| Cassettes still rock! If you REALLY want to go crazy try looking at prices of genuine Nakamichi tapes on eBay. I have several hundred sealed blank cassettes left over from one of the last stores I owned. A lot of various brands.I was on E-Bay just looking to see wh... | |
| Cassettes still rock! There is a really good documentary on Amazon Prime titled: Cassette: A Documentary Mixtape https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/cassette-a-documentary-mixtape | |
| Cassettes still rock! I've just recently wound my way back to my cassette collection, (I have hundreds and hundreds).I've had a blast listening and doing quite a bit of recording. Glad I kept a bunch of sealed blank tapes.Maybe not the best in reproduction, but what a... | |
| Emotiva not so good I currently have a couple pieces of Emotiva gear and have owned several others. Excellent sound and no problems.Quite nice if you ask me... | |
| Belles research? Anyone here know the real measure power output of the Belles SA-30 ?Belles rates it at 30 watts into 8 ohms and 32 amps of current. So it is probably closer to 45-50 watts and doubles down each time. 45/8, 90/4, 180/2. Just my guess.I've heard ... | |
| Belles research? IMHO, the 150A is a much better amp than the older 250.The 150 came in an "A" version and a HOT ROD version in addition to just the regular 150 original issue. Try to find the "Hot Rod" version if possible. It’s a killer amp. http://www.soundstage... | |

| Beatles on Sunday Back in the early to mid eighties, I hosted a local Saturday morning show from 8AM-10AM called "Breakfast With The Beatles".Did trivia questions for prizes and had a small call-in segment.What a blast that was. | |
| Squashed(?) LRS 60%-70% of the volume you would normally critically listen to them at. Just use a constant volume setting, no need to raise or lower it.Play music. No need for a test or burn-in CD with sweeps. Music works best. | |
| Squashed(?) LRS I've heard they really need 400 hrs for proper breakin. Can anyone confirm this? On the smaller models, 200-300 hours. The larger models, 400-500 hours. | |
| Squashed(?) LRS I could also notice swapping the panels (ribbon tweeter inside vs outside) changed the "shape" of the presentation. In the Maggie community, this is debated almost as much as Analog vs. Digital or Tube vs. Solid State.I have setup well over 100... | |
| Squashed(?) LRS I was a Magnepan dealer for many years. That happens every once in awhile.The cloth just gets stuck to the panel. Play the speaker and it should release after a short time. | |
| Record Store Day 2020 LIst What I've noticed is many of the RSD titles become avalible later anyway. There has always been a section titled "Record Store Day First Release". All of these listed under that banner will be available after RSD sometime.The sections are:RELE... | |
