| Reel to Reel decks I owned a reel to reel machine 35 years ago. I loved it. I kept it for about ten years. I never bought any pre-recorded tapes. The only tapes that I played on my machine were my LP's that I recorded to tape. When I went to record stores in the mid... | |
| pass lab owners: can i afford one? When I first got my Pass amps, I left them on all the time. The bill promptly went through the roof. When not in use now, I promptly turn them off. Waaay too expensive to leave on all the time. | |
| Sunfire TGA 7400 versus Krell FPB 600 .I have Infinity Kappa 9 speakers and have driven them in a biamp configuration with two Sunfire Signature stereo amps. The Sunfire Signature amps are much more powerful per channel at 4 ohms than the TGA 7400. The Kappa 9 will dip below 1 ohm and... | |

| Todays new vinyl LP's better than LP's 40 yrs ago? .My memory must be going. I just checked and it seems that I posted this same exact thread in 2006.

| Pass amps + Power Cords ?? The stock cords sounded just fine to me in my original setup. When I moved my system, the stock cords were not long enough for the new placement. I purchased longer power cords from Signal Cable and they sound great. | |
| Mods for ARC preamp / amp .A few years back, someone posted the statement that "we're all as crazy as we can afford to be". I think it certainly applies when it comes to modding a $12k preamp. I certainly wouldn't do it....because I can't afford it. But who knows? If I had... |
