| It was 40 years ago today..... Wow! What great memories! I remember my brothers and I listening to Sgt. Pepper all the time that summer; and just being thrilled with what appeared to be (and, actually, was) such creative, exciting, strange, and different music (I think *some* o... | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors Jc - Yes, the Gryphon is very expensive. You don't give us any parameters, financial or otherwise, however. There is also the question of why you want to go with an integrated; or, more importantly, whether you are aware that separates generally w... | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors Alun - I took a look at the Rockport website (rockporttechnologies.com) and didn't see the Monitors. I can only assume that they are too new, and information hasn't been posted there yet. I would suggest calling Rockport. The phone number is on th... | |
| Rockport Mira and Mira Monitors I have owned the Antares for several years, and have had no interest, whatsoever, in looking into other speakers since. They have been for me what I dreamt they would be when I stretched my budget (considerably!) to buy them: a final speaker (afte... | |
| Blind Shoot-out in San Diego -- 5 CD Players I personally think Raquel another valuable observation - and perspective - to the discussion. | |
| The original first Hydra with Elrod statement I didn't know that about the NEMA in the original Hydra, Talon4. Rademaker: I can tell you that I use an Elrod Signature 3 with my original Hydra, and still love the combination. I have tried other conditioners since buying the Hydra, and prefer t... | |
| Neil Young at Massey Hall Old Man was released on Harvest; after After the Goldrush. | |
| The original first Hydra with Elrod statement My concern with this combination would be the (literal)weight, and stiffness of the Statement; i.e., with the NEMA twist lock a power cord can untwist and break contact. If you go this route, my suggestion would be changing the NEMA out for an IEC. | |

| Meridian 808 or NOT Meridian 808 Suggest you do a search here. There was a recent listening comparison, involving 5 audiophiles, that included the 808, EMM, APL, and DCS. The 808 did not come out on top. Of course, that's not to say that you would not prefer it. Just suggest you ... | |
| Pioneer vs. Panasonic plasma DeeCee - The 600 also has PIP, Cable Card capability, and better audio. | |
| Reference Audio Mod Oppo 970 – How good is it ? Hi Andy - Can you tell us what the mods cost? Thanks,John | |
| What is the best redbook CD player for 6K to 8K? I wish the modders would give their iterations designations. Without that, it makes comparisons very difficult. Makes it particularly difficult for someone considering a used unit. I owned an earlier Exemplar and now own the "latest" one (well, it... | |
| Pioneer vs. Panasonic plasma I've found AVS Forum extremely helpful. I agree that it is difficult to navigate; and, I find, particularly difficult to find information I need when I do a search. On the other hand, I've found it easier to use, and more helpful, as I've spent mo... | |
| Blind Shoot-out in San Diego -- 5 CD Players Onhwy61: I wouldn't say that the results from the testing are exactly/directly transferrable to my situation, if by that you mean that I *know* now that I would prefer the same player(s) in my system. Saying that is, for me, not the same as saying... |
