| Vinyl albums for a 'cold reality' check, pick up a goldmine guide. if by 'good' you mean 'mint' cover and record and label and inserts, and original pressing...now you're talkin some money.....overgrading records is now sweeping this marketplace. | |
| Coincident Eclipse vs Devore the partial eclipse is a truly great speaker..this sounds like audiophile boredom setting in(it happens to everyone). | |
| Replacement tube for Peachtree Audio Decco? for better or worse, a speaker change is going to have a much greater effect. | |
| Review: Sonographe SC-1 Preamplifier great review of an 'unsung' product. sonographe was actually cj's second stab at ss gear. motif being the first. | |
| Tube-aholics Anonymous? i've held on to an mc275 for 15 years, and i worked for a manufacturer of great tube gear, but being of sound mind (barely) i can honestly say, your room and your speakers play a greater role in creating a satisfying experience. tubes are pretty t... | |

| An Advent Guy my wife once refered to the look and sound of the large advents as 'handsome'.....an adjective she never used again in her three decades on my hifi merry-go-round. | |
| Help Finding my system bright... you might try putting 'plain ol' 14 guage wire between the amp, and your speakers and see what happens iand you'll only be out a few bucks if it doesn't tame the treble. | |
