| What are your TWO favorite Symphonic Recordings? I don't know about the genius part, but thanks. Of course that should have been "von der Erde" (typo). Regards. | |
| What are your TWO favorite Symphonic Recordings? Wow; talk about difficult questions! So many great and so many favorite recordings; not necessarily both. Some are "favorites" because of the greatness of the performance and sense of perfection. By this standard the two that come immediately to m... | |
| How to isolated stand from springy floors? Interestingly, the OP makes no mention of problems (skipping, feedback) with the turntable; in fact, he suggested that there is no issue with the sound. The turntable, while it has a type of suspension (rubber feet between the chassis and plinth) ... | |
| Major mistakes made in assembling your audio rig This major "mistake" turned out to be a major lesson that would help me avoid other mistakes in the future.

| B&W Matrix 801 Series II ****A low powered tube amp is not the place to look for these speakers so I am considering a much larger power SS amp. Maybe I should be considering tube? I don't know. Anyway, don't be shy. Tell me what you think.****OK, I won't be shy, and in do... | |
| Apartment Drama David99, what's the latest? Have you been tunes-free for four days or has your neighbor calmed down a bit? | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II Chris, you're right, I have liked some of the Krells that I have heard very much. I owned the KSA 50 (good but admittedly far from their best) years ago and enjoyed it very much. Still....there's just something about a good tube amp; something tha... | |
| What hooked you to audio? All through HS I would walk by the local Olson Electronics store and, with no money in my pocket, would stare at and lust after all the cool stuff in the window. For some reason it was the headphones that I lusted after the most; especially the re... |
