| Amp suggestions for $1000 If you would like to try tubes contact Jim Nicholls from JWN amps. He will build you a custom tube amp in your price range, and all his amps accept all the standard PP power tubes and are autobias, and did I mention they sound great as well. | |
| 450 Pound Monobloc Amplifier That's great news! Now all that's missing is some ineffecient multi driver speakers with wicked phase angles to make things complete. | |
| HELP Best speakers btw 1000$ and 3000$. Real tests You should seriously consider this package, for the price it's absolutely unbeatable.

| Who makes the highest quality tube gear? In absolute terms Jim Nicholls amps are tough to beat for the money | |

| Lip balm for CD scratches? I was just curious to see if this off the cuff tip about lip balm actually worked. I did apply some to a previously unlistenable track and while it didn't fill in the entire scratch it is much better now. I noticed the first ingredient in the lip ... | |
| Lip balm for CD scratches? I'm going to try the lip balm in a little while and report back, you try the polyurethane. | |
| It's time for a good CD player. If you can find a Eastsound E-9 somewhere grab it, especially for the prices they are fetching today on the used market. They weigh in at 20+ lbs and are built like tanks. They were all the rave 5-6 years ago with many people comparing them to pla... | |
| Newbie wants tube recommendations Not looking to take a jab here but are you aware this thread is 7 years old? | |
| Looking for a power conditioner/regenerator/filter Is it me or is spending upwards of $3000.00 + for power conditioners that may or may or may not make a difference seem a little overkill?
