| Rocky Mountain Audio Fest 2008 Last year was my first time attending the RMAF. The show was gret! Since Stereophile show has moved to Canada this is the only show in the U.S. this year.I go to Denver for work every month and stays in the Marriott. So I am planning my September ... | |
| Does a Postal Money order need to "clear"? Good to know, as I've just received one. I checked it out under the light, and ran through the surface with my fingers, and everything looked legit. I had just deposited it at the bank. Next time I'll know to just take it to the post office and ca... | |
| Pass Labs X350 vs X250.5 I got to listen to the X350 and X350.5 side by side at a friend's place before pulling the trigger on the X350.5. (He sold the X350 and kept the X350.5) I still have my Pass Aleph Os that I just love dearly. The original X series (non-.5 series) s... | |
| Best amp choice for Thiel 2.4 I had a pair of Thiel 3.6s. I paired them with a ML333 for over 8 years. Because of a repeating issue with capacitors, I finally gave it up two years ago and bought a Pass X350.5. The thing sounded amazing right out of the box. I had thought that ... | |
| Tubes for ARC PH3SE Everyone's opinion is going to be different, because everyone's system is different and the sound everyone's chasing after is different.I personally prefer Amperex tubes over Siemens in most cases. I have over 600 of various 6DJ8/6922/7308 tubes. ... | |
| Simaudio vs Pass X350.5 I agree with Bunkeromantik. I've only heard Sim Audio equipment at dealers, but I do own the X350.5. In my experience, the Simaudio products sound more neutral than Pass.The Pass has the best of both worlds (SS & tubes). It has the midrange wa... | |
| Anyone Using the Sold Tech Radius Just for reference, my turntable sits atop the Refere Rack of Silence. It doesn't have a "shelf", but four legs are connected by "X" beams. My Michell Orbe SE sits on the top shelf. Between the table and the "X" beams, I place a chopping block fro... | |
| How do I build the best room I have a question about the first reflection point. I've been doing some research in preparation to build my own room from scratch. I had one of those "light-bulb" moment this morning while I was on a flight to Denver.My room will be 14 ft (w) x 2... | |
| Anyone Using the Sold Tech Radius It should not be a problem. Each board is solid and heavy. It can take the weight without any problem. How much does the Aries weight? How about the 4" maple platform? I would go to www.solid-tech.net and ask the manufacturer directly whether the ... | |
| Anyone Using the Sold Tech Radius I have one set up for my headphone gear in the study room, completely "upgraded" with suspension kit for every shelf, and isolation feet for the rack.It's a very nice rack, but support in the U.S. is not that good. This rack is designed to be flex... | |
| My Setup - Room Treatment Suggestions? What material is the wall? Is it concrete/brick or sheet rock? I am in no way an expert, but I subscribe to the view that diffusion is better than absorption. I would try diffusing the side walls first. If you still have excessive upper energy, th... | |
| Yamaha or Denon ? My Yahama RXV-1 just died last year. One by one, the channels went out within the last 6 months. First one of the surround channel, then the two front channels, then the subwoofer, and then the center channel. I bought it new and only had it for l... | |
| Optimum size for music room? Hi Tiger,Wow! Now that's a room! Unfortunately, I live in the Silicon Valley where an ounce of dirt costs more than an ounce of gold. I am just lucky that my house sits on a pretty good size lot (in Silicon Valley terms) that would allow me to bui... | |
| Optimum size for music room? I am in the same situation as you as we have started looking into a major remodel for our house. Part of the remodel will be to build a dedicated listening room from scratch.There are tons of information available online. I've done some research o... | |
| Doors Vinyl Box Set Defect? How do you guys like the set? I did some research and the concensus seem to be that this reissue is not that good.FrankC |
