| Multiple Copies Of LP s Same Title gregm, yes. Pretty remarkable, huh. He is my wife's favorite Violinist and although her favorite is Tchaikovsky (sp) Violin Concerto OP 35 is was not recorded as well as the Brahms or Beethoven. | |
| Multiple Copies Of LP s Same Title My wife wants to be buried with it. I told her to forget it; I was going to sell it to pay for her funeral. My youngest son (24) will probably get it when we are gone. He knows what it is. Funny thing, we went into the city on a Wednesday evening ... | |
| Multiple Copies Of LP s Same Title Frank, you are correct. If they treated the masters like treasures and had used Doug we probably would have ended up with an LP that bettered the 1s1s pressing. I am just thankful that there are reissues at all. I am also thankful that I have as m... | |
| Multiple Copies Of LP s Same Title I also am guilty. Especially with used LPS. You never know whether it sounds a little better than the other 9 you own. I once bought a Copy of Pines and Fountains of Rome (Reiner, RCA shaded dog) for $10. . It looked to have some small surface mar... | |
| Best Speakers at Stereophile show OOps. Too many nots in the first sentence. Sorry. I guess I got carried away. | |
| Best Speakers at Stereophile show Of all the threads posted here about the show why is it not one of them has not mentioned the new Nearfield Acoustics 5' (I won't call them pipedreams because I understand that they are not yet named) speakers that look like Pipedreams. Was I the ... | |
| What s your latest buy? Happy with it? I have recently become addicted to tube rolling with my computer room system (conrad johnson cav-50 integrated). Since tube rolling is out of the question with Audio Research CL-120 monoblocks(16, count em, 16 6550s) in the main system I have tran... | |
| AR-LS2b PH3 vs, Audible Illusions M3a I have owned the Audible Illusions M3A (w/ high output gold phono board) for about one year. It is mated with Audio Research CL-120s (tube hybrid mono amps). The Audible Illusions balances the very, very slightly white character of these amplifier... | |
| Best used preamp for around $1000. . . Take a look at the Audible Illusions Modulus 3A. I have seen them recently (without high gain gold phono board) for as little as $900.($2400. new) on this forum. I own one with the gold phono board and it is one outstanding dynamic preamp. Stereop... | |
| I'm very upset. Let me tell you why. Feel lucky you have a car. Some don't. | |
| Best Classical Music Conductor Fritz Reiner. It didn't hurt that he was well recorded with CSO on RCA during the golden age of stereo. | |
| Has anyone tried Aural Symphonic Cables I bought Hybrid Gen II biwire in 1994. After trying many others it was the only speaker cable that really did my Audio Research CL-120 monoblocks justice; it is clean and clear and seems to impart no sonic signature of its own. I paid $1800 for a ... | |
| Cleaning Vinyl I have owned a VPI 16.5 machine for many years and have been very happy with it. I use the brush that comes with it for really dirty records (flea market and thrift store acquisitions) and a discwasher brush for normal cleaning before play. I stil... | |
| How do Mission Speakers rate? Don't pay more than $1000. for them. Bryn Mawr Stereo was selling them for 995. awhile back on clearance. I have heard them. They are very efficient and work well with low powered tube gear. They sound great. I own a pair of 702es (bedroom system)... | |
| The best sounding FM Tuner is..... I own both a Yamaha T-2 FM tuner circa 1978 (bought new for $800.) and a Denon TU-800 AM/FM tuner circa 1989 bought used for 200.(originally sold for 500.-600.). Both these tuners are very sensitive and are available on the used market for reasona... |
