| Why are brick and mortar HiFi dealers so bad? Every city/town has at least one or a few independent audio equipment dealers. The first feature is to look for one that has a top notch in house repair capability. These type of places do exist. Many of them have a small inventory of new equipmen... | |
| i'm looking for something that may not exist A product not mentioned much in these forums is the Cayin N6. Won't fit in a small pocket like a Walkman but perhaps a large pocket. Plays FLAC and other less compressed files. Sound is superb. Goes for around $600. Check reviews on the net. A uni... | |
| Fear of Streaming This doesn't address your aim to stream music but does address your desire to tune into Buffalo Bills games. There is a site called VIPBOX. There you can watch almost any sports events and other things. Some popup and spam blockers may prohibit th... | |
| Which vintage direct drive? I can't comment on some of the brands mentioned but I can comment on Pioneer tables. The PL-70 that the OP mentioned in the list of possibilities is a step above the PL-530 I bought new in the 70's. Have gone thru a few cartridges and am now us... | |
| Audiodesk pro with only water Here's something interesting.........http://vinylhive.com/diy-record-cleaning-fluid-recipes/ | |
| Audiodesk pro with only water Have you ever noticed how inexpensive many printers are for computers? Simple. The companies make most of their money on the sales of ink cartridges. If you used a couple or a few drops of Photoflo in distilled water, I can't see how a warranty co... | |
| Audiodesk pro with only water I don't own one of the cleaning machines and I certainly don't know what materials are put into the fluids that are sold to be used with them. I suspect that it is a "brew" of a few liquids. One comment I do have is the use of some sort of surfact... | |
| Please Make Audiogon Cool The OP posed a very valid question sure to elicit the numerous responses already seen here. Manufacturers, scientists, audio experts, etc. are sure to respond to any question or comment. The reason I survey posts on these forums is to hear wh... | |
| Bookshelf Speakers that have to be up against the wall millercarbon is completely correct! All of those things suggested should be investigated. BUT!!!!!....Are you completely locked in to the placement of your speakers? If so, your options are limited. Even if you replace your existing speakers, ... | |
| Bookshelf Speakers that have to be up against the wall You've had some pretty good suggestions here. Speaker placement is paramount to making speakers sound as good as they are capable. Sounds like you are restricted to placing the speakers so close to the wall. "Bookshelf" speakers that are rear p... | |
| Bit Disappointed in NAD In my earlier post I explained that when I purchased my NAD C375BEE (from an authorized dealer) I requested the phono module at the same time. The dealer, which is also a very capable facility in repairing equipment, installed the phono module.... | |
| Bit Disappointed in NAD Yes, you should not have been charged the diagnostic fee with the warranty still in force. I have the same NAD amp as you. The 375 is capable of accepting two add on modules...phono and DAC. Since most of my listening is vinyl I opted for the p... | |
| Who remembers audio from the time when ... In the late 60's I was in high school. At the time, my main interest was playing in a band with some of my school buds. We were pretty good for an amateur band and were the band of choice for many school functions. In those days in Atlanta, Ga.... | |
| How have I missed out for soooo long!!!! millercarbon....Why can't you just let the OP just enjoy what he has discovered instead of suggesting what "could have been"? I like to think that people posting on these forums like to share their personal opinions or offer suggestions for improv... | |
| Phono Preamp The Slee review mentioned in a previous post rates a model near the bottom of the Slee line. And, the wallwort power supply is vastly inferior to their PSUI power supply. Positive and negative reviews can be found on almost every piece of audio gear. |
