| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? Gunbei, ya got that? Slappy's next in line! He'll be a tough nut to crack cause he's onto all this horse shit big time! He must be silenced.....with extreme prejudice! It was only a matter of time before my faithful servant turned against me! Marc... | |
| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? In certain circles Gunbei is known as "The Rectifier". He came by that name from his fondness for a technique he calls the "GZ34 suppository". He's 'rectified' some pathetically misguided fans of SS to become card-carrying tube-lovers. He has a 10... | |
| Tube Equipment: Gimmick? Bring your friend here to A'gon, and don't tell him where you're taking him. When you get him here, lead him in and just close the door behind you and walk away. What we're going to do to him ain't going to be very pretty, but when you see him aga... | |
| Reference Monitor Recommendations Help-Please Silverline's SR17's are outstanding monitors. They have no right to sound the way they do being so small. You will not believe the sound coming out of them, and set up properly they are as invisible as the holy spirit!Marco | |
| Your Top Five for 2003 Give'em a break folks....the question that started the thread was about the top five you "PURCHASED" in 2003....NOT exclusive, as far as I understood it, to those released in 2003. If so, it should have been phrased differently. Now lets hear s'mo... | |
| What is the standard for judging a systems sound? I use the "Spinal Tap" criteria:"....most amps only go to 'ten', but ours goes to 'eleven'!!"Happy New Year everyone!Marco | |

| A serious blow to Canadian audiophiles, must read Swampwalker - Absolutely agreed; drugs/alchohol and driving/operating heavy machinery and automobiles should not be mixed. I didn't mean to imply otherwise, but I see where you may have infered that from what I wrote (thank you for bringing it to ... | |
| A serious blow to Canadian audiophiles, must read Am I missing something here?! How is the legalization of a drug that, like most, has a detrimental effect upon ones senses, which would include the almighty auditory sense, have anything whatsoever to do with Audiophilia?! Well, I guess it must be... | |
| Favorite one box C.D.?? Naim....nothing more musical that I've heard in a one-box. I have a CD5 with a HiCap (guess that makes it two-boxes, but I do like it fine with one) which is a very smooth and engaging player. I'd also look at the CDX as wellas the CD2. All have a... | |
| Your Favorite, Most Outstanding Guitar Solo Tim Reynolds, on the album with Dave Matthews "Live at Luther College" - a great live recording overall as well!Marco | |
| The Listening Chair - What type do you use? Dean- If you keep sliding downhill the moderator's surely going to be doing a Gunbeloscomy to this thread!Marco.....The hills are alive, with the sound of music....!!!!! | |
| Album which you have listened to most? Oh, I almost forgot, I almost never tire of the 20hz test tone on the Stereophile Test CD 1. It's an audiophile classic.Marco | |
| The Listening Chair - What type do you use? Sounds like more fun than the tube traps Dean! You may have some competition for my "Perch" tweak there too. I prefer the full-range option to the mini-monitor though, especially if you're looking for a tight bottom end. Marco | |
| Best tubes/mods for Jolida 302a Ah, well there are tons of threads on inexpensive cables and wires, and a whole section to search on AudioAsylum too. It may help to list her system components if you are asking advice about wires, since it makes little sense to buy cables and wir... |
