Theta data basic II transport? It is obviouse that for its performance used Theta has an increadibly low price (??)May be there were too many units made and depreciation is higher than in other transports?Right now I do believe that in $400 range you will not find a better one. | |

Who does POWER CORD modifications?? I'm in the process of cutting the chasis of VTL Deluxe 100 with diamond dust coated saw in order to mount IEC plug. I will use Marnico plugs. I know it's going to take a bunch of time like eating a big bowl of soup with the teaspoon. | |

A question concerning ethics I feel that it's already taking a place on Audiogon. We can clearly see sometimes dealers and manufacturers taking part in our discussions and in most cases it does make sence. Very often we ask dealers to help with decision since we can borrow co... | |
I've discovered an alternate way . Wow! That's something new for me that some states prohibit listening to some music and/or playing certain musical instruments. Is it in compliance with 1st ammendment? Is there some more unnecessary state lows? If this is real about accordeon proh... | |
I've discovered an alternate way . Dekay: R U serious? Or it seems to me that I didn't dig all the US idioms?Besides, If you've ever done it with any other instrument, it's OK. | |
Audio Research PH-2 Phono Stage I've got AR PH3(6692 output) used for $900. It is very hard for anyone to say what is better in this price range than AR PH3. There is a large possibility to upgrade it to PH3SE by buying just only parts and requesting an upgrade sketch and sequen... |
