Best Phone Stage for under $1,000.000 So there ya have it. 25 responses, and almost as many choices. | |
All in one Pre/Power/Streaming/DAC or Streaming Preamp/DAC combo ~$2k-4k recommendations Another vote for the Naim Uniti Atom. I would believe it could drive your speakers satisfactorily. It powered a pair of Vandersteen Treo Ct's effortlessly and the sound was glorious. Judging the amp on speakers other than your own isn't a fair tes... | |
MIT Cable Matching All I can say is be careful of using networked cables. The ones with the box on them. I used MIT speaker cables with a pair of B&W 802D's and this worked fine. But when I got a pair of Vandersteens, those cables sounded terrible on them. I rep... | |
Harmonic Tech AC10 vs Audiience PowerChord I borrowed a handful of power cables from The Cable Company. One was the Harmonic Technologies AC-11. It bested all the other cables I tried. $350 New. I found a few of them on Audiogon used for around $125 each. | |

Advice re CD Player upgrade requested Not sure why you dismiss Cambridge, as some of their players will best a lot of the players on your list. IMHO. | |
Vandersteen Treo CT You will be very happy with the Treo CT's. I know this has been said many times about Vandersteen, but proper set-up is extremely important. Most notably the back tilt of them. Your choice of equipment looks pretty good. As Bob said you could expe... | |
Restored Marantz 2275 or Vincent Audio SV 237MK If you were to decide to throw your Marantz away, I will take it.....:-) | |
Marketing slogans to catch the consumers attention This is a newer one. A ad for one of Spendor's narrow (7" wide) tower speakers. Their saying is: "Obviously, we're narrow-minded." Wow...... | |
Does anyone use white gloves to handle records? My turntable came with a pair of white gloves. But not for handling records. They recommended using the gloves when handling the turntable plinth. It has a matte black paint job that will stain (shiny spots) if you get finger print oils on it from... |
