Audio Salons in Greenwich, CT
Audiocom has recently moved their store to greenwhich ave. Check them out there instead... but i didnt think they carried revels. 
CD Players opinion needed
EMC 1 MK II all the way.... although i dont think its as good as the audio aero capitole its pretty close for a much cheaper price... 
Merlin TSMM's with ML 383 + ML 37 or 39????
I agree with the suggestions above: cary or an emc1 both are better than a 39 and the 37 wouldnt even work. Also look into resolution audio and shanling. For the money though a used cary 306/100 seems to be hard to beat especially with some of the... 
Best amp for 5k used? SS or Tube
Turns out that the sim audio stuff is really really good... but i think after a long phone call with mike at talon audio that im going to go with the bel canto mono blocks. The best supposetly is a rowland 8tihc but it just costs too much for what... 
How best to spend 2500 CD player for my system?
For running direct look at a resolution audio or a shanling piece. If you want a cd player for not running directt there is really only one obvious choice the electrocompaniet emc 1 mk II easily one of the best cd players in the world and it even ... 
Pass x250, Talon Khoruses , what now ?
Speak to stewart of SOS he knows more about pass labs equipment with talon speakers then just about anyone else out there. I'm sure he will know just what you need. You could also try running direct (the new shanling looks nice) and sell your rega... 
Equi Tech Q-2 or Powersnake Hydra
I have the stealth and it is awesome but if you saw it you'd swear the thing didnt cost more than a hundred bucks. Anyways ... i havent compared it to anything like tony has. I read the comprehensive review on enjoythemusic.com and i was sold. Not...

Best amp for 5k used? SS or Tube
Hi stewart i have discussed this on the phone with you a few times. I have looked into pass amps but many of my friends who own talon speakers really dont seem to like them. They also only got a meager review in TAS. Still i must admit i'm sure th... 
Best amp for 5k used? SS or Tube
The krell amp is just overkill. I mean i would rather get the 250 monos over the 600 as it is just excess. The clayton amps are supposed to be awesome i did forget about them but everytime i see an S-40 come on (I think thats what they are called)... 
Best amp for 5k used? SS or Tube
It would be much more helpful if people say why they like certain amps. For instance i know that accujim always reccomends the lamms whenever a question like this arises but it would be far more helpful if they were compared to amps of a similar c...

I also "own" a plinius SA-250 Mk IV... as it is owned by someone else but it is in my house... so i use it regularly and i dont like it. It has a very cold element to it. It is as solid state like as it gets in my oppinion. It is very clear and ve... 
Considering a pair of Talon Perigrins, any opinion
First of all there are two versions of the Peregrine Xs. The newer one has a vastly better midrange and bass. I myself have owned the first version, the older one, for a year now and it never fails to blow me away. The talon is a very warm subtle ... 
Does the cary audio303/100 havea variable output ?
No... but you can get a really good one installed by cary for 500.00 dollars. Speak to upscale audio about it they have all the info. The 303/200 does have a built in digital volume control tho and the analog is 500.00 extra as well. I hope this i...
