| Sell your components boys and girls, the console is back! I don't think its funny at all love the mid-century modern look very much! | |
| Is It Possible? The Quad ESL-63 is considered one of the great speakers of all time, no surprise at all there and for $900 you got the steal of the century! Enjoy. | |
| Spare Bryston B60 for headphones, or 2nd system? This is from the B60 manual, the B60 was my first piece of high end gear when I was first starting out nice integrated. "There is a quarter inch stereo (3 conductor) head-phone jack available on the front panel of the Bryston B60 integrated amplif... | |
| Which Nakamichi to choose? @orpheus10 What are the odds I looked at the pic of your deck, nice looking deck btw, and there is one listed! Looks like a good buy for $550 if I was in the market I might snap it up.https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis93faf-sony-tc-ka3es-tape-d... | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? Audio Note. | |
| Reasonably Priced 6CA7 NOS (or even good used old stock) Tubes Available Anywhere? My favorite EL34 type is the Genalex Gold Lion KT-77 reproductions. Fantastic sounding tubes top to bottom and around $200 a quad or less. Highly recommended! | |
| Which Nakamichi to choose? Back in the late 90s I used to go into Gifted Listener Audio in Centreville VA and just stand there and ogle the Tandberg 3014 they had on display. I even dragged my buddy in to ogle it with me once. Whatever they wanted for it was far beyond my m... | |

| Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! @blueranger I would very much recommend for your continued good hearing not listening for hours at 100db. | |
| Looking For 90% of the performane of the super expensive cables for much less money Keep an eye peeled for used Auditorium 23 cables they pop up from time to time. Interconnects typically $500ish speaker cables maybe $7-800. Great sounding cables. I can also highly recommend Audio Note Lexus copper cables. Hard to get used but ne... | |
| Aretha Franklin RIP One of the greatest vocalists of all time a true legend she will be missed. | |
| Is APower Conditioner For A Mostly Vintage System Worth Getting? Sure you can plug everything into it, since it's just a good power strip and not a conditioner it doesn't limit current in any way. | |
| Which Nakamichi to choose? @terry9 I have never been fortunate enough to use a CR-7a my decks were a DR-2 and a DR-10. I have no doubt a really high end deck would be a different experience. | |
| Which Nakamichi to choose? @lowrider57 I would personally never record with Dolby Noise Reductions it kills the high frequencies. |
