| AUDIO PRICE INSANITY PRICE VS. PERFORMANCE WORTH IT? With right around 6k-15k used well and covering the whole system, a person should easily be able to blow away an audio trade show presentation. It's all about the method of listening used. Michael Greenwww.michaelgreenaudio.net | |

| High End is Dead? Yep I believe we were part of the greatest HEA generation, and what fun it was! The camaraderie was genuine. I remember Frank Doris took me over to Harry’s place (early 90’s) and set me loose. The place had all my acoustical treatment and the rack... | |

| The Method of Tuning Hi AdrianLet me know if I can be of help. I’ve got a few rooms on the drawing board for this summer, but there’s always room for more.One thing to keep in mind while looking at "The MGA Way" is that I don’t dampen the sound but restore it. When I ... | |
| What's Your Take on This ? Some great amps are being mentioned on this thread. I still pick up some of these to tune with. On the B&K ST140, if you were lucky enough to get Steve’s design of the amp (first 6 months of production) you will see why people said it was one ... | |

| Have you ever hated the sound of your system one day, and loved it the next? If I may let me ask you guys a question. Why is it that so many HEA hobbyist don't know, or understand, that this is a variable science?This is something that has puzzled me since the magazines went to component selling and moved away from adjusti... | |

| The Method of Tuning Hi MikeI just watched Mark’s video and my take away was somewhat different from yours, but that’s ok. From what I saw him saying, red book CD has more than enough info to tune. The other comment I would make about Mark’s video is he doesn’t tune h... | |
