Internet Radio - help please Logitech Squeezebox Duet or Touch. | |
Replacing Duet with Touch? Not to hijack the thread but can anyone tell me if the Touch is an appreciable step up from the Duet? I currently have, and love, a Duet wonder if the Touch improves on it at all? Thanks. | |
Phono Preamp as Control Center Wouldn't a preamp with a built in phonostage amount to the same thing? | |
Studio 5s by Michael Green...what are they worth? Hey Chadnliz chill out ok, I just gave a best guess, no need to jump down anyone's throat. Once upon a time we all had just one post remember? | |
Studio 5s by Michael Green...what are they worth? Honestly not very much I remember as many as 6-8 years ago Audio Advisor was closing these out on deep discount. Not sure of an exact dollar total but I would doubt much more than $5-800 if that. Why not try posting a no reserve auction? | |
FOCAL UTOPIA SPEAKERS Um a lot more info would really help here, what amp? Which Focal speakers? What cabling are you using now? Rest of system? Really impossible to answer based on the info you have provided sorry. | |
Focal Micro Utopia + REL or 1028be II ? Well I have the original Micro's not the Be's and I have to say I absolutely love them even without a sub in my small condo. They are fairly easy to drive, I am running 17 pp tube watts, they are detailed but not bright and very well balanced. Bas... | |
interconnect brand/model attributes???? I recommend, as I have in the past, just buying used cables on Agon, listening to them, and then flipping them until you arrive at one you really like. It's quite easy as cables are easy and cheap to ship. It worked for me quite well. However as J... | |
Music Reference RM 9 Question Hey can you clarify how old the tubes are? Reading your post it sounds like they could be ten or more years old. If that is the case definitely retube completely, it is way past time. | |
El34 vs. KT88 I am a big fan of the EL-34 tube, I find it combines a lot of the warmth of SET tubes with more power levels and in the right implementation can sound fantastic. I have a pp 17 watt EL-34 amp and I could not be happier. This was after running thro... | |
Diversity of opinion over what I suppose I must offer a defense of JMlabs or as we are all seeming to say synergy, taste, preferences, etc. In my constant cycling through gear I ended up with a pair of the original JMlabs Micro-Utopias, more suitable to my new 900sf condo then ... | |
Have i reached the limit or do i get a new preamp I totally agree with Elizabeth a good preamp will do wonders for you system. Tubes are totally the way to go with a SS amp like the B&K. Quicksilver is a good call, not a C-J fan myself but plenty of affordable options are out there. Good luck... | |
Counterpoint SA20 Daniel,I just read that ad and wow! Sounds like AltaVista is pretty horrible, and I understand his frustration but he will never get out from under that preamp with that description. Unless of course his intent is just to slam Alta Vista in which ... | |
What did you get for Christmas? An Amazon gift card that I used to buy a Squeezebox Duet. It's my very first foray into computer audio so nervous and excited. Just wish it would get here, I mean it's been two days already! | |
Anyone else noticing inflation in used gear $? I agree completely, I was essentially not perusing the site at all for a few years and recently came back on a regular basis and was shocked at some of the prices. I have also noticed some very quick sales, it seems like every time I see something... |
