| Bang For Your Buck Best Value CD Transport I think that the Stello CDT-200 is a great value for its $1,500.00 list price. It was so much better than my Theta Data Basic II that I couldn't listen to it anymore and sold it.I didn't buy the Stello though, because the ONE thing it didn't do as... | |
| Looking for a crystal clear / dynamic tube preamp Herron VTSP-1A/166! There's a few right now on Audiogon for right under $2,000.00. Fantastic pre-amp!Chuck | |
| Vibration control question.... Have you ever been to the AudioPoints website and looked at reviews on the Audio Points and Sistrum stands http://www.audiopoints.com/reviews.html?This is what I use with fantastic results!Chuck | |
| Any experience w/ better equipment racks? I had a Michael Green clamp rack that I used for nine years both as a clamp rack and as a regular rack. It looks a lot like yours, but the shelves were 1" thick and the steel rods were 3/4" thick. I now have a Sistrum SP-6 from Star Sound Technolo... | |
| Johnny Cash cd's "American IV: The Man Comes Around" is not live, but an interesting CD. I heard it when I was auditioning a pair of Harbeth Super HL-5's down at Jeff's in Bloomington, Indiana.This CD was produced in Johnny's home by a producer who had always want... | |
| Help with Hydra Power Conditioner Yep, you're in trouble now. The most significant upgrade that I made to my system was a really good power conditioner.Once the noise floor drops and you start hearing the subtle things you've never heard before, it's addicting. You'll be amazed wi... | |
| What next???? Musical Fidelity gear goes good with B&W. | |
| Can metal chassis become defective? I It becomes invisible when you sell it and tell your spouse that you had to replace the piece because the case went bad.This is the newest excuse to use with your spouse to justify replacing a piece of equipment. | |
| Fuses - Why do same size fuses sound different? Stan, it's interesting that since you started posting in June of this year, most of your 60 posts have been basically negative one liners. What's your problem?If you're new to the field, why don't you acknowledge to yourself that you're just start... | |
| Fuses - Why do same size fuses sound different? I use the IsoClean fuses too, except in my pre-amp. It comes with a 1/2 Amp fuse in it, and the smallest IsoClean is 1 Amp. I called the designer of the pre-amp, Keith Herron, and he asked me not to use it, that the posiibility of the additional 1... | |
| Which musician retired too soon? I have to agree with Sogood51 about David & David. I have the album and the CD, and the CD is one of my references I take when auditioning any new piece of equipment.I also just bought Cat Stevens' "Tea for the Tillerman" and "Catch Bull at Fo... | |
| B&W or Sonus Faber with Musical Fidelity A5? Like S7Horton, I have the A308, not the integrated though, I have the power amp. I'm running B&W Silver Signature's, the 805's grandfather, and the combination sounds great.I have heard the Sonus Faber Cremora Auditor's with the A308 integrate... | |
| Are my cables burning in IF... Yes, Yes. | |
| Favorite Center?? If you're an audiophile or in the least bit picky, you're asking a question that you should not be asking. If you don't match the center speaker with your mains, you're going to run into the very good chance of a bad situation.Think about a vehicl... | |
| More Power is always good? Think about being in a car pulled off on the side of the interstate. You want to get back on but there's a lot of traffic. Would you be safer trying to get up to speed to merge back onto the interstate with a four-cylinder or a turbocharged V-8?Th... |
