| What was your first 'hi-end' system? 1977- Tannoy Cheviots, Technics sl 1700, Ortofon m20 super E, Yamaha cr 1020, and the most expensive lamp cord I could buy. Very musical, simple and fun as all get out. | |
| Sexiest Speakers I don't know about you guys but when somebody thinks a speaker is sexy I think they have a little to many of a certain hormone. I hope this stops at speakers. If not I am sure it will go to talking about sexy vacuums, dogs and phones. Boring! | |
| What do you void listening? most country, rap, and techno. Rap sounds like somebody is very unhappy with a broom stick you know where, techno gives me a headache, and country starts to make me depressed. I should put them all in a blender and see what comes out. That might b... | |
| Help me buy my next DAC Hi KrelldogI have the Sim Audio Moon 100D. I probably won't be much help. I think it is a fantastic dac. I have compared it to the Sim Audio Moon 300D V2 with about 200 hours on it, which is a really great dac. Also with a NAD M51 with about 150 h... | |
| High Fidelity Cables CT-1designed by Rick Schultz Well said CharlesA high quality product is a high quality product no matter what else is out there in the endless universe of products. Enjoy IT if that is what you have and don't worry about what you do not have. You won't be as happy. Be happy. ... | |
| seeking compatible amp/ CJ pv10, Vienna Acoustic I also own those speakers. I agree with the posts. The Vienna Mozart Grand really benefits from reasonably high current(doubling its power from 8ohms to 4ohms) ss amp power and a good power cord to control the speaker. I use a Belles Reference 150... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I have really enjoyed the commentary. Enjoyed the musical suggestions. May it continue. | |
| Why aren't new vacuum tubes as good as old ones? No Wolf. I think they sound good to you because of those bungee cords you connect everything with. And maybe you aren't completely insane it could be cabin fever with all that cold weather. Keep your chin up. | |
| Has education expanded your listening tastes? Before my experience in England I had heard Handels Water Music many times but never really enjoyed it. It was to frilly for me. However when I was in London and went into a record store and asked what local music he would recommend(those are my s... | |
| Why aren't new vacuum tubes as good as old ones? I hope Atmasphere is right. The man over a Vintage Tube Services in Mich. told me it is an human craft. Like Ebm says. You da man Ebm. Anyway he told me the extent they went to to produce good ones. And that to bring new tubes to the level of the ... | |
| 3 speaker cable options - what to choose? Hello BehemotThose of us that have had those cables you want to know about can tell you how they fit into their systems. But to really give you more help we would need to know your equipment you will be using it with and what you are trying to acc... | |
| Speaker cable made you say: I was looking for a natural presentation with a flat tonal balance for SC's. In other words a cable that has as much as I can get musical texture/body and no highlighting of anything. I got a recommendation from a member here, 'Stanwal'. He was a ... | |
| "Slam"--what is it, is it really accurate? Slam is when you have a speaker on stands and your grandchild runs a football route into one of your speakers and it gets knock up against a wall like body check in hockey. It is very accurate and I hope it never happens again. | |
| What about the Belles SA-100? Hi PhusisI mentioned that because I have seen a few 150v2's for sale on the 'Gon here, sellers said they had for only a year or less and said their amp sounded fantastic(I think that is what sellers usually say isn't it?). I wonder if they heard i... | |
| What about the Belles SA-100? I agree. Thanks Noortje. |
