| Can you put a Krell in an apartment? Nice terry 9. I saw that movie the other night. It’s on Netflix. Hadn’t seen it in 30 yrs.. it’s so bad it’s good. | |
| Kondo Ongaku needing advise Clean with brasso and apply a clear lacquer. It will take time but not 6500 usd of your time. I did this to an old Sherwood and it turned out beautifully. That’s a great piece and worth the elbow grease. | |
| Best Brands Out of These-Wharfendale,Bowers and Wilkinsons... Awesome. Good on ya mate | |
| Luxman 590axii vs Pass Labs int 60 I think I know which one Erik prefers. Let your ears decide if possible. This is a great comparison as they are both on my short list. Don’t know if either of them can get me away from tubes though. | |
| Klipsch speaker choices Forte 3’s all the way. Great speakers. | |
| Why discussions generate into personal affronts... Ego and the ability to not hear what is being asked. It’s all too familiar these days. | |
| Most annoying song, period. Wildfire. “She ran calling wildfire”! We’ll be riding wildfire! Now I won’t be able to sleep. Thx | |
| Top vintage receivers vs. modern high-end equipment Skip vintage ss and go tube. An old marantz, McIntosh, fisher or sansui tube setup with those paragons would be fantastic. Good luck | |
| Matching Gear matter to you? I think that if I could afford the d’agostino setup I would stick with all his new gear. Just because the stuff is so damn beautiful. Steam punk audio gear at its best. Btw, my stuff is all over the place but it sounds good and is in my budget. | |
| Things that make you go, "Hmmmmm...." I’m a big fan of older rega CD players. The Saturn or Jupiter are built real well, look real cool and sound very good. I dig my Saturn and will never give it up. I run it through my tube dac toslink input and couldn’t be happier. You can get a use... | |
| How much are AR AR3's worth these days? You price them. Get 4 offers for your asking price, then take them off. Pretty low rent. You should’ve sold them for a grand. Always do the research before setting your price. | |
| SIMPLY AMAZING: Coda Technologies 07x Preamplifier I wanted one of their integrateds but they use buttons for volume control which I’ll never use. Put a big volume dial on it and I’ll buy one. I’ve heard great things about the sound. | |
| Confused Musical Presentation As Elizabeth stated so eloquently, I believe it might be a problem associated with your hearing loss. I’m a 35yr carpenter and I suffer from high frequency hearing loss. It gets messy. In crowded areas I can’t always tell what’s being said. I’m n... | |
| Tube life Since that’s a hybrid amp, I don’t feel you’ll notice the signal tubes degrade as much. If it was a complete tube amp, with power tubes, you’d notice a big difference when they degrade. I have an old sansui tube amp. When those 7591 power tubes st... | |
| Your favorite Small Apartment Speakers Diapason adamantes. Music culture rl-21’s. Both spectacular. Still have them both. 2 different listening rooms. |
