| ZYX Ultimate with carbon fiber cantilevers -- listener reviews? I found the review, it is a PDF on Sorasound's website. Here is a copy/paste version:The UNIverse Premium, the latest masterpiece of ZYX’s chief designer Hisayoshi Nakatsuka, is a statement product culminating from 50 years of experience in cartri... | |
| Speaker recommendation for married couple Agree with audiotroy in that it is odd that she liked both KEF LS50 and Sonus Faber which are two totally different animals. Maybe totally different sonically, but perhaps they were the two smallest speakers that she saw. ;^)I recall my wife ma... | |
| New turntable or new cartridge? Congratulations! Enjoy your new table/arm! | |
| My Audio Research experience @thazeldean , I'm sorry that my reply "miffed" you a bit.Yes, it was sarcastic, because I found your whole "car analogy" to be totally useless and inane. I tend to look for humor when reacting to foolishness.I'm sure that I am not alone, as there ... | |
| Jm Giels.... RIP Sad. One of my favorite bands in my younger years. I saw them a couple times in the mid to late 70’s.RIP J. Geils. | |
| New turntable or new cartridge? +2 on the new table/arm. I'm also enjoying a Prime, after owning a Scout for a couple of years. I'll 2nd all of @stereo5 comments about it.Also, I can't imagine there being much of a benefit to putting a $3,500 cartridge on a Scout. | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! Woah...those new Splash R's are more than 4 times the price of the Game Changers. That's getting to be some serious coin. I hope they are better! | |
| Can the WAF Kill an Audio System? when you buy her new coffee tables just be sure there is sub in each one HA! About 15 years ago I bought my wife an "end table" to sit between our recliners....of course it also is a subwoofer. ;^) | |
| Expectations for warranty repair timing I would say that some of it depends on the country of manufacturing. If the company is in the same country as you, I agree, that a month should be plenty of time to provide most common services. However, if you are dealing with International shipp... | |
| Wife trouble NEVER run after a woman. Ha! This reminds me of an old saying that my Mother always used to say:That a man chases after a woman until she catches him. ;^) | |
| Clarity Cable Review Are you still using any HFC cables/cords Calvin?Surely the Clarity Cable cannot be better than Tara Labs, can it? ;^)It's not easy find out much information about these cables, like what type of conductors are they using? Copper? Silver? Gold? Hyb... | |
| ARC Ref 5se inferior to LS28? I would agree if we were discussing a comparison of the Ref 6 and Ref 5SE, or LS28 and LS27. I've not yet seen ARC claim a new LS is better than a recently discontinued Ref series. I've seen/heard it before Larry. Same thing happened around 5... | |
| This is pretty funny and probably true for most of us @68pete , you will notice that lou_setriodes said "new girlfriend", not "wife".I think most fellas will find girlfriends much more accommodating, in many ways, than wives. Girlfriends still follow the 'what's your is yours' mantra, whereas many wi... | |
| This is pretty funny and probably true for most of us Very funny, though true in many cases.My wife and I have a "Do not ask, Do not tell" policy when it comes to our discretionary spending. She has never asked what anything I buy costs, and I feel no compulsion to bring it up. I do likewise with her... | |
| Wife trouble I have found that mine is less annoyed by my audio addiction if I am less annoyed by her jewelry, shoes, clothes, and other frivolous spending. +1. My wife can hardly complain about my audio expenses considering her frivolous spending.@stanw... |
