Great sounding new vinyl
the universal japan releases are uniformly excellent. quiet as they come. very pricey, but if you find some of your favorites in this line, its worth it. the steely dan- aja is as close to the original abc as they come. 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
report in Rebbi... i think you'll be amazed in more ways than one. 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
no more bouncing than a conventional speaker. the sound stage is what ohm is famous for. the fact that they are balanced across the bandwidth, and convey weight, is the icing and the cherry on the cake. 
more power for Spendor S8e?
your amp and speakers are fine. 
Hi End rack really deliver?
its really impossible to audition a rack. just buy something you think 'looks' good. 
advice for speakers to buy ?
their all very nice, but living voice are perhaps a cut above in that price range. i would also (in that price range) look into ruark, which is a superb all rounder, and maybe even better than the living voice. 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
never harsh or 'in your face'...but not overly sweet...neutral 
what are the thoughts of stand alone super tweeter
generally speaking, a band aid for a loudspeaker, a placement, or room problem....rarely a cure. 
Opinions on budget TT
of the ones listed, the clearaudio is the one. plays well above the price you're paying. 
Favorite version s of Autumn Leaves?
the great jazz trio (autumn leaves is the lead track, as well as the albumn title). hank jones and elvin jones together. incredible. 
Is music quality moving away from the "audiophile"
they were never even room mates 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
john is correct. they really change character very little by pulling away from the back wall. 
Audio note amp driving b&w????
i would think very hard before buying any flea watt amp...or building a system around an amp. you don't need tons of power, but any quality amp (with even tiny balls) can drive most moderately efficent speakers, and even some that require more juice. 
Mark Levinson No.512 CD Player---Opinions
1.i believe that levinson never went away. 2. they have consistantly made great front ends 3. no 'cd' player on God's green earth is worth 15k...not levinson or the usual suspects......its very easy to find dozens of players (new and used) that so... 
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em?
18 inches to 24 inches would be ideal.....
