| Classical Recordings from the Golden Age Elizabeth, do you know if the Pearl label has closed shop? They are no longer listed on the arkivmusic website and I can't find a home website for them. Yes, EMI, DG, Phillips, etc..., all of the larger labels have reissued a vast catalogue of his... | |

| Classical Recordings from the Golden Age Thanks Roxy, I have been looking at the Decca mono box set for a few months now and am glad that you give it such high praise. With respect to the Tahra label, they are now unfortunately finito. I do own a few CD's on the Tahra label. | |

| Thoughts on VTA...... For me, having a C Through design ruler helps with making quick approximate references. If I notice that my tonearm is level, then I've found that I prefer it raised slightly at the head-shell for a fuller sonic signature. This may cost me a littl... | |
| Classical Recordings from the Golden Age Thanks lowrider! Seems you've resurrected this thread so thank you. As far as Testament, I do have a few. My last purchase was a Richter recording of Schubert on the APR label. What I've been looking for recently are live radio broadcasts. The Sal... | |
| To DAC or not to DAC? To state the obvious, the primary goal of a DAC is to make digital files sound analogue. Which ever DAC, CD player, streamer, etc... does this effectively is, in my mind, doing what's expected. Which then brings in to question the characteristic q... | |
| To DAC or not to DAC? Isn't there a DAC chip in your Oppo player? | |
| Clearaudio DC Performance vs DC Performance Wood The Clearaudio website claims that a wooden chassis offers better resonance control. I would suspect that a wooden chassis will also offer a fuller and deeper tone than the metal. | |
| New to audiophile and need HELP. If you need to make a new purchase, then I'd ask for a 20% discount from the dealer. Or instead, go directly to the distributer and see what sort of discount you can get from them. I did this when I bought my amplifier and I got a brand new ASR wi... | |
