| Oyaide outlets I agree with Owl, call Alan at 602.277.0799. I'd suggest the SWO-XXX, the SWO-GX might be a little too lush for tubes. | |
| Turntable cables . . . possible upgrade? Basis turntables makes one line of cables that are very, very good.http://www.basisaudio.com/ | |
| "Absolute best" used speaker for $8-10K I don't know how big your room is and I don't understand your $8,000.00-$10,000.00 unless that's just a "I want a really good floor standing speaker".The reason that I bring that up is that I believe that the Thiel 2.4 for around $4,000.00 new is ... | |
| In my system: upgrade the preamp or amp first? I agree with the pre-amp upgrade. For a fantastic and cheap upgrade pick up one of the Herron VTSP-1A/166 tube pre-amps here on Audiogon. They're less than $2,000.00 used and very special.Chuck | |
| Who carries audioprism cd stoplight in 94583 zip ? Elizabeth's right, I apologize! I was referring to the AudioPrism CD Blacklight. | |
| Who carries audioprism cd stoplight in 94583 zip ? Not trying to blow the wind out of your sails, but why do you want one?Because it's basically a cardboard-like material, mine would continually slip and many of my CD's wouldn't play.

| Thiel 1.6 vs. 2.4 vs. 3.6 using NAD c372 Go for the 2.4's. The 3.6's are too much for your room. The 1.6's that I heard can't touch the 2.4's in any area.The big question is, what are your future intentions? If you intend to stick with the NAD, the Thiels are probably too high end for wh... | |

| Trimming CD's with an Audio Desk Skipaulamusic, Thanks, that puts me more at ease.Jea48, That was great reading, thank you very much.Chuck | |
| Pranawire Deva vs. Kubala-Sosna Emotion Calloway will hopefully see this thread. I think he's tried both. | |
| Upgrade transport and lose Genesis Lens? Why don't you take your setup to a dealer and play around with it? You're guessing the transport, but what would happen if you ditched the AQ and Digital Lens, and then tried the Meridian and MIT with a newer DAC? How about ditching it all and try... | |
| What to make of my system? Have you considered replacing the tubes in your Sonic Frontiers SFL1 tube pre? The cartridge is important, but don't overlook the phono pre-amp. You've got a good one, but the tubes do need replacing at intervals.About 16 years ago I traded in my ... | |
| power cords They say so. I traded all of my home theater stuff in the early nineties and only deal in the stereo realm now. I've heard that the plasma display benefits from the better power cords, just as I'm sure the DVD player would the same as a CD player ... | |
| Theta Data Basic II cd transport Reliability ? I've had both the Theta Data Basic and Theta Data Basic II. They sound great, especially the II, but you are right about the age, reliability and parts factor. I had the Data Basic fail under warranty thank goodness, and I had the Data Basic II's ... |
