| Best TT/Arm/cartridge combo for 3k Used Thanks for all your responses. | |
| What headphones? Ditto plus the ETY's | |

| Is Sony SCD-1 still worth to possess? John 1: where did you hear a tube output stage XA777ES and did you compare it side by side with the modified SCD-1?Also, I was told by Dan Wright that the SCD-1 does not have a true balanced output; only a board that splits the signal at the output. | |

| New TacT speaker system I just found out that the amps needed to drive these speakers aren't ready yet. Each driver has a correction system ? "built in" | |
| New TacT speaker system Anyone? | |

| Confused about DVD-A I've read similar claims regarding the very near SACD sound for the Gamut CD-1 and of course the Audio Aero Capitole 24/192 (with the STARS system) |
