| any early 80's alt/soft punk fans out there? Has anyone else bought the vinyl re-issue of The Cult "LOVE"? What a great pressing, of a great album. Excellent production on all the songs with tremendous impact and a fantastic 12" dance mix of "She Sells Sanctuary" one of my favorite songs of ... | |
| Innersound ESL 300 Mark II. An older ARC preamp? I had the Innersound amp, great, great amp. | |
| Pope Holland Tubes for Cary SLP98P Sorry, I should have put this on the question, but my Cary is an F1 to the max. Has a few other upgrades besides the ordinary F1 package.I love the sound now, but I haven't tube rolled the output stage at all yet, and was wondering if the the Pope... | |
| any early 80's alt/soft punk fans out there? The Replacements, you are right. Somehow I always think of them as a 90's band since I continued listening to them all the time through about 99.Great Band."Pleased to Meet Me" I just bought on vinyl again. IOU, The Ledge, Alex Chilton, .... great... | |
| Any experience with Signal Cable for REL sub? Where did you find the Neurtrik Nordost? I don't see that anywhere on the web. | |
| New favorite VINYL Album? I bought one from the Rhino site and waited 4 months, every week getting a note from Rhino that is was on backorder. It never came. Then one day I walk into my local record store, and there is a new Rhino pressing of "Machine Head" on display. I p... | |
| Any experience with Signal Cable for REL sub? I get feedback on my Rel from the high level inputs when everything is off, I can just hear slight hum. I have mono block amps, and had some problems with the setup. Anyone else have those problems? Could another cable, the Signal or Audioquest ma... | |
| New favorite VINYL Album? Deep Purple "Machine Head" sounds better than ever | |
| Your Top 5 Favorite Power Ballads Really a lot of bad music in here. Isn't that the point? I don't think we are talking about our favorite "good" power ballads, right? Any list that includes Bon Jovi and Foriegner "I Want to Know What Love Is" has to suck right? | |
| Harbeth HL5 vs Magnepan 1.6qr Who wins?? I've owned the 1.6's and the more juice I gave them the better they sang, no question. They would not play loudly, whichout nasty clipping on almost any tube amp I threw at them. SS and highpowered. If you go the ARC or Bigger Rogue tube amps that... | |
| Harbeth HL5 vs Magnepan 1.6qr Who wins?? Philjolet makes an excellent point. Maggies as a speaker are relatively cheap, but if you factor in that you need very high quality amplification with them, they are proably about the same price as similarly priced speaker/amp set ups. | |
| Bryston 28 sst's vs Spectron Musician 3 SE ? I have not had the mono blocks, but with my Maggies the Spectron Musician 3se was not a great match. I thought it was bright. I loved my 7bsst Brystons, with my speakers, and have only heard the 28sst's at CES driving the tiny Magenpan/bass module... | |
| Harbeth HL5 vs Magnepan 1.6qr Who wins?? Maggies, I just like them better. But I do like the Harbeths a lot. I think they are expensive but very good. I actually liked the Paradigm Signatures at a dealer, compared to the Harbeth's at about 2/5 the price. | |
| Harmony One Remote ? you need an IR repeater (Xantech makes a good cheap one), and you will need to place the "eye" of the IR repeater out where it can recieve the infrared signal from the remote.You could change to the Harmony 890 which comes with an RF Module then y... | |
