| pre's and amps that match well with Electro EMC-1 Ummm...how about Electrocompaniet? | |
| Sony SCD-777ES Power Cables Have you considered the Elrod? It's a fatty. | |
| How to upgrade my Rega Planet based system Buy REALLY expensive power cords. Like Siltech Compass Lake. Your dealer will be glad you did. | |
| ART DIO Modded or Job DA48 ?? They're both trash. Buy a decent one-box unit and be done with it. The Sony CDR-W66 is my recommendation, albeit an unpopular one. If you insist on a separate DAC, go with the best Apogee your budget will allow. | |
| What cables work well with B&W 801 Nautilus Spkrs? How about with no cables. I guarantee this will provide you with the quietest background that we all seek. | |
| Vandersteen or Klipsch Vandersteen. Forget the Pathos and Unison, though. They are crap. You'd do well with an ARC CA-50. While you're at it, go for the Vandy 2's. | |

I got married about a month ago and I'd second the advice to do as much as you can right now. This is not to say that you won't be able to do more later, but it'll probably be more difficult ... | |
| Leveling spikes for speakers I have had this same issue before, and thought it'd be cool if one of the tweak manufacturers would produce threaded cones like the Zoethecus ones, only smaller. That would be a nearly perfect solution, and extremely convenient. Of course, several... | |
| Beatles Gold CD's Why bother with any of the cd's?! The lp's aren't very hard to "track" down, if you know where to look... | |
| What percentage do you spend on each component? Victrola 100% | |
| When to bi-wire? When you want to give manufacturers and dealers some more of your cash... | |
| Are you going to buy the Rolling Stones SACDs? A ticket to just one Stones show costs more than an entire season of tickets to the local symphony! Hell, no, I'm not going to contribute one more thin dime to those geriatric wastoids. Besides, I've already got all the records... |
