| Is computer audio a bust? I'm with you Abucktoweighty, I have come close to chucking my computer audio setup since my files don't sound as I would like. As far as Audioengr's statement that "Computer Audio is no different than CD players." Yes, there is a wide range of qua... | |
| Is computer audio a bust? I use it but feel kind of negative about it as though it were a bust, because it's so difficult to understand all the jargon/ information required. You want to be sure you're optimizing your setup to get the best sound quality, but there's always ... | |
| Review: Furez 14AWG 2 conductor bulk Speaker cable Thanks for the heads up on the Joe Henderson recording. I am a fan and ordered the CD. The Furez sounds like it's worth investigating too. | |

| Happy Birthday Lee Morgan I will definitely check the link and the music since I am a Lee Morgan fan! | |
| In Awe of "Yessongs" Forty Years Later Adam, that's a great, great, story! I'd love to have met Jon Anderson. I was in such awe of him back in the days when Yessongs was recorded. His voice was very pure in those days and he was very "other worldly" in his creativity, song writing and ... | |
| The End Of Big Iron? Always wanted one of the big Krells, but their amps weighed over 100 lbs and I could not see myself trying to move one and always needing help. I think many folks who would have considered some of these big amps passed for similar reasons and the ... | |
| Most overrated audio manufacturers? Ok, so some of you are saying a certain manufacturer's product is the most "overrated." Folks, the problem with the subject matter here is that in general, most audiophiles and enthusiasts mix and match speakers, amplifiers, preamplifiers, cd play... | |
| great headphone amplification in vintage gear? Dave I would not risk it. Some amps are designed to have a load across the ouput terminals of the receiver/ amp when powered on. You would not know without asking Yamaha. You can always send an online inquiry to Yamaha tech support although they m... | |
| DAC woes - what to do DAC recommendations you received have been plentiful and varied. But the sound you get from any of the DACs will depend on its synergy with the rest of your system. No way to know that until you try quite a few DACs in your setup. I've had some of... | |
| New Yamaha a-s3000 and a-s2100 integrated amps ?? Hifisoundguy, I appreciate your warning. I'm not doing any tweaking of the integrated. The most I may do is try the isolation pads underneath. | |
| New Yamaha a-s3000 and a-s2100 integrated amps ?? Unfortunately I'm not a diy type audiophile except very basic things like cleaning contacts and changing tubes. Mucking around on the inside of a brand new unit with even small quantities of contact enhancer is in my opinion a good way to void a w... | |

| How quiet is your Rogue Sphinx? Foster_9... "some noise from the balance is normal." Ridiculous statement, don't you think?Yes, Lowrider that is totally unacceptable, from a quality control perspective or any perspective. | |
| How quiet is your Rogue Sphinx? "I have a new Rogue sphinx, I don't recall the unit I demoed to be especially noisy but I do find my unit to have some noise despite other owners describing the model as 'dead quiet'."It's a new unit. That's all that matters. Don't settle for less... |
