| "BEST USED" CD player or players at about $1000 The Teac PD-H600 that listed for $999 and is being closed out new for $599 is a great deal. | |
| Magico, Aerial, Dali If you like the Aerial 6, the 7b and 8b have a very similar sound and are a lot more speaker for your room. I have owned all three and still have the 7b. I believe the Dali MS4 is way better than the Helicon 400. I owned the MS4, actually replaced... | |
| Cleaning the equipment How about the dust and grime that attaches to speaker drivers? | |
| Percentage of cable cost I feel cables can make a significant difference, and yes, this has included double blind tests in my system. Current cabling cost varies from 10% - 15%. I do find that used cables hold their value extremely well, so ultimately have spent very litt... | |

| Aerial 10T tweeter I believe the 8 and 10T shared the same woofer and tweeter, but mine are long gone. | |

| Aerial 10T tweeter My friend needed to replace tweeter on Aerial 8. Aerial was great, and it was an easy do it yourself fix. | |
| Onkyo 9555 My Onkyo sounded great with Vienna Bach Grands. | |
| CD Player Headphone Jack Thanks Rok2id, Any preference between the two Marantz models? | |
| CD Player Headphone Jack Just plugged the Sennheisers into a friends Onkyo DX-7555 and was pleasantly surprised. | |
| CD Player Headphone Jack No such thing as too inexpensive! I currently have Sennheiser HD 650 in main system with headphone amp, and also Grado SR80. I want to put a CD player in bedroom for headphone only listening, and wanting to keep it simple. Thanks. | |
| Inexpensive Transport Thanks Rrog, I agree, though since I already have the Simaudio from another project, I was hoping there might be a good cheap transport. I had remembered a few years ago when a few cheap DVD players were popular as transports. | |
| Mapleshade boards under speakers The customized screw-in brass footers have been great for my Dali MS4 and now MS5. I use lots of their boards and cones, always to positive effect. |
