| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) @testrun , I am not attempting to be sarcastic, but if all you are using the remote for is the preamp, how could it get much simpler? I mean it has an up or down for the main volume knob and that's all that applies to the preamp. | |
| "Too much gain"? (Cary SLP05 question) @testrun , don't you have the factory remote anymore? @jaybe , I had sworn off Cary myself, but then this preamp came up on their preowned page at a price I could do, and before I had sworn Cary off, this was a pre I had heard great things about ... | |
| Does anyone have experience to relate with the reissued Telefunken Black Diamond tubes? @bikeboy52 , I sort of remember reading here that Tube Depot’s matching might be questionable. And they do say in their email that they sell in matched quads, so I guess if I want a couple of sextets I’ll have to call them. I also went to Viva’... | |

| Movie/film suggestions. That was a pretty good movie on several levels, @slaw ; after it got going it wasn’t quite what I expected, but it did make me laugh several times. It was well cast; Woody gets into his roles and Elias Koteas did a good job as a corrupt cop. (He... | |
| Movie/film suggestions. Watched on Prime recently @slaw , I found it on Tubi. I watched about the first five minutes, and that was enough to be able to tell that it should be dark and funny. My kind of movie. I may stay up late tonight and watch it, but if not ton... | |
| Movie/film suggestions. I'll see if I can find that one, @slaw , Woody can be very good. He did an outstanding job with his role in No Country For Old Men. | |
| Movie/film suggestions. Absence Of Malice with Paul Newman, Sally Field, Melinda Dillon and Wilford Brimley. | |
| Favorite rock/pop male voices Lloyd Cole, although I wouldn't classify him as either rock or pop. | |
| Source for high quality jewel cases I'm not a fan of the cardboard digipaks, Add me to that list. They don't make anything easier. Personally, I am okay with the standard plastic jewell case. Even though the plastic often cracks, they still do their job and getting CDs in and ... |
