| Was just Listening to Dan Fogelberg... I recently picked up a mint copy of "The Innocent Age", which is a 2-LP record set. Simply brilliant. Both LPs include great music but Side Two of Disc One brings back the memories:(1) Lost In The Sun(2) Run For the Roses(3) Leader of the Band(4) ... | |
| Hypothetical - CD or SACD Player? If your budget tops out at $2000, and IF you can run a CD player balanced in your system, then purchase a used Ayre CX7e (be sure to get an "evolution" model). You will not miss SACD (in the sub-$2000 players). For the money in the used market, th... | |
| VTL 450 6550 or KT88 tubes You might want to change the title of your post to "VTL MB-450". If anyone is doing a search, they may not be drawn to your post based on its current title. | |
| ProAc budget level S.S. or Digital amp synergy? A while back, I heard a pair of ProAc 2.5s driven by Ayre gear and the sound was exceptional. I had personal success driving a pair of ProAc Tablette 50 Sigs as well as a pair ProAc D15s with a simple Ayre integrated. I would not classify the Ayre... | |
| Wilson owners Call of Duty Hi Khyrs,No problem here, your opinion is valued, and I appreciate your advice in the post above. Thank you for taking the time to respond. Transparent cables have a stellar reputation but are likely out of my current budgeting strategy.Due to fin... | |
| Wilson owners Call of Duty I own Wilson Audio Sophia Series 2 and began an audition of Purist Audio speaker cable and interconnects this evening, courtesy of a wonderful audiogon member and Purist Audio dealer, Albert Porter (a personal friend of mine...for over 30 years). ... | |
| MultiChannel too complicated for most... To answer your question, I simply dislike multichannel. I enjoyed the newness of the experience in a home built in 1992 (and sold in 1999) but quickly grew tired of multichannel music and movies. It has nothing to do with simplicity; it has to do ... | |
| LammLP2 vs. Arc PH_7 Jake, I am puzzled about your latest post. I thought you were moving to a Wilson turntable? It appears that our discussions may have been premature? Please email me to clarify before I put much effort into our prior discussions.Thank you. | |
| Sophia 2 against a wall, with Meridian processor? You might consider calling Wilson Audio and ask their opinion. They are very particular about the placement of their speakers in owner's homes for optimal enjoyment. | |
| Greatest C&W Band The Stones definitely have Country and Western influences, but IMHO the blues run much deeper for them. However, based on your criteria, "Sweet Virginia" would probably be my favorite also. Not only for the tune but in honor of my aunt (my Dad's o... | |

| Balanced xlr or rca for Ayre C5xe Kevinmcd,This is a first, in ownership, demos, and research of Ayre equipment. I have NEVER read an individual state that they prefer RCA over XLR, if the equipment was setup correctly and the equipment was synergistic.Maybe the AudioQuest was the... | |
| Opinions on Audio Research LS17 & LS26 The best recommendation that I can offer in order to understand the difference between a LS25MKII and a LS26: demo both pieces of gear in your own environment. Just as soon as I offer one attribute of one piece of equipment over the other, someone... |
