| Looking to buy a quality integrated $10,000 budget. Thanks everyone for the input, I'm looking at LTA seriously now as well as my LUX- Accuphase options I've mentioned and totally forgot the Leman, Shido, Bolder etc stuff.

| Looking to buy a quality integrated $10,000 budget. Yes I'll be waiting until after Jan 1st before I buy to get into 2021 tax year. I'll be spreading some money I have from Veterans Affairs around to save some on tax's. The last time I tried OTL's I found them too noisy for the 105db speakers. I a... | |
| I was told to put Kitty Litter in my new speaker stands. Was he joking? go to a pet store that has fish, they will sell clean and dry sand, small pee gravel etc. of various sizes pick the one you like. I've used the sand many times with good results. if its not sealed along the bottom run a bead of silicon around the... | |
| Sansui CA 2000 preamp I've been running it all refreshed for the better part of this year and its quite surprisingly good. I've driven Dynaco Mk4 mono blocks (also moded), Audio Note Quest's ( borrowed for a month while i was considering buying them), Finale Audio 300... | |
| Used McIntosh Amp or better new options out there? - Amplifier or Integrated just a side note, I've never heard of anyone being concerned if the equipment was opened or not being an issue. Hell I've opened every piece of equipment I've ever owned to have a look at how is built (why I probably wont own AudioNote again). As ... | |

| Flat screen between speakers, again. put the flat screen on a wall bracket that you can angle up and down, when listening to music angle it up so reflections go above you. works really well in my system and very noticeable. another option is to get a comforter and make it into a cove... | |

| Can anyone recommend an FM Receiver that would play into a relatively high end system? I’d look for a Vintage tuner that’s been refreshed i.e. new caps, proper alignment. there is no one really make really good tuners anymore for reasonable prices and if its only for the occasional use vintage is the way to go. you can find yourself... | |
| Sansui CA 2000 preamp linn9000,I have no doubt your equipment is still working fine and still sound great, my experience shows otherwise though. Caps in those older models are getting on in years and will eventually fail, probably already drifted off spec as well. rea... | |
| I’m looking to upgrade my Magnum Dynalab MD106T??? Your probably going to have to find a vintage one to get better IMO. a restored vintage high end tuner is something to have a listen to. this site had some interesting information on tuners getting a little old now but still relevant. https://www.... | |
| Replacing driver screws with brass screws Wonder how many people are now out there over tightening their screws? | |
| Sam here and this goes much deeper than i ever thought. Sounds like your having re-radiate issues with the power lines in your house.
