatest soul r&b drummer of all time (former James Brown drummer Jabo Starks "pronounced jab-o." His incredible riffs and beats have been sampled ... | |
| Best Rock Drummers Hellerfi jogged my memory of seeing Buddy Rich on the Johnny Carson show several times- he wasn't a rocker but he was one of the greatest drummers that ever lived (quite possibly the greatest). | |
| Best Rock Drummers For the most part the previous posts hit the nail on the head. There are so many great ones that everyone's going to have an opinion like belly buttons. Alan White (Yes) over Bruford, Copeland; Peart is incredible and plays like the Flash; Hendrix... |
