Urgent help: fuse breaker box for dedicated line?
DT. You might try going to a wholesale electrical warehouse where electricians buy their parts from. They might even be able to sell you the box you're looking for and they would be most qualified to answer your questions. Usually in the morning a... 
grainy sounding high end system
The comment made by "Zaikeman" that situations like this are more common than many audiophiles care to admit is right on. Surely an uphill battle with so details (many of which "Benthar" addressed) that need our attention/fine tuning. One another ... 
grainy sounding high end system
All the pieces of the puzzle are of high pedigree so one would think the resulting sound would be fantastic, but it isn't for some reason. Room acoustics, cables, your state of mind and many other factors(some of which we can never conquer complet... 
speaker cables recommendations
I would consider a warm sounding cable. One possible choiceof interconnects/speaker wire would be Cardas. Do some research on this site and determine which wires fall into the "warm" side. Also, to add to the confusion, will you decide to bi-wire ... 
budget amplification - what to get?
Hi Roc doc. If the idea of a passive pre-amp interests you,consider the Creek 4330/R. I personally haven't heard this model but others have spoken quite highly of this int. amp.A few years back I had the Acurus A-100/RL-11 combination. I would inv... 
Does It Make Sense to Purchase Dunlavy Speakers
I saw the ad also. The prices are still quite high, especially if you factor in the shipping costs. If you were to audition and pick-up at the store my concerns about shipping damage/system synergy would greatly be reduced. As far as driver/crosso... 
budget amplification - what to get?
Hi Roc doc. The int. amps you mentioned above would all be fine choices to consider. If you're considering Jolida doconsider the 301 and the 102b also. If used doesn't bother you, listed for sale here are the Rotel RA-985 and Arcam Delta 290 int. ... 
Three days until Christmas
Happy Holidays to everyone. I'm new to Audiogon and I wantyou to know how much I've enjoyed reading your comments.(I'dlike to apologize to anyone who may have tried to e-mail methrough A-gon and did not get a response back. My e-mail was not prope... 
Where does your user name come from?
Hungarian word for music or musical note. 
The best audio steal or deal you've ever gotten?
That's great what you're willing to do for the next guy. I really believe, "What goes around comes around." I haven't had a deal quite as yours, but, many years ago (1980-81) I workedat a audio chain store where the JBL Rep. offered all of usa 65%... 
Reliablity of Jolida equipment
As far as I could tell I would say the quality of their products seems very good especially if one considers the asking price. I own two of their pieces (JD-102b and 301) and I'm very impressed so far.(I only wish they had an tape out as standard ... 
Speakers to go with a Jolida 302b
I took a quick look to see what's available used on this site and these would be what I would look into: Epos 14, Spica TC-50, B&W DM 305, B&W 640i, Snell E IV, and Vandersteen 1B/1C. Can't see going wrong with any of these and you'd have ... 
Loudspeakers that match well w/Bryston B-60?
Just wanted to follow-up and let you know where things stand. I was using very ineffecient loudspeakers w/my Bryson B-60r and I was not pleased. I was thinking that the amp was not musical enough for my tastes. I always wanted to try tubes so I we... 
My wife finally got it
You're all ahead of the game. My wife of 12 yrs. has very good hearing in one ear only(w/virtually nada in the other ear.) So you image when Santa brings a new boom-boom toy (as my younger daughter calls it) into our home. She's really a good spor... 
Speakers to pair with Arcam A65 plus under $600?
Hi Bundee1. The JM Lab 706/707 are quite a bit diferrent. The 707 uses a 7" double coil woofer which gives stronger bass and balances the sound better. The speaker is rather heavy and the cabinet does not resonant at high volume. The sound from th...
