| How many will listen to tape and vinyl in the next century? The end of this Century is a long time off. So, who knows what we will be using at the end of this Century.Remember 8 track players? they sounded pretty good. Then cassette decks, then digital tapes, then CD's, on and on. A really good digital... | |
| Priorities... If it was me, I would only sell the device that I want to replace. if I'm happy with my amps and pre-amp, and wanted to upgrade my speakers, then that and that alone would be what I would be concentrating on.I would slowly save enough money to pu... | |
| Preamp for audio research ref110 if you are in the Los Angeles area, feel free to contact me. I have two Jensen transformer devices that I'm not using that you are welcome to try out before you purchase one.In the interim, it is a very good way to go. I bought them because I w... | |
| CD players that make for a great transport Glad you like the DV-09. I know it doesn't play certain disc. Like SACD, but most others it is fine.Don't forget the BDP-09. Better DACS. beat the Theta gen Va dac and was very close to the Audio Research DAC8 that I own.and don't let anyone fo... | |
| Should I buy a Class A Amp. Many of the responses here are spot on. Ralph's are definitely spot on. And in no way was he touting his products over others. Amp design is formula based. Anyone that has taken amplifier design in college knows this. Design an amp that is nom... | |
| CD players that make for a great transport For the money, one would be hard pressed to beat the Pioneer Elite BDP-09 player. It can be used as a player and as a great transport. It has four internal DACS and I have compared the transport and cd player with many others and with external d... | |
| HESITANT with NEW member sellers It is difficult buying from anyone that you don't know or can't deal with in person vs on line or over the phone.If one can agree on the purchase with the proviso that I must hear it operate before handing over the cash, then that is better. I ha... | |

| Cdp under $ 1k which is great top to bottom Pioneer Elite DV79AVI, Pioneer Elite BDP-09. Excellent internal DACs and wonderful sound. I compared them to external high quality DACS, Theta and Audio Research DAC 8. The DAC8 was better, but not by much over the BDP-09.It loads slow, but tha... | |
| Pop/crack on power up, followed by audible tweeter hiss I don't believe that the noises, pops, etc. on startup are normal at all.I would at the very least contact the manufacturer and find out from them it they believe this is normal or not and start from there.get it checked out.enjoy | |
| Can too many components on one outlet affect the sound of an amp? This is typically the problem with homes or apartments that only have one outlet in the room. I would first suggest getting quotes from qualified electricians to run at least two dedicated circuits (separate hot, neutral and grounds) to the panel... | |
| Question about valves running hours I don't believe the OP was talking about on/off cycling during a particular listening session. But resting the equipment between listening sessions. People are different and have different schedules.I am not retired and work during the day. When... | |
| User manuals yesterday and today as evidence to... I tend to believe that this trend is not to dumb down anything, but to protect the company. In America, it is typical to sue people and companies for just about anything. And, since I have noticed many Judges actually allow lawsuits to go forwar... | |
| The issue of lowballing... What does that mean? "Grow a Pair"??? Since when does rudeness in insulting people become second nature and acceptable?Enough of my bandwagon.First Sellers come in many different types:1. Those that price items at or near current market value and won't accept offers... | |
| klipschorns, they kick ass for sure Very nice speakers. With the right room and system, these like many others will definitely sing. Not many people have dedicated corners, but they still sound wonderful and look great. They are still being manufactured for a reason.Horns are very... |
