Our 2003 Las Vegas CES and T.H.E. Show Report Thanks, everybody, for the very kind comments. The disclaimer in the report that this is what *we* heard, is included because the report was also posted on Audio Asylum and there are people there who take serious offense to ... well, just about ev... | |
Audio Aero Capitole MK II: Performance & Problems Subaruguru, it is certainly the same here in the U.S. software industry (kind of obvious, huh? ever had software with any bugs in it? uncountably many did you say? ... :-). Same divide between management who wants the product shipped yesterday and... | |
Audio Aero Capitole II with no serial numbers? We are the dealer for Audio Aero in the Colorado region and we agree 110% (didn't know that %'s made sense that high, didya? Cause they don't. But anyway... :-) with Bwhite. If someone comes to us with a problem with a gray market player or amp, w... | |
Acapella ion tweeters We are a dealer for the Acapella line here in Colorado U.S.A. The tweeters are indeed available separately (at least in this country. I am surprised it is different in your country Detlof). They are $6,900 USD a pair (though the Euro/dollar conver... | |
Where does your user name come from? I guess mine is obvious too... but it is really more pretentious than it looks :-) I came up with it when at having lunch with a couple of people during a computer conference. They were from the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center - a very presti... | |
DVD thru Mark Levinson 390s Well, I am curious as to what is happening, given that I am an owner of a 390s (and so are many others out here), so any information anyone has (littlemasterfrog? Pman172?)... Please post! | |
Best SS 200 wpc amps I am an Edge Electronics dealer, so take this as you will, but the NL-10 is a very nice 220 watt amplifier with no solidstate glare and has enough speed to keep up with the microdynamics of any source. We heard it with the B&W N800s and they d... | |

Burmester 001, comment please? I have a 220V Burmester 877 mkII pre-amp. I have 'heard' that it will cost around $1250 to have it changed to 110V by the dealer. I am currently using a $20 step-up transformer that plugs into a 110V outlet and generates 220V with a European-type ... | |
Worst speakers at Stereophile show That was hilarious Doug99...!I have no worst of show... But we had a 9-way tie for best. Just another way to look at the difficulties each system had doing the making-music thang. Had me wishing that there was a system (picking and choosing from e... | |
Some thoughts about value in high-end audio Greggie is right: Because *nobody* really knows the *whole* truth, one should be wary of strongly expressed viewpoints (in any discipline). Shouting is usually just an attempt to coverup lack of perspective on the part of the shouter and distract ... | |
Audio Aero Capitole Mk.2 - any news? Last I heard is that U.S. dealers are supposed to start receiving Mk IIs end of next week/beginning of the following week.... | |
Has anyone heard the new AA Capitole 24/192 Mk II? Well, I guess no one in the states has received one yet. Figure the East Coast will get them a few days before the rest of us out here in the Wild Frontier... :-){Sound of foot tapping impatiently - to the tune of Fleetwood Mack "Green Manalishi" ... | |
Pioneer versus Elite HD RPTVs I own the Elite (the smallest, 53 incher) and after watching DVDs on a friend's regular pioneer HD RPTV (same size) here are my impressions:1. When converting an ordinary TV-size picture (Tina Turner DVD) to widescreen, digitzation artifacts were ... | |
Some thoughts about value in high-end audio I find the content on Audio Perfectionist to be hateful and resentful, rather than written in that grand old 'Expose' style.By and large, you get what you pay for in a capitalistic society, and if a manufacturer puts out a 'clunker' (and all do it... |
