| Marantz 8260 I owned this for a week. Very good on redbook, superb on SACD. The player has an ergonomic fault which bothered me, hence the return. The tray slides out, but not all the way so...you'll find yourself slanting your CD's in and out. May not bother ... | |
| NAIM Alternatives-from people who have switched. Believe it or not I second Blue Circle. Beautiful to look at, great tonality, nice punch. Nothing is the same as Naim, but BC will give you a good alternative and, as I understand it, that is what you're asking for.Moving to tubes, nothing I've au... | |
| Very tube-friendly monitor speakers? Get the Omega from Louis Chochos. Telephone number in Connecticut is 203-847-2800. Great reviews on Enjoy The Music and TNT websites. I own a pair, I dig 'em. | |
| Whats up with Merlin? OK, I'll be the lone dissenting juror. I owned a pair of Merlin TSM-SE's (b4 the changeover to "Millenium").I ran these speakers with Naim separates. Long story short-the worst mismatch I've ever heard. Made my ears bleed. All of a sudden MOST rec... | |
| Best efficient speaker for the money. Try Omega out of Connecticut. Louis will make you a beautiful pair. Great guy, great service, wonderful product. Check the Enjoy the Music website.I run mine on 1.5 watts per side. | |
| Signalcable Company Really nice speaker cables-well "dressed". Can't go wrong for the money.I will order more from this fellow. | |
| Antique Sound Lab: Problems with ASL reliability? I was shipped two (2) of their integrated amps to audition. Both "DEAD" on arrival.You be the judge. | |
| Radiohead read on The only band that has held my interest since the "golden age" of rock and roll-and the thing is, they keep on getting better! | |
| Warning: Linn tonearm anti-skate not accurate This is interesting. There was a school of thought in the 70's when I bought my first Linn that 1 on the anti skate when tracking at 1.5-2 grams sounded better than if you set the anti-skate to the same level as the tracking. Now you're suggesting... | |
| SS amp with Merlins plinius ? I used the "little" Merlin with an all-Naim system and it was the worst sound my wife and I have ever experienced. I wish you all the luck in the world but I found the Merlin to be the most over-rated product I ever got stuck with-made my ears ble... | |
| Speakers for creek 4330 I love your little integrated amp and own the SE version. Here is the straight dope-buy Spendors! |
