| 2008 RMAF – – – all things analog. I think you have to view something like the Saskia as an artistic statement, unlike similarly priced Wilson speakers which are mass production merchandise, and therefore more appropriate to your BMW analogy. On the other hand, in what way is an id... | |
| Favorite Speakers at RMAF Trelja - Thanks for the assessment. It is consistent with everything else I've read. All comments indicate natural, effortless, dynamic, smooth, etc. I saw a Stereophile blog that put the price at $53K/pair. | |
| Favorite Speakers at RMAF Trelja - I've spoken with Jonathan on the phone and would concur that he's a great guy. If I ever return to N.J. by car, I'll certainly make a point of stopping by New Tripoli for a look. Apparently, from what you've said here, you have good famil... | |

| High end Audio for ladies? Check this out Elizabeth - My comment was not meant to discourage women. I do think the idea is good from a marketing standpoint. Given the economy just now, I stand by my comment about bad timing. The site looks nice. The product selection is too skimpy and the... | |
| High end Audio for ladies? Check this out A good idea - bad timing - poor selection - nice site - no hope. | |
| List : Components with high dynamics You can get reasonable dynamics by selecting upstream products that overcome the inherent limitations of conventional speakers or you can choose horn speakers with compression drivers and use pretty much any amplification that suits your ear. High... | |
| Best way to upgrade from Krell 400xi Try an Onkyo A 9555 integrated. Build quality is nearly identical and it should sound much better. Check the reviews. | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? Lighting your Christmas tree with illuminated vacuum tubes could well qualify you for a Darwin Award. | |
| What is the proper way to dispose of old tubes? A question that has crossed my mind about hazardous materials is this: If the substance in question is mined, then it is found in nature. Why can't we just return it to nature? The only exception I can see would relate to large concentration of ce... |
