| When To Re-tube ARC REF? Non musical noise frequently heard when warming up is one indicator. Drop out, is another, simply non functioning lack of sound or low sound and the worst of all an electrical short or massive failure.The spectacular shorting or "arcing" failure, ... | |
| Integrated Amp With Tone Controls and Tape Inputs I have to agree with the McIntosh amp to Klipsch speakers. I own a very small early Mc SS amp MC2505 IIRC, and have Heresys and Lascalas. They are a great synergistic match. I don't think that amp has the tone controls etc., but I see early Mc rec... | |
| oppo 105d mod or look for a new cd player ? I personally think the industry pulled a fast one on us with the idea of using stand alone dacs. One of the elements that you were comparing when buying a CD player was how good the DAC Chip was in it. I hold on to the old fashioned idea that the ... | |
| 2 Channel In Ceiling System I have to agree with the first two comments. In ceiling is not really fundamentally compatible with the physics of really good sounding stereo systems as most of us have come to understand what a good stereo is. Why do you want the speakers pointe... | |
| Parasound A21 or Bryston 4BSST2? I think if you want the kind of sound typical of a tube amp, you should buy a tube amp. | |
| Why are so many people trying to sell Harbeths? Well- just for balance I agree with Missioncoonery I don't plan on buying Harbeths, I don't care for them. That said I am not listing any. | |

| Better than the Project Carbon TT for $ 500.00 I didn't understand your issue with black. Is it an offensive color? Is black the epitome of bad taste or ???I agree with the others -- 18 albums, just get out of analog it's more trouble, than worth at this point. | |
| whats the best amp for klipsch lascala 2? Alnico, you certainly dug deep-- back 6 years ago. I think you are right re McIntosh, but really low wattage never gets the woofer moving. Without the power the sound is all midrange from that huge squawker. | |
| Which 211 tubes for my Wyetech Topaz I had heard that the RCA was superior in may ways but may not even be available at any price. Sounds like the GE is the OS tube to look for. I haven't heard much about current production, glad to see someone was familiar with them. | |
| Which 211 tubes for my Wyetech Topaz Which NOS or OS can you get? Which current production is currently available? | |
| Why Listen To FM Radio For Music Anymore At Home? Essentially what the others have posted. I would like to hear more of the latest music. I really haven't tried streaming new talent, I usually give in to my old favorites , but on occasion they sneak something in. I have become addicted to radio n... | |
| The best CD Player for the money Ironically after a brutal divorce I am left with the cd player I wrote about 10 years ago, the Music Hall MMF25 1st edition. I hold out some hope that my ex who never uses my old gear (except a secondary one rarely). For now I have some very good ... | |
| marantz 2250 I had a big Luxman receiver a few years ago. I don't have any technical information for you but Luxman was a luxury product occupying that slice of the market for upscale receivers. The sound is warm, rich and powerful. I would think the L3 would ... | |
| Best amplifier for klipsch heresy 3 speakers. I kid you not, the best synergy between my original Klipsch Heresies and amp, was to use a McIntosh amp. This is not my opinion alone. The combination has been extoled for decades and my experience was no different. If you insist on using a tube a... |
