| Shipping speakers I have used UShip with good results.B | |
| Streaming music- not the end all music solution but one main advantage? @mental I totally disagree. Tidal and Quobuz offer high rez streaming.And, if you haven't tried it, why would you dismiss it?B | |
| Streaming music- not the end all music solution but one main advantage? I love it. Like you said, I can listen to music I never heard before, and probably wouldn't have bought if I couldn'tt listen to it first.And, sound quality is pretty awesome, too.B | |
| Quick Mye Stand Question I don't own the Mye stands, but I do know packing.If you can disassemble them to a 2 dimensional state, then I would wrap them in shrink wrap plastic and put them in boxes or separate the components with cardboard.If they are heavy, you might want... | |
| Difference in sound between day and night. Help! I don't know where you are located, but my conversations with Pat at SMcAudio in CA, revealed that their power showed significant changes as the day progresses. Late Evening and Early Morning being the time when power provided the best sound.So, i... | |
| In praise of moderation +2It must be hard to keep things on an even keel, especially when 2-3 posters-you know them-keep dis-railing threads.Thankfully, said posters haven't come to the 'insiders', yet.B | |
| Recapping Krell KSA 250 I am no expert, but I think turning on the amps will not be a problem.If you are concerned, take off the cover and look around. If you see something bulging or looks like it is drooling, then you have a bad cap.If not, they should be fine.I owned ... | |
| Is now a good time to buy a pre-owned DAC? That is why I now have 2 Ayre Codex's. A great DAC at a great price-especially used.B | |
| i am starting to think Audiogon profits off the spam... +1 on having a 'trial period' before posts are automatically accepted.Unfortunately, it puts a lot of strain on the mods, if they have to screen every new members post.If the admin does manage to eliminate the spam posts, I hope they have some saf... | |
| McIntosh mda1000 For that money, I would get something more current.DAC's have improved significantly in the past 10 years. The Mac is from around '06. Which is not saying it sounds bad, but I think for the money you could do better.B | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels What SQ differences between the Treo's and the Kaya's did you notice.Bob | |
| Alternatives to Stillpoints The Ayre myrtle blocks come to mind.Are they 'better'? Who knows?But, at least another choice that won't break the bank.Besides that, maybe something from Herbie's.Bob | |
| When do you turn off the tubes? For an hour break, I would leave things on.When I go to bed, everything gets turned off.B | |
| Bi-wireing speakers I own the GO-4's and they are a considerable upgrade from the Rockefeller's I owned previously. The price wasn't crazy either.B | |
| Speaker Suggestions @mzkmcv,Your impressions of Vandy's imaging isn’t great and have dampened bass, Is something I disagree with, and one I think most Vandy owners would, too.With proper setup, their imaging is great.As for bass, Yes, a 1ci vs a 3a sig won't go a... |
