Any body have experience with OPPO BDP-80? Mceljo,Also, if and when monies become available, JT of Exemplar can make your Oppo the 'Best Sounding Digital in the World'...at least the best that I've personally heard.It's true. For $2500. Exemplar rips out the lesser parts in the audio secti... | |
Experienced audiophiles best speaker Blindjim,Why do I always wait to see what you'll post? You're a damn genius, that's why!Larry | |
arcam a38 vs nad m3 Arcam makes a terrific product. Very understated--my favorite amp in my early audiophile days was the legendary A-60. Since I owned a receiver--the family 'sound' was in tact, unchanged after all these years, except for improved resolution.Go for ... | |
If money were no object, what would be in your rig TBG,Have you actually heard Exemplar's Oppo conversion?A good friend received his just the other day and, in accordance with all known 'rules of audio' we listened to it right out of the box...still a little cool to the touch.I owned Exemplar's De... | |
Thiel 3.7 I read with great amusement, the explanation of 'how much power', on the Magneplanar site. It's virtually what it was, when I was a dealer, almost 30 years ago, and still VERY conservative in it's language.Back then, 1983--Jim Winey told me at the... | |
What songs do you never get tired of? Charles Aznabour's 'Yesterday When I Was Young'...on youtube...singing in English, with his somewhat thick French accent. He wrote the song, though most people think that Roy Clark wrote it, as he had a major hit with this one many years ago.Aznav... | |
LSA1 modified vs Silverline sr 11 / ERA D5 What is the nature of the modification?Larry | |
Electrostatic versus conventional speakers Many things have changed in audio since 1988--not the least of which is the dynamic potential that one gets from 'todays' electrostatics. Twenty two years ago--electrostatics were VERY inefficient, lacked bass and offered limited dynamics when com... | |
Strings Dilemma Marakanetz,Have you not purchased this 'brand' of strings previously?Maybe these strings just plainly do suck.As an Alto Sax player, I would get reccommendations about reeds and mouthpieces, 'wonderful' etc. only to discover that they were not up ... | |
What songs do you never get tired of? I know it's not cool in some circles to mention country music...but there are two songs I love--and with the memories they conjure up--they'll live in me forever.Whiskey Lullaby by Brad Paisley...there's a story behind the song, that is so poignan... | |
Soundlab owners - room placement question Notice that no one dares contadict the Dukester?Cause he knows.Larry | |
Best lines in a song "Our love is easy, like water rushing over stones". Melody Gardot...gosh, what an album.Larry | |
Best 6DJ8 tubes? As to 'best'...again, a quick story.A previous customer, from 1985, called and wanted to hear the LSA system--that is the LSA Statement amp and LSA2 speakers. Other than the room being 'ugly', I had set the speakers up carefully, yada, yada, and w... | |
Best 6DJ8 tubes? No G, I have not...and as is the case, most things audio, it's controversial. No one (too broad) very few deny that certain tools last longer, and that there's a molecular shift in products that have been cryo'd, but many technically oriented (not... | |
Best 6DJ8 tubes? Yes,And, variable...of course too many factors to be certain as to why.Again, cryo'd ?Larry |
