| Audio as a hobby As I said in my last post, my other hobby is scuba diving.When I am not working, or sitting in front of the stereo, I can usually be found underwater.Diving has allowed me to travel the world, and gives me a lot of things to dream about, when I li... | |
| Where does your user name come from? My other hobby that gets the rest of my money, that doesn't go for stereo equipment, is scuba diving.Hence, Mike1diver. | |
| Best CD player directly to Amp? Where's all the Wadia fans? I am surprised that no one has mentioned any of the Wadia players. I have used the Wadia 860, and now have an 861. Both are excellent cd players, if you want to skip a preamp. Plus the Wadias can be adjusted, individual... | |

| Comments on Mark Levinson's 380 & 380s used. I have owned a Mark Levinson 380 for several years. I have used it with a 332, and also with two 332's biamped. I am using it now with a set of Levinson 33H monoblocks, and a Wadia 861 cd player. It is a great preamp, that I could highly recommend... | |
| Best Blues Rock recommendations? Sorry there Funjindemon. I was reading this thread late last night, and I guess that I missed your choice of "Dose". I also agree with your choice of Jimi Hendrix "Blues".Have you listened to two of the latest Government Mule cds?"Life before Insa... | |
| Best Blues Rock recommendations? Warren Hanynes and Government Mule and the Derek Truks Band. I am very surprised that no one has recommended Warren Haynes, and Government Mule. Warren Haynes is behind some of the greatest slide and blues riffs that the Allman Brothers band has e... | |
| Are "Used" Revel Studios worth the money?? Depending on the amount of money you are talking about, pre-owned Revel Studios, in my opinion, are definitely worth the money.I own a set of Revel Studios, that I bought here on Audiogon. I upgraded from the F30's, which are also a good buy.The S... | |

| Any Levinson owners/critics out there? Brian,I have been a proud owner of Levinson equipment, for many, many years. I am currently using a 380 preamp, because I play a lot of vinyl, and 33h monoblocks, through a set of Revel Studios. My previous system consisted of two Levinson 332 amp... | |
| Is there a turntable book? Check with the guys at www.needledoctor.com. They may know of a book like you are looking for. Although, most of the products and tools that you would buy for setting up a turntable and cleaning lps are gonna have that info.Don't think that you ar... | |
| How long is too long to ship? I have had good luck contacting Audiogon and getting them involved.I had the same problem with a fellow who was supposed to ship me a cable. After it didn't arrive after several emails, I got Audiogon to drop him a line, and the cable showed up th... |
