| Good CDs Bad Recording +1 lowrider57. Too many poor recordings from the 80's to even start listing.Looking back, it's amazing how many folks bought that "Perfect Sound Forever", line as bad as those recordings were the first 6-8 years of digital sound.Thankfully, digita... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? I'm wondering, why all of the hoopla over expensive wire/fuses? Why don't we fuss over acoustic treatments more? Wires have been the low hanging fruit in this hobby for decades now for those that enjoy a good troll thread. Fuses are relatively n... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? Interesting that none of the commenters on 10K+ cables and expensive fuses has mentioned any experience listening to and comparing them... You must be in the wrong thread. I have seen many comparisons of fuses and cables in other threads. Searc... | |
| bryston b100sst as pre-amp @tls49 , +1. Does the OP have a very large room, or listen at very loud levels that would require more power? Remember, doubling power only adds 3 dB.Personally, if I were looking to split this integrated amp up, which I am not saying is even nece... | |
| Sain line system cables a hidden giant killer. I'm happy to hear that you are enjoying your Sain cables. Enjoy the music and ignore the noise. ;^) | |
| Etiquette for a listening session? @bdp24 , +1, I am right there with you pal.I am not a big socialite, but I do have gatherings and friends over from time to time. Though most of them are aware of my 'audio addiction' problem, as it is visible, I've never fired up the rig when com... | |
| Etiquette for a listening session? Much like George Thorogood's system of drinking alone, I listen alone, yeah, with nobody else.You know when I listen alone, I prefer to be by myself. ;^) | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? Has a hot chick ever come up to you and asked to stroke your cables (your audiophile cables. Get your mind out of the gutter!)? My wife just asked to hold my new Purist Audio power cord two nights ago.Sure, I let her. The girth and heft amazed h... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? Here we go again. Throw some more troll bait in the water, and let's go fishing.Been there, done that. | |
| Why are so many companies like harbeth making old speakers designs and charging thousends? Have the prices of the speakers (and everything else) gone up ... or has the value of the money gone down? Little bit of column A, little bit of column B. | |
| Tube rolling.... Hopefully Ralph Karsten of Atma-Sphere (moniker: atmasphere), will chime in with a good recommendation. He is a regular on these forums. | |
| What's going on with the audio market? Idiocracy is a documentary film of current events. ;^) | |
| what is the problem with too much tracking force? Hello all, I made the adjustment to the vtf. It is now 1.76 precisely! Listening now. and.......did you notice any difference? | |
| Why are so many companies like harbeth making old speakers designs and charging thousends? Which had some points to it, and made me think twice would you want to spend money on something that takes quite a bit of real estate in a starter home with older technology. Or a speaker that sounds as good or the same. With the same price sm... | |
