| Shipping prices and buyers... Thanks to all for chiming in, appreciate your inputs. I have not submitted this matter for formal arbitration with AudioGon as I'm trying to work through the issues with the buyer. I woudln't be surprised if it this matter does end up in arbitrati... | |
| Return to Audio: What Products to Consider? I suspect Naim is overlooked cuz their stuff is ugly and appears to be mid-fi (I know better, just an observation though). Linn...so many folks are anti-Linn for a few reasons. Ivor is an insufferable egotistical moron, and many Linn owners have d... | |
| Shipping prices and buyers... I recently sold an item to a gentleman and the transaction was less than satisfactory. The item was "as new" with no functional or cosmetic faults at all. The item was listed at $425 and the buyer offered $350; he would cover Paypal fees but I had... | |
| Apogee Duetta Sigs? Help with new amp Classe. Dave Reich and Jason Bloom were quite close back when the two companies flourished. Apogees needed current and Classe delivered in spades. I used several amps with my Duettas, the Classe VHC was the best match. Scour the web, any Classe am... | |
| No interest in battery powered components? Call me lazy, but I'm not interested in spending time trying to set up a battery powered system. It seems to me there's a business opportunity for the power conditioner companies...One unit that houses the batteries and has an intelligent recharge... | |
| Got Hip? Mes,Gord's solo release, "Coke Machine Glow" was quite a disappointment to say the least. Basically, Gord has someone jot down his random ramblings when the Hip are playing live. If you've seen the Hip live or own "Live Between Us" you know the ra... | |
| Got Hip? I was traveling this week and just got home, I'm going to pick up "In Violet Light" today. Hopefully it's as good as their best release (to date) "Day for Night". Oh, if any of you are interested, you can go to www.thehip.com and order "Day for Ni... | |
| Is there such a thing as a good analogue turntable Oracle Alexandria is an excellent semi-automatic turntable. If you want one of those add on arm lifters drop me a note. Best, Jeff | |
| Best power for 10,000 BATVK500 solid state amp and a VK50SE tube preamp, bought used here on the 'Gon. If I had $10k to spend, I wouldn't hesitate | |
| Speakers to match Audio Refinement Complete? I had great success using Totem Rokk's with the AR Complete. Beautifully built speaker and non-fatiguing, terrific value and priced so it would be a natural fit with a Complete. | |
| What are the 5 most overrated rock albums? Interesting how you picked five records to disparage and I happen to like all of them quite a bit. Oh well, to each his/her own. I'm not sure I could honestly pick out five recordings to slam, like Sean they tend to come in bunches from the same a... | |
| Cd players with volume control. I have a Dynaco listed for sale here for $400, take a look | |
| Got a Thorens TD-147.. Questions?? Comments???? Atta boy, not a bad table at all! I agree, pick up an inexpensive Grado and let her rip (no pun intended). Your next purchase needs to be a record cleaning machine, either a Nitty Gritty or a VPI. You current collection will sound much better and ... | |
| Recommended SS AMP for under 1,000 Read on... Classe Audio DR8 or DR9, they come up used evey now and then and are an ideal with ML's. | |
| entry planar setup Piglet,How about a pair of Martin Logan Aerius? If you want to avoid power cords you can find used Apogees on the 'net BUT ribbons sure need plenty of current to get 'em going. Think Classe, Krell, McCormack, Levinson kind of juice... I'd lean tow... |
