| Best Carver stereo solid state amplifier design By a mile. But you definitely need the power cords with them, or you won't get anywhere near the performance. Without them the RF issues with the Sunfires mean that you won't hear the detail they're capable of. The 600s are not in production anymo... | |
| Do you plan to buy The Beatles CD remasters? Shadorne: Would this be surprising? The same thing happened with the Rolling Stones remasters. They are just awful by comparison to the originals. | |

| Best Carver stereo solid state amplifier design I run two second-hand Sunfire Signature 600 amps, one per channel, with Marigo Ultra 5 power cords to deal with RF issues. In this configuration they far exceed the performance of the original production Atma-Sphere MA-1 mono amplifiers they repla... | |
| Refrigerator noise Tvad: Before you buy LG, you might consider checking the various non-Consumer-Reports sites that provide comments on appliances. Based on reports from consumers who have bought them, their reliability seems to be awful. | |
| What isolation feet to use?? Rakuennow: If you're a good enough engineer to figure out how they work, I would hope you'd also be good enough to be able to put them back together.Though if you actually try them in your system, you may not want to send them back! | |
| What isolation feet to use?? Rakuennow: Marigo provides a money-back home audition period. Perhaps you have the engineering talent to take one apart and let us know how they work! | |
| What isolation feet to use?? Marigo Mystery Feet.It's a mystery! | |
| Reissue recordings with added tracks Extra tracks on Pentangle CDs are great!!Wouldn't have it any other way!! | |
| cooling my Krell monoblocks After having lived with Atmasphere MA-1s for a long time, I can sympathize with those of you who keep amps that require you to adjust your life in negative ways to live with them. (I used to spend time with women like that too.)After many years, t... | |
| New Rowland Criterion 2-chassis battery pre You might consider trying Mystery Feet from Marigo. They made a very significant improvement in my system (detail, resolution, lack of distortion). Plus, they come with a 30-day free trial period. | |
| Richter's Well Tempered Clavier btw: Here is a youtube video of two selections from the cd. Th excessive decay/echo is relevantly similar to what is heard on a good system. Please let me know if the LP is an improvement.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRZfA5gv-dE&feature=related | |
| Richter's Well Tempered Clavier Thanks Michael. From what you say, it sounds like the problem may be limited to the cd version on RCA. (If the same problem was on LP, you would have noticed it as a problem, not as a difference in set-up, because everyone who listens to the cd ve... | |
| Richter's Well Tempered Clavier Uru975: Thank you for the eBay suggestion. Is it true that the LP versions lack the weird muffled sound of the cd version? (The one I have is RCA Gold Seal.) Any idea why the cd version is so bad? | |
| Richter's Well Tempered Clavier I appreciate the suggestion, but what I'm looking for is whether a better-sounding version of Richter's recording is available. |
