help on picking new old processor please...
MC4 is a good unit. I used one for several years until one day it just didn't turn on. Still looks like new in the original box with original manual and accessories. Be happy to send it to you for the cost of shipping, if you want it for spare par... 
Who is the WORST Audio Shop?
Mr T. to each their own. I'd rather know if the probability is favorable that I'm going to get screwed before I deal with someone. 
Isolation Platform from Timber Nation
Always had a good experience. I own 6 of his platforms. 
B&K Ref. 30 Problem
Imhififan, yes I have.Thanks again Loomis. 
B&K Ref. 30 Problem
Loomis, I'll send you a case of Good Humor's (choice of flavor) if you solve this for me :-). Your understanding of my problem is exactly right. Also, already tried "thx", still no center info:.Regarding the workarounds:Already thought about addin... 
B&K Ref. 30 Problem
Loomis, also:2.1 Get center channel info. through front L&R this way. Also get center channel info. through front L&R when I listen through digital connection in stereo. 
B&K Ref. 30 Problem
Loomis, here goes:1. Get sound through front and surrounds both;2. For Fios through digital using surround. For BD through 5.1 analog using dvd audio;3. No but does not matter what input I connect to DVD, TV, SAT, etc., I still do not get center i... 
B&K Ref. 30 Problem
Noble, thanks again. My only problem is through the digital inputs. When I hook-up BD through the analog inputs, the 5.1 center channel information comes through the front L&R speakers loud and clear.Loomis, you mention somethings I haven't th... 
B&K Ref. 30 Problem
Thanks Noble. Center is already set to "None" in an attempt to generate the phantom center. That's my dilemma. Still will not process the center information to the Front left and right speakers. 
Who is the WORST Audio Shop?
Have to agree about the attitude @ Sunny's. Called them earlier this year to purchase (used) speakers. Unsolicited the Owner proceeded to tell me that the speaker Mfg. was a whore because he sold direct and he just "wanted to get rid" of them. The... 
Amp for Merlin VSM
Sorry, meant to say Premier 12xs. Premier 16 is my preamp. Again very nice combo and goes very nicely with the Merlins. 
Amp for Merlin VSM
I have the latest TSM's (Master). I also have an earlier iteration of the TSM's. The Merlins are very transparent and can be a little "crisp" to some including me. I've listened to the VSM's with the RM9. I also owned the RM10's for a while, which... 
CJ CT-5 vs. CT-6
I owned the CT-6 and listened to the CT-5 quite extensively when I was thinking of upgrading. No comparison between the two IMO. The CT-5 is much more refined, with more extension at both ends, particularly the bass, again IMO. But unless your loo... 
Why my left speaker sounds louder then my right
Don't torture yourself until you're sure it's not your hearing. I had a very similar problem. It was my hearing. 
Gingko or Symposium Ultra Platform??
Interesting question. I have a Gingko under my TT now, but have been considering Symposium. Have not noticed any "shaking" of the tonearm, but I also would be very interested in hearing from other people who have compared the two.
