| Seeking opinions on PMC IB2 i don't own these, but i can tell you i logged many hours at audio perfection in mpls listening to them. they are superb. much much better than the touted ATC monitor types. i believe the 14 inch stands would be fine, particularly in an average si... | |
| Break in period if it sounds fine, don't worry about break in. critics have loaners for as long as some folks own components. cj always sounds great, broken in or not. | |
| Bill Evans Vinyl on Riverside when you consider how much we spend on equipment, the riverside box is like winning the lottery. the recordings are as good as can be expected...and evans?.....the seminal jazz pianist. | |
| How significant is a power cord upgrade? it won't make a bad system sound good, but it might improve a bit. | |
| Best speakers ever 4 small room? go ohm. | |
| Cartridge comparison for best match a retip perhaps, since you have a classic cartridge. | |
| Need advice for full range speaker with bottom end i would recommend used hales, b&w matrix, dunlavy, duntech, ohm, etc for great full range speakers at close to 2k. the more power the better, and the bigger model, the better. | |

| Current recordings on vinyl? most new titles and reissues are taken from the same masters used for cd. it isn't financially possible given the quanties to do it any other way. | |
| DTS vs Digital Surround vs. THX there is less compression with dts than dolby digtal surround. either format(by title)can buy a thx license. | |
| why are most new releases going to four sides? the thorens is fine...just a sarcastic comment about the state of the vinyl industry. the 45 rpm 'second bie' approach from the labels is just a way to get 'found money' on each release. | |
| B&W 803D or Dynaudio C2's both are balanced, but the 803 plays real bass too. | |
| Basis Debut Mk v or Walker or Brinkman ? strapper221 owns one. my opinion is, since its a very, very refined and well made table, and he has lots of records, don't throw the basis under the bus. it is an overlooked gem. |
