Wither Jimmy Page?
I know for some time Page was doing alot of soundtracks for movies and such. His talent never withered, but the generation that saw and appreciated his talent did and the newer generations are into much different music than we rockers of the 70's ... 
What makes a record collection "great"?
I think a great record collection is one that covers generations and times (special and individual) and conversly brings them together. Closest thing we have to remember and feel both the good times and the bad with more than a passing thought. Be... 
anyone use ikea for lp racks?
Forgot to add shelves (each cubicle) is 13 and 1/4 inches high by 13 an 1/8 wide by 15 and 1/8 inches deep. The depth is the only problem but easily remedied and by doing so the units become sturdier. Cheers

No phono input on Jadis but want to buy tunrtable

Your input please: Using sub on 2 channel amp
Yes it is more than possible it,s proven. Just make sure you choose a MUSICAL SUB and not a home theater sub. Rel's are very musical, totem, older NHT's, and others. Cheers

Better to change Speakers first or new Preamp+amp

Record Sleeve Recommendation
Most if not all aftermarket sleeves are better than the standard paper sleeves. I use mofi myself as replacements for the paper sleeves. The clear sleaves with the rounded end that come with most japenese pressings are nice the way they easily sli... 
Alternatives to Musical Fidelity M3 Nuvista
I have a Tri-Vista 300 and NHT 3.3 speakers. I had very good results with upgrading the power chord with a Virtual Dynamics and for inter connects I use harmonic technolgy and their speaker cables 9+. All three moves improved it that much more. Sp...
