Soundlab owners - room placement question
Me thinks there are very, very few Soundlab owners active on Agon. 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
I agree with Dividedebytube (interesting username)Can this be used as part of a glorious active tube preamp? This would be the attenuater part? My very strong hunch is this unit will end up falling short of my current active tube preamp for the sa... 
PayPal Alternative? - What's your opinion?
This was not meant to be pro & con of Paypal thread. I was really asking if other Agoners have used this person to person electronic banking. Seems very simple and no fees. No fees really. Nothing hidden by ING. As far as account numbers etc. ... 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Love to put it up against my unit, but no trial.Interesting posts however.

Trial period? 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Money back trial? These passives have always disappointed me compared to a great active tube preamp. They tend to sound small, sterile and thin relative to a great tube active unit.I have not heard this one, but have heard other highly touted ones. 
PayPal Alternative? - What's your opinion?
I'm not an expert, but since the ING "electric checking" does not provide customers with paper checks or brick and mortar locations, they have to provide some nice electronic options for getting money to payees - and ultimately to attract customer...

Here comes the Dude. What to expect?
Glory,Ha! Nice short review of the Dude. I will look into those Equarack Footers for sure.At some point I would love to hear more of your thoughts on the Dude and what it has done for your music collection. 
What makes a Cd player a Great cd player
Rx8man,I have never heard a tip-top end, high dollar turntable, phono, cart and arm combo. One costing over $20,000, so you may be 100% correct. I just have not tried one in my system. The vinyl systems I have tried retailed for $7000 tops.Still h... 
What makes a Cd player a Great cd player
Meant my comments regarding the possibility of finding a CD player for $3000 that is as pleasing as vinyl for Ddan6815, not Dorkwad. A great CD player does not attack you with music, or hyper detail. Rather, it fills the room with pleasing music t...
