| Where to buy CD's Highly recommend Amazon. Use the private venders on Amazon for great deals on used CDs. I always buy "Like New" and have never had a problem disk. I agree that the vender must have a rating of 97 to 100% positive feedback. | |
| What to connect with my system? If you indicate your budget, I'm sure other members will have advice for u. | |
| Advice on Equipment Upgrade Why start experimenting with ICs when the pre and amp impedance are obviously not a match? Tls49 and others have directed you to the most likely problem. | |
| I can't handle digital after analog light my fire "The engineering and mastering of the particular recording is by far the most significant variable, IMO, followed by the quality of the particular playback equipment."Definitely true, Almarg. I just received my first Chesky CD and it sounds so nat... | |

| Advice on Equipment Upgrade Rogue and Conrad Johnson preamps have low output impedance that might match well with your 20kOhm amp input. (Rogue has 450 Ohm output). You should also check on the specs of a BAT preamp. | |
| Admiral Television? That's a good find, Loomisjohnson. I now agree that the "Admiral" is someone under contract by a different label. I really thought that it was Todd because he was so advanced with the technology and engineering, so why not use a pseudonym relating... | |
| Admiral Television? This is interesting. Maybe you can tweet Todd Rundgren? | |
| what else do i need to improve sonic performance? I agree with Philjolet. Just one word of advice...components with a low current draw such as a preamp do not need the heaviest gauge PCs.For example, Pangea sells the AC-9 for amps and the AC-14 for preamps, CDPs, etc. I also suggest you research ... | |
| Advice on Equipment Upgrade Yeah, you have a small room, but I think your phono preamp is a weak link...Upgrade. As far as the small size of the room, why not turn off the subwoofer for a while and see how things sound. I think the sub should be out of the system while you'r... | |
| Admiral Television? Martykl ...sounds like your not giving up on this. | |
