| Beatles Re-issues on vinyl I love the way they sound, especially vs the standard stereo US Capitol records that are widely available.The Japanese (oh those mono's are nice) and UK pressings are spectacular, but they are extremely expensive and rare now.I really do hope that... | |
| Beatles Re-issues on vinyl Any more word on this? I just got my hands on a MOFI box and I am wondering if the new vinyl would be as good, or hopefully better. | |
| best quiet small speaker, integrated amp - cd You know, check some of the posts by the pro's here. Bongofury always recommends the ATC's which I have heard many times, and loved, but never tried to play them nearfield/softly!!Bongo, where you b? Give this guy some advice. | |
| best quiet small speaker, integrated amp - cd I've heard the powered Audio Engine speakers, and they sound great, for near listening low volume. If that's what you are looking for. The small speakers that Peachtree Audio uses in their demos (sorry can't remember their name) sound excellent at... | |
| Best speakers for about $3500 You know I CES have heard the VMPS at CES several times. That's one of the few places to hear them since they are not a popular brand. They are a nice box, with a ribbon tweeter (or array) that sound nice, have excellent bass extension, and are fa... | |
| Best speakers for about $3500 I still love a good joke. | |
| Best speakers for about $3500 LOL, that's classic. That's the best talking your book post I have ever seen on Audiogon. Next one will be someone talking how their Bose Lifestyle system blows away the Wilson Sashas he just heard.Thanks for the laugh. | |
| Tube Audio Design HIbachi-II amps with Maggie 1.6? My bad, I have actually heard these amps with Vienna Beethoven's and they handled them very well. I didn't read the string correctly. | |
| Tube Audio Design HIbachi-II amps with Maggie 1.6? no flippen way!! do they output over 300 w at 4 ohms? SS amps with Maggies, unless you can pay up for some real tube power like VTL, ARC or a higher powered Rogue.I have had tube amps eaten alive by Maggie 1.6r's when I had them. | |
| Vintage Phono Stage? pros and cons Elizabeth has hit it on the head. I think if you like warm for the slant of your system, then vintage can/is better in general.In fact, I love most of the vintage phono/preamps/recievers I have heard. | |
| Bryston 4Bsst2 or 7Bsst2 and Anthony Gallo 3.1 I'm always a more is more person, but with the Gallos, which I owned some years back, I don't think you need more than the 4Bsst2 to make them sing. And they will sing. I really liked those speakers. | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers Azaud, I forgot to answer your Pappasitos Post. My wife and I actually worked at Pappasitos for about 5 yrs each as waiters, bartenders (college and grad school), then floor managers, kitchen managers, and Asst GM's before were were both hired awa... | |
| Best speakers for about $3500 LOL, no really Dorkwad, did you really just say that your VMPS speakers have more clarity than 3.6r Magnepans???Wow,that's bold, I mean I've heard of talking your book, and I wouldn't argue with that statement regarding the B&W's, another box-... | |
| Best speakers for about $3500 Magnepan 3.6r, with you Pass amplification, it should sound stellar right out of the box. | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? NEVER!!!There, I said it!! |
