| I just sold my cd player what should i get? Rwwear,I may be wrong, but I do believe that a Linn LP12 is a record player! | |
| what speakers for 40 watt triode? If your budget can stretch look for a used pair of Alon Lotus SE, with a 14 ohm woofer and 90db sensitivity these sing with my 36 watt Air Tight amp. They play as loud as you might want and the bass goes to about 38hz. You'll probably pay 1800-200... | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? Mghcanuck,I hope for your sake you get to taste some of those bottles, Y'quem is about as good as it gets. I personally find foie gras and Sauternes to be just a little too rich for my tastes but I know many people like it. I prefer salty with swe... | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? Cpdunn99,Any good Sauternes will benefit from about 10 years of bottle age. Sugar and alcohol combine to make them relatively indestructable. | |
| Where can I get quality cassettes. Go to Terrapin Tapes, www.ttapes.com. Excellent customer service and good prices. | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? Well, just got a new car, so I'll update my response. My poor 13 year old Honda with 120K miles failed DC inspection in spectacular fashion, so I now have a 2000 VW Golf GLS with 34K miles on it and I love it. | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? Cpdunn99,Don't drink those Sauternes just yet. I think another 6-7 years will make them perfect. And Agonanon, try some really good bleu cheese, i.e. Colston Basset Stilton, with your Sauternes instead of strawberries and see what you think. Cheers! | |
| Advise Needed, Best speakers for approx $15,000 I couldn't agree more with the folks telling you to take a trip. The sum of money would be trivial compared to what you're about to invest in speakers, and as said above, some dealers will help cover your travel costs. Just looking at the wide arr... | |
| Jazz suggestions please For someone current check out anything by Cyrus Chestnut, a fabulous piano player. | |
| What's your latest "Discovery" The Asylum Street Spankers, "My Favorite Record". If you guys don't know the Spankers check them out, they are fabulous! | |
| Alon Circe vs. JM Lab Mezzo Utopia I just have to say I have Alon Lotus SE MKIII's a step down from the Circe and I love 'em. I highly recommend their products. Can't speak to JMLab but others might. Good luck! | |
| Comments on Lucinda Williams "World Without Tears" It got trashed in a review in the Washington Post. They say it's so dark and hopeless it borders on satire. I'll have to listen for myself though, I love most of her earlier work. | |
| Noisy pot? Seandtaylor99, I tried your suggestion about spinning the pot and it seems to have worked. If the problem resurfaces I'll try what Sean has suggested and have printed out his instructions. Thank you all for your help! | |
| Shipping between Canada and the States Also, be careful having CD players shipped in from Canada. I had my Copland player seized for a few days until they verified that it's laser had been ok'd for the US by, I believe it was BATF. Good luck! | |
| Audio Physic Tempo 3i vs Revel F-30: Better Value? Royy,Don't sweat it. I'm in the biz and couldn't pass up the opportunity to educate. Cheers! |
