Affordable TurnTable shoot-out.....
based on what i've heard, i will second the above comment. i've listened to the rega, music hall and basis and must say the basis beat both hands down.the advice i've gotten is to mate the basis, now or in the future with a graham arm for spectacu...

What Tube preamp for NADC370 ? please
i would second the rogue 66 pre as an intro to tubes. i believe there is one posted today on audiogon for $700 used, well worth it imo. i have a 99 mag preamp, different animal, but i think you'll find what you are looking for in a used 66 pre. al... 
Who R U?

stephen,i will switch the speakers later today when i get the chance. btw, they are paradigm monitor 7's.i suppose it is possible that my kt88's are fizzling. the sound is a scratchy, crackling sound, audible only when very close to and directly i... 
Good 8' speaker cables under 200.00
i'd have to agree with a post above and also suggest the alpha core m1 2. on the advice of a trusted friend i purchased this cable and ics and have'nt looked back since. exceptional value, delivering everything you could want out of a cable costin... 
Rogue m-120 monoblocs any opinions ?
i run a rogue 88 with a rogue 99 magnum and the pair are gorgeous to listen to as well as look at.the monoblocks offer significantly more power and are beautiful amps, go for them if you can. however an 88 is a very sensible purchase that will blo...
