| New format players the future? Ben-1)Possible -- but expensive, not well regarded by marketers. Also don't think the marketplace needs -- or can sustain -- a plethora of new formats in the long run. We already have 2 + 2 new propositions. IMO, keeping both SACD & DVD-A is f... | |
| Who can fix electrocompaniet amps Excellent point, Bwhite! Indeed, the 2A/250 is for european use (higher voltage, lower amperage)! | |
| Speakers for the party system So, now that we've solved the speakers problem... when's the party ;-) ? | |
| Genesis - where are they?? OK, one way of keeping our Genesis gear alive is to: a) get part specs & manufacturer for speaker units. b) schematics for the servo amps.Is there anyone geographically close enough to make inquiries???The models in play here are:Genesis V (i ... | |
| Brahms Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, op. 115. Will do, Otto! Frogman, that's an interesting post, brief and informative!Cheers | |
| Best recordings for the following... For the 4 Seasons my preference goes to the Philips recording of I Musici -- available separately (426 944-2) or, better still in a boxed Vivaldi Edition Vol.2 (456 186-2). IMO both volume 1&2 are excellent.Praudio: The Dorati Nutracker on Phi... | |

| Brahms Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, op. 115. Otto, you are right, it's indeed a mono recording from the late '30s and available on CD (or was...). As Frogman notes, it's sonically bearable.Frogman, I'll have to check out the Leister w/Amadeus version (esp. vs the Vermeer!)-- thanks for the r... | |
| Who R U? Detlof, one release is on the "The Blues Brothers" film album. There are many others I don't remember right now unfortunately -- but can research if you wish!Cheers | |
| Who R U? Welcome on board, Dave! No relation to Cab of "Minnie the Moocher" fame:) | |
| Brahms Quintet for Clarinet and Strings, op. 115. Otto, I too like the Vermeer Quator on Orfeo. However I prefer an old EMI (references)release: Quator Busch & Reginald Kell.Cheers! | |
| Upgrading power cord.. proven upgrade? or crap? There *are* palpable reasons, it seems, which I cannot actually reproduce -- an ee could probably.It might be worth trying a used power cord on your present system. One such made an important difference on a tiny micromega integrated! | |
| How BIG is yours? Mike: No, no, there is hope! You only have around 4500 (!) hrs of music -- and growing steadily. It'll only take you about 7months of 7/24 listening to go through the collection. Think of Detlof, Cornfed & others! | |
| What is the BEST resistor for audio use I second Albert's motion and regret I have neither the skills nor the parts availability to try this! | |
| Audio at 54 Khz by Tannoy I remember reading a french article claiming proof that we *perceive* sounds beyond our aural limits (through the bones, I believe). If this is the case, wide-bandwidth reproduction is useful: many instruments' harmonics go well beyond the standar... |
