| Man Cave or No? I had my system in a couple of small living rooms. My wife was always cool with it but there never was enough room. I did enjoy having music in the main part of the house, particularly on weekends when we have the usual beer-wine-cooking events. N... | |
| Speltz Anti Cable Speaker Cable I tried it and could not get a good tight fit with the double spades on the amp end. The stiffness of the wire didn't help either -- one side would pop out while I was trying to tighten down the other side. Very frustrating. The sound from my Tyle... | |
| My analog tuner drifts off the station Thanks for all the suggestions. David, I'll try leaving it on for awhile to see if that helps, thanks. Jeff. | |
| My analog tuner drifts off the station some would say it's a good metaphor for my life. | |
| Is there such a speaker...(loud but smooth)? It's been a long time but I remember that my good old JBL 4311b control monitors could play really loud and still sound good, not concert levels though. Really miss those speakers. There are probably vintage and current JBL (pro market not best bu... | |
| Leave an amp "on" permanetly I also turn my system off because I want to reduce energy use. If I leave my system on all day when not listening, that is 8 hours of energy consumption that did not have to happen. You gotta start somewhere. Little bit for me, but it adds up when... | |

| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Try listening to a few Mapleshade CDs. I'm personally not crazy about most of the music - I have around 10 disks - but the quality of the recordings is amazing. I'm not good at describing sound with words, but 'getting to the soul of the music' so... | |
| Full range speakers with small footprint? Wow, thanks for all the suggestions, lots I never even considered. Of all the speakers mentioned, the only ones I have actually listened to are Meadowlark and Totem. I did enjoy the Meadowlark sound. Has anyone heard the Osprey? Out of my budget, ... | |
| Full range speakers with small footprint? Thanks for the suggestions...I'll check them all out.Budget? I would like to go up to about 2.5K or so used, but I would probably have to duke it out with my wife to spend that much. | |
| JBL lovers I had 4311b Control Monitors purchased around 1980. I remember them being wonderfully clear and natural sounding. Kind of bookshelf sized but really heavy and with bass that could rattle windows. I often wonder what they would sound like with the ... | |

| Vandersteen users: How low can you go with tubes Thanks for all of the excellent information and amp recommendations. I am pretty partial to ARC right now, mostly because this is the only brand that I have been able to audition carefully and really liked the sound. Not to mention the extensive u... |
