NetFlix long Waiting time
I work with a number of folks that prefer Indian movies and have mentioned their equal frustration with NetFlix. Virtually every movie is listed as long wait, and generally, regardless of how long they wait, they never receive any of the disks. Cl... 
NetFlix long Waiting time
I too have had good luck so far with NetFlix, but I understand that its probably just a matter of time before something goes awry. I was initially drawn to them because of the unlimited viewing time, and I still find this one of their most compell... 
what is "redbook"?
Thank you as well. We really need an audio glossary on this site :-).Ken 
Digital Support
Robedk: I'm a little confused. Rcprince did a nice job of explaining what he saw as the virtues of vinyl, and described the ways he found to produce a good analog experience. He spent a bit of his time and energy to politely explain to you some be... 
A minor rant
And you say this like its a bad thing.Now, where'd I put my saws-all... 
A minor rant
I think you guys are missing the point. Since 15 bearings show improvement over 3, then one would think that 30 would be even better. 60...well, audio nirvana. The trick is that 60 bearings simply won't fit under this puny amp, so next month's rev... 
SonusFaber GP? Other recomendations?
Tom: It would surprise me if there were no dealers at all for ProAc in an area the size of Seattle. Audiogon has contact info for just about every manufacturer off of their home page and they do have a listing for the ProAc distributor. You might ... 
Adcom ACE-615 Power Conditioner
In addition, the Monster HTS-2500 also offers sequential power on/off 
As-Is, What does it mean?
I believe that in California at least, there is a "good faith" law that requires the seller and buyer to conduct their transcation based on some measure of trust and truth. Clearly, if the seller indicates that an item is in perfect shape, and it ... 
SonusFaber GP? Other recomendations?
Based on your likes and dislikes above, you might want to take a listen to the ProAc Response 2.5's. I have them and think they have all the qualities you mention, but offer a somewhat better sound than the Grand Piano's in my estimation. I spent ... 
Is it possible to remote on a tube amp
Jim: The 2500 has a set of outlets that are timed on/off so that the amps can go on last and off first. The unit is controlled remotely by the presence or absence of a 110V potential across a special input. I'm using a cheap remote controlled rece... 
Should 2nd. Buyer Receive Guarantee ?
BTW - Conrad Johnson does provide a transferable warrantee on their Premier products (at least for the 12 and 17LS) from the original owner to subsequent owners. There are a few conditions on this, but it appears as though they will honor the warr... 
Is it possible to remote on a tube amp
Actually, I value the remote more for powering off than on. When I'm finished listening, its nice to press a single button and have the entire system power down reliably (which in my case means sequentially) without having to fuss about with the 5... 
Is it possible to remote on a tube amp
I use a Monster HTS-2500 with my CJ amps and the remote features work just fine. The conditioning helps quite a bit as well (I have very noisy AC), however its easy to tell when the current draw gets beyond what the conditioner can reliably provid... 
Hovland v. c-j 17LS
I'm sorry to say that I've never heard the Hovland, but I have had a 17LS for about a year now (first on my block to have one) and can talk a bit about its performance. So far, I'm extremely pleased with it. The sound is classic CJ (warm, detailed...
