| mother passed away - pro recording help needed I have no recommendations on recording equipment, but please let me say how sorry I am for your loss. | |
| Your "DREAM" piece Wow, that's a tough one. I think I'd have to say, after much deliberation, a Nagra PL-P preamplifier. That's a piece of audiophile eye/ear candy I've lusted after for years! And if not that, then a Linn Sondek CD-12. I want them both, waaaaaaaaaaa... | |
| Looking for a good pre-amp to mate with Cary V12i Clio09,FYI my Herron has 14db of gain and you can usually find them used for about $2K. Good luck! | |
| Looking for a good pre-amp to mate with Cary V12i Clio09,The output impedance of my Herron is 100 ohms nominal. I don't know enough about electronics to say if that would make it an appropriate match but something tells me it would do just fine. Perhaps someone else can weigh in with a more techn... | |
| CDP or Transport/DAC- Need help Barolobrain,I would recommend a used Cary 306/200 or perhaps a used Wadia 861, both are in or below your price range and offer balanced outputs. I would characterize the Cary as being on the detailed but warm and musical side, and the Wadia being ... | |
| Looking for a good pre-amp to mate with Cary V12i I have owned and very much liked a Supratek Syrah, but I prefer my current preamp, a Herron VTSP1A/166 even more. It is the quietest tubed preamp I've ever owned, with a wonderfully natural and organic sound. It has plenty of fine detail but it ne... | |

| Best CD player for under $6000 used? Um, Chelentano, wrong thread. Your $600 thread is still out there, don't worry. | |
| Lucinda Williams Fans? Also I just went to Amazon and ordered it! Now I can't wait! | |
| Lucinda Williams Fans? She is great! Fantastic songs and a great voice, though I think Gillian Welch's voice is just a bit better. It's great having them both though! | |
| How Big is Your Music Collection CD's- 550SACD's- 2 but listened to as cd'sLP's- 60DVD-V's- 4And always growing! | |
| What to buy C123666,The obvious question is, if Lirpa Audio Designs are the absolute best, why aren't they in your system? I don't mean to be a smartass (this time) but with that kind of recommendation I would think that you used those speakers. Hopefully you... | |
| Cable support poll. I have a group of very young children doing this for me. It keeps them off the streets and they perform a badly needed service at the same time. Care and feeding's a bitch though! | |
| strange sounds on rvg recordings/ or i'm crazy Vocalizing, especially by piano players is quite common. Oscar Peterson in particular does this on almost all of his recordings. I think that as recording and our stereo systems improve we are simply better able to hear things like this, like it o... |
