| A litlle help for choice of speakers up to €5500 (used or new) Plutos, wow, that would be horrible of course! The one link that advertised the Sophia 2's on a site in the UK for 5,500 GBP (6200 EUR) looks potentially very good. The seller is in France, which is a reasonable road trip from Portugal if the de... | |
| A litlle help for choice of speakers up to €5500 (used or new) Miguel, I did a little searching, perhaps something may be of interest here.

| A litlle help for choice of speakers up to €5500 (used or new) If you get lucky, you can purchase a 2nd hand pair of Wilson Audio Sophia series 2 for your target price. I have an audiophile friend in Lisbon, and a serious audio enthusiast in Porto. Imacoustica is a great resource of course, but I am not awar... | |

| Why does unplugging/replugging TT leads from tube phono pre-amp reset dead channel? Maybe there is a member of our group in your area who would be willing to allow you to connect your phono preamp to their system and rule out that possibility | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados For me, a part time classical lover, I'll never forget one of the first pieces that I was introduced to as a young boy. I must have been 7 or 8 years old, and a family friend use to play Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto in D Major for me on his turn... | |
| Why does unplugging/replugging TT leads from tube phono pre-amp reset dead channel? Call victor, the chief over at BAT. I used to have BAT power amp. I had a service question and he was easily accessible and very helpful. You can’t beat that! | |
| Making the audiophile experience more available Erik, I’ll bite... what do you mean? | |
| Making the audiophile experience more available asp307, if you ever have long computer sessions, I would highly recommend a small amp at your computer desk. I am a photographer, so during photo shoot edits, music is wonderful. | |
| Leather couch, leather love seat or single wooden chair I vote for the 3 seater. This way you get the sweet spot for solo sessions, and get 1 or 2 companions for group sessions.as awesome as a lone Herman Miller chair may be, it is a lonely thing. Perhaps 3 Herman Miller chairs! | |
| Newbie here with a cable question It looks like you’ll two pairs of interconnect, Possibly a phono cable if you don’t already have one, and one pair of speaker cables. Do you have a price range in mind of what you are comfortable spending on those 3-4 pairs of cables? If you want... | |
