| An Excellent New Read: "A Brief History Of Why Artists Are No Longer Making A Living..." I agree that "cultural appropriation" or "cultural theft" are ridiculous concepts. | |
| Melody Gardot - Which albums to buy? My One and Only Thrill is my favorite. | |
| Component isolation The room is full of vibrations -- that’s what sound is. So, I’m not a true believer in vibration control, mostly because there’s no such thing IMHO. Tube dampers will make a difference with microphonic tubes. And you want something to stabilize yo... | |
| How many brands use own drivers? This question has been asked before. But since you asked: Tannoy. | |
| Lets replace my Klipsch La Scala Speakers It's a no-brainer: Tannoy Prestige, if you can afford it. | |
| Just wanted to share that I got a new reviewing gig with Six Moons.com website Congratulations! | |
| Is the Cary SLP-05 still relavant? It's my reference preamp :) | |
| PS Audio vs NAD M12 razorbraun, the NAD M12 looks nice, but the sound is prolly mid-fi at best. My advice is don't waste your money, | |
| PS Audio vs NAD M12 Another thing about the NAD M12 that's a huge red flag IMHO is that there's no information about which D/A chip is used. The NAD website doesn't mention it, and none of the reviews mention it. It's a pig in a poke AFAIK. | |

| Klipsch!. The worst speaker company, EVER? "Music is supposed to be a fun distraction, not a beat down for what one person likes/dislikes." That is so true! | |
| Amplifiers for KEF Blades with Cary SLP-05 premap. The Art Audio Jota HC with 300 BXLS tube will produce 24 wpc, which is plenty of SET power for your Blades. I went the website for Art Audio USA, and it looks like the Jota may have been discontinued. If so, I'd look for a used Jota HC. | |
| Daily Audiophile Yes, that is a convenient sight. | |
| I am sure this has been discussed but want a fresh take. Mapleshade / Timbernation racks? I like the Salamander Archetype, but I wish that Salamander still made the twin platform (double-wide) Archetype shelf.Personally, I don’t pay much attention to vibration control except with a turntable and loudspeakers. You don’t want your turnta... |
