FYI New Audio Research (ARC) Trade-In Program Could not imagine trading up at these prices. I would do better with Audiogon. | |
CDs Vs LPs I have equivalent systems Spectral cdp (and a BelCanto PL1) vs VPI HRX rim drive with Lyra Atlas as my main cartridge. Vinyl almost always sounds more natural and real than digital. But cds, sacds and dacs have improved greatly over the last 15 ye... | |
Spectral SDR 4000SV owners? @ptss No but perhaps I will. I have Magnum AC2 pc and Ultralinear III ICs which the retailer used to show an all Spectral system. | |

New D'Agostino Monoblocks...$250,000 Anyone thinking of buying these can contact me to take the Stereo or Momentum monos off of their hands. | |
Stereophile, no more bench tests????!!!! I agree with Mapman, Almarg and bdp24. I enjoy Stereophile more than any other mag because in addition to the reviewer's subjective impressions, we have measurements. No wise audiophile should buy any component based solely upon measurements. The... | |
