Cable TV hum and related ??'s
Sorry to jump in. I have a question for Bob_bundus and Fpeel. I have experienced "ground Loop" and I think I have tamed it by MAGIC and/or chater plug (MAGIC lost some channel resection and did not completely got rid of the constant baxx). This me... 
Placette Passive Pre
Dekay,There is a forum for FT Audio here; http://harmonicdiscord.com/forums/There may be owners who actually compared with Placette. I DO own LW-1, but have not heard Placette. Ken 
FT Audio/ Passive Preamps - Comments?
Hi Dekay, long time no see (you gave me suggestions regarding DAC - Bel Canto or PT, etc. - a while ago). I happen to own FT audio. I haven't tried other passive, but this one is really really good from high to low. The usual caveat people mention... 
Antique Sound Labs
Go to Audioasylum.com and search. I believe there is a review or two on Wave + some threads. I am eying on their 1006 and Fox series, too. Ken 
Antique Sound Labs Headphone Amp
Bmotorcycle,I can't agree more. Actually, it was HA-1 that took my eyes (I mean ears) at the first place. But I was pretty sure that wife would be pissed off by that kind of instant spending. So, I look around to find MG Head, and succeeded to pur... 
Recievers versus separates
Depends on what you seek from the system.For me, I have Marantz SR18EX receiver, which some say is as close to separate as possible. I bought good front speaker because I thought Marantz deserved better speakers. Then, I bought stereo integrated a... 
Antique Sound Labs Headphone Amp
Jim,You have probably checked Headwise.com by now. But as a new user of MG Head, I can tell you this. MG Head is amazingly a good piece of equipment. I don't know what kind of music you listen to, but if you are acoustic music "junkie", tube HP am... 
Smear campaign?
Trelja is very right. I have been reading your post and whatever verdict you give, the method is reasonable understandable, and fair.So, I hereby propose Audiogon to show posters' IP address, and gate name on the post. I believe it is technically ... 
Sonus Faber s Integrated Amplifier?
Otdriller, I envy you for living with Guarneri. I know I can't reach there, but I am just curious, what front-end equipment do you use? Analog? Digital? And cables? Ken 
Sonus Faber s Integrated Amplifier?
6 RCA inputs + 1 RCA output for recording device. Very simple design with NO remote, and numbering only (1 to 6) for source selection. Speaker binding post is wonderful WBT with plastic cap. 
Sonus Faber s Integrated Amplifier?
There is one review here; http://thestar.com.my/audio/story.asp?file=/1998/9/03musicaI personally own one with Signum, and the combination is nothing but "superb." You have to believe it, or ask yourself "why SF - a speaker manufacturer - bothered... 
CD/DVD transport VS. CD only transport
Jfrech, so are you saying that there is no "compromise" in Muse's combination of DVD/CD capacity for 2 channel audio transport? Do they have without analog output version of 9? Like I said, I have faith in my PT DAC and would like to utilize it. Ken 
Perpetual Technologies P3A DAC
Hi Treyhoss,No, I am not from TX either. But, again, you can just try it for 30days, OR you may want to ask Mark Schifter himself or Jon Lane to rent you the "burnt-in" unit (there must be some as a few people have actually returned after trial).A... 
Perpetual Technologies P3A DAC
Treyhoss,First of all, just keeping them powered on (there is no power switch, though) will help burn-in. So, you can expect the effect in a few weeks before 30 days.And, the difference (improvement or not) should be instantly noticeable.I believe... 
How to reduce CD Transport noise?
