| Tinnitus - do you have ringing in the ears? Well, well, Pbb doesn't blame this malady on G.W. Bush and the USA? It's nice to know we aren't responsible for every ill effect that plagues the planet. | |
| Hasselblad 503CW or Bronica SQ-Ai I love the Hasselblad glass and, of course, they are extremely durable. But, the Bronica is way more user friendly. IMHO. | |
| Question about CD recorders A pro recorder is hard drive based allowing you to break information into tracks before burning. This is important if you are recording vinyl to CD. As such, they will burn generic blank disks saving you money versus the music CDR's. The pro recor... | |
| Genki CDR Playback For the year I owned a Genki I had no problems with CDR's. I just used the cheap bulk ones that ran about a dime apiece. I bought some blank CD's that had heavy graphics on the topside and began to have problems. I suspect it was a balance issue w... | |
| Expressimo Audio "the LIFT" ....doesn't Have you tried mounting it further from the tonearm pivot for increased leverage? | |
| "Trickle up" theory Twl deserves a big thanks for his post. In part, his references to his Berning amps (Micro ZTOL & Holy Grail) were influential in Vetterone's purchase of the ZH270's. He also speaks wisely about crossover free drivers.Regarding the Supratek li... | |
| "Trickle up" theory If I listen to a state of the art system and my toe doesn't start tapping and my knee beebopping, I know something is wrong. This was a common occurance in years past at high end showrooms. Today, I experience this less and less. Of course, it is ... | |
| Audiophiles & music-have you got it wrong? Ben,I'm definitely a music lover although I wish I could afford to be more of an audiophile. Case in point: I have so much vinyl software that storage and organization is overwhelming my music room. I've been wanting to buy a certain new preamp bu... | |
| Home audio drivers vs. car audio drivers Slappy,Car audio isn't designed for anything that resembles flat frequency response. All listening is nearfield. The amps used in car audio are, for the most part, junk compared to home audio amps. There is perhaps 50 cubic foot of volume in the a... | |
| Boise, Idaho Nrchy,I'd love to meet you any time you are in the area. Dinner and tunes are on me.Chilly,I got an invite to attend this months meeting at Ron's house. I thoroughly enjoyed myself! Wow, there are over 40 members of this club and it's been in exis... | |
| Upgrading my Linn set up HELP advice please Joolz,You need a TUBE preamp. Seriously. I own a Wakonda and like I said before, it's okay. Sonically, the Linn preamps haven't come far since the days of the LK1. What they are now is feature rich. If you want to whole-house your system then the ... | |
| Upgrading my Linn set up HELP advice please Joolz,One last thought on all this stuff. If your current CDP is 24 bit then I would recommend keeping it for awhile. My reasoning is sound. The difference between a Genki and Ikemi is very small in the scope of things. For that matter a $150 DVD ... | |
| Upgrading my Linn set up HELP advice please Joolz,I'm not an expert in all things Linn but I know you can get a tunebox which the Aktiv cards go in and use any amplifiers you want. Might be hard to find one for the Tukans used. You may want to contact Linn helpline and ask if there are card... | |
| Teres update Very nice job. You should be proud. | |
| Upgrading my Linn set up HELP advice please The Syrah also has a phono stage. One without is about $500 less. One of the better attributes of Supratek is the bottom end. I simply could not believe the depth, detail and slam in the bottom end. It really lets the amps show just how good they ... |
