| Is HDCD dead? The 15 or so that I have all sound better than standard rbon any of the non HDCD players that I have had. To me they are similar to a remastered rb.I think all cd will go the way of cassette; eventually. | |
| Chesky Records & poor sevice, I work in the financial industry & unless things have changed in the last couple of months;...Call mastercard back again & file a claim. Even if Cheskydoesn't come thru, MC will eat the $50 and credit your account. | |
| anyone mention tull? Some of the most unique and best rock from 68 thru the late 70's, they still find thier way into my player on occasion. Loved thier early blues based work & Thick as a Brick still captures me.Sonics on the 1st 3 or 4 cd's is not very good. Are... | |
| Placette The RVC is a revealation in my budget system, everything that I read in the reviews is true. Neutral and transparent,extremely faithful to source and the other gear.Being passive, the soundfield is slightly recessed(which I prefer) and maybe a lit... | |
| best sub $1000 amp to mate with tube preamp Dave, I went thru this process about a year ago when I had to drastically downsize, selling off some very nice Wolcott tube amps and left with a budget of $1500. Like you, I posted here ,got several good sugestions, spent the better part of 2 days... | |
| best sub $1000 amp to mate with tube preamp Look into a used Van Alstine 450ex or 550ex. | |

I kept it for the sacd and extended back groung play time, also I always liked it. Enough audiophile qualities and a warm presenta... | |
| Anyone else tried the GrungeBuster 2.2 CD Mats ? Seems to have a small but noticeable clarity effect on many clear cd's. When used with most opaque or solid color cd's there seems to be no difference. It does take a moment of patience to put it on the cd. I still use it on some cd's. It's worth ... | |
| Best rock song of all times and every day it would probably change! | |
| Von scheikert VR4jr what are you using ? Shame that you don't have a larger room, as they really open up when moved out from the wall. I suggest that you use some type of sound absoption panel behind each speaker against the wall. Sick some large couch pillows there & it will give yo... | |
| Thiels or Von Schweikerts Both are excellent speakers, but have to agree w/ mjaudio, the Thiels are system sensitive. I'd do a search in members system's to see which amps & cabling synergize w/ the Thiels. I've owned the vr4jr's for over a year and can highly recommen... |
