| CD/DVD storage units I love my "the cube"'s by www.lorentzdesign.com (800) 933-0403. They are well made and attractive and have stood up to years of use. They each store 306Cds and are stackable. You could easily stand on them without any give. You can see what they l... | |

Dealer said unfixable,uncovered by any warentee after a year, and that no other unit would work in the fiber optic system. Luckily my local electronic guru fixed for $100. BTW the soun... | |
| Northstar 192 Transport and DAC - comments Well, I have had the NorthStar now for about two weeks. Initially I was unsure in that it did not have quite the dynamics of my previous Aragon D2A2 DAC. The NorthStar appears a bit more laid back in general and particularly in the trebbile and mi... | |

| Jolida JD100 vs MF A3.2 vs Ah Njoe Tjoeb 4000 If you will go used. Get any decent Cd player that has digital out, or transport and plug it into the Agaron D2A2 DAC. There is an Aragon DAC for sale for $399 on Augiogon, in the second or third page of DAC listings. It is smooth and detailed wit... | |
| Spikes versus wall coupling TWL I was the one who started this thread and I would love to hear what your ideas are on vibration control. No need to response to Barry or others point by point, rather just give your feelings on the best way the deal with 185 lbs speakers on wo... | |

| Spikes versus wall coupling Newbee, I teach meditation not mediation. OM! Though through meditation I have absolute respect for the process of mediation. Both increase the peace in the world. Thanks for the Schubert tip - I love much of Schubert. Has Barry convinced you yet:) | |
