Amps/Preamps for Rockport Aviors
Audiotroll:T & A gear is very good stuff. I can assure you that Stereo Exchange carried it, albeit for a brief time, and I found it to be exactly as stated. I would not ascribe a great amount of warmth to it as you do.  I believe Alan Taffel c... 
Amps/Preamps for Rockport Aviors
Hi Gasherbaum:Once again, I'm in a thread that provided an opening for Audio Troy, alias Audiotroll to sell his wares--cite to reviews that agree with him for credibility-- and give his phone number. (He'll say he's just trying to help, but note h... 
Mcintosh Question- Looking for feedback
As a former owner of a complete high end  McIntosh system, including the C1000 preamp, I can say that the sonic signature of Mac is generally rounded images and a warmer presentation. Until I heard D'Agostino, Plinius, Pass Labs, Wells Audio, Merr... 
Best produced rock albums.........
I have an early pressing of AJA as well as an MCA Audiophile half-speed mastered Gaucho. They are both among the best rock recordings and a showpiece for my system when I want to impress.  
Is remastered mainly just less jitter?
The Stones remasters in hybrid cb/sacd were excellent and much better than prior releases. Those remasters provided the greatest improvement over original redbook in the rock domain that I have ever heard. Remasters in general are a crapshoot. 
Spectral SDR-3000
I was told today that the cdp is not due in for another 2 to 4 weeks. Oh well.

Thanks for your interest jzzmn88. Today is 8 weeks from the order date but I have still not received the call. Hopefully in the next few days. I promise to report back as soon as it arrives.  
April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm!
Well Kuppe, we agree on one thing, CSA and Audio Nexus are not the friendliest of dealers and I do not patronize them either (although CSA is out of business now) and Andy Singer had a rep as overbearing but I always appreciated his knowledge and ... 
April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm!
Kuppe:You are really great at attempting to twist my words and lie about the facts to fit your conclusions. I have never been a shill or in the thrall of Audioconnection nor have I or do I have any relationship whatsoever with them except as an pe...

Steve is a good man and I'm sure will do a great job. Good luck in your search. 
April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm!
Kuppe38:You are wasting my time again. You accuse me of having a relationship with AudioConnection based on one quote of mine from 2015 which you take and twist out of context. Let's look at facts. Your first posting to Audiogon was 5 1/2 weeks ag... 
April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm!
Kuppe38: If you could not figure it out from your misspent time on the above referenced Wilson thread, I am not a Vandy fan and I do not have any relationship with Audioconnection.

nitewulf Sorry, I don't know how provide a link but JohnnyR in the post above links to some comments in the thread to which I'm referring which is titled "Wilson Sasha 2 or Alexia for small room 10' x 17?'". Click on JohnnyR's comment and open up ... 
April 2017 review of the Paradigm Persona 9H A home run for Paradigm!
I will not attempt to hijack this Persona thread to extol another brand of speaker, tell everyone here that they are misguided if they prefer the Persona over another speaker at or near their price range, tell everyone I know speakers costing thou... 
All Things Must Pass
Amen to Brainwashed.It is a very strong album with great SQ. In fact, it is in a tie with Cloud 9, if not slightly ahead of cloud 9, as my second favorite Harrison album. (Living In the Material World has a few standouts but IMHO has too many clun...
