| Capital Audio Fest 2018--show report I've been eyeing Salks since I heard them here last year when they auditioned the Song 3 with ribbon tweeter. Wish they had brought a set this year, may have pulled the trigger. I asked Jim to think about putting the Encore midrange in the Beat ca... | |
| Does It have to be loud? When I'm tired I generally listen at lower volume. When I want to "live the music" then I turn up until I find the "sweet or bloom spot"..........where the music comes out of the speakers and forms a sound stage. Every system has a sweet spot. You... | |
| The ups and downs of tube vs. SS... I've been a pro musician for over 40 years. Played many tube & solid state amps and own both types of stereos. I've learned that everyone hears things a little different. One person thinks their gears sounds the best the other person says, hmm... | |
| Has anyone used Supra AC connectors ??? Bought 3 Supra 2.5 LoRad power cables for my Conrad J. Was trying to save some money over the expensive cables. They cost me around $80-$90 each. My local audio expert got me a Straightwire Blue Thunder $180 each but the detail was well worth doub... | |
| Owners of a Conrad-Johnson MF-2550se Power Amp - Please post your thoughts Bought mine a year ago (not the SE model). I use CJ Classic 2 pre amp. Very happy with the 2550. The depth of the lower mids & bass are intoxicating! When I want to enjoy CJ tube I switch over to a Classic 60SE - another thing of beauty! | |

| KEF 104/2 rebuild Bob - any update on your 104 makeover? I have 2 pair. I sent all the speakers from pair one back to KEF to be checked & repaired if necessary.....they sound great. Didn't touch the crossovers. I recently bought a second pair which had had the ... | |
| Best produced rock albums......... Is it me or does Good Vibrations have poor editing.....seems like there are some abrupt splices of parts? | |
| Best produced rock albums......... Chicago Transit Authority! & Chicago II - only a master could bring all those instruments into a beautiful soundscape - everything is perfectly place. Although I love the Black Crows I find an annoying amount of treble and a lack of sweet mids... | |
| Best produced rock albums......... dgarretson - I've heard about 1/2 of those recordings...............I'll have to check out the other half! BTW - Gyns book was quite an interesting read......especially his recounting his time on the road with the Stones. Thank you, cheers. |
