| What are the speakers you very rarely find in the Used market(Audiogon or Anywhere)? ugly ones | |
| Amp "timing" ? I hear a difference a little like mapman was referring to. One slight addition from my perspective to add, is for me, speakers do more of that then an amplifier. so my Thiel 2.4’s and 1.2’s and Spica TC60’s have what I perceive as a better timing ... | |
| Just wanted to share that I got a new reviewing gig with Six Moons.com website Nice Teajay | |
| Differences between cd transports? I think, if like 2 yrs ago at RMAF when Geoff beamed himself down to Earth that weekend. He may even do that this year at the new place. So you may not have to get a ticket to space to go see him. | |

| $100k spent on music and $20k on the equipment or the other way around or 50/50 ? 50 to 800 ratio for me. I have closer to 50 pieces of equipment and 800 albums of music. Is that good? The musics value is priceless and I tell the equipment 'you can be replaced'. | |
| Thiel Owners I have heard the Revel F208’s in a Listen Up show room. Not a bad showroom, actually a good one. I have the 2.4’s at home. The Revels seemed kind of dull or uninspiring. Now when I have listened to speakers at a dealers showroom, the ones I liked ... | |

I am now, but it took about three years after I replaced some very old stuff, and one thing leads to replacing another and so on. Now at about a year with magic dialed in my system. I think is is great fun to ... | |
