certin speaker makers harder to get dissounts fro
Good morning Lush. You make good points. Let me say that two of us (with differing POV's) have used the phrase "sense of entitlement". Both uses are valid. Customers who simply "expect" dollars off are better off using the net and retailers who "e... 
Can anything beat Vintage Amps for the $$$?
For the money, no. I have an upgraded HK 730 Twin as the center of my analog system. I had modern separates. Much of today's modern electronics use digital chips whereby vintage equipment was intelligently designed by engineers, not computer geeks... 
certin speaker makers harder to get dissounts fro
Any intelligent audio consumer shops for price value. Just because someone is fnancially solvent enough to buy 11K speakers doesn't mean it's a smart purchase. Get your tools out and look inside most of the equipment. Very few speakers are hand ma... 
Need Copper Cables for 18ft Runs: Bang for Buck
I have 20ft runs of continuous cast copper 12 ga Vampire Wire. Call Stuart at Sound Connections. Mine are separate red and black cables. Run them parallel or twist them how you want. Stuart put spades on mine but he'll do whatever you want and Vam... 
Joan Baez - Do I just not get it?
Please excuse Ray, it seems he just woke from a nap ;-} DJRD is Joni Mitchell, not Joan Baez. I also don't believe anything on Audiogon is free anymore. I also grew up during the 60's and Joan did have a beautiful singing voice, albeit an acquired... 
Has anyone tried the Synergistic A/C Master Active
Since I don't remember it being any particular "way", I'd have to say natural. It didn't stand out, no extra, noting missing. 
Has anyone tried the Synergistic A/C Master Active
Excellent P/C. Heavy and stiff. Hard to move around in tight spaces. I enjoyed mine. 
What's the best s-video cable on the market today?
The best I've used (and still use) is the Synergistic Research Reference S-video. 
Burned out hi fi salesman
Hit a nerve CS? While I agree to some of what you said, my real disagreement comes with fault. Audiophiles are not the only ones who want it both ways. What's your take on audio salons who complain about internet sales stealing customers while mai... 
what is the best deal you ever got on audiogon
I'm just reading this thread to see if anything I've sold is listed. ;-)) 
The Past 5 years
I'm thinking digital. It has made me re-think music enjoyment and sent me down the analog path of vinyl and vintage. On the HT side though, it has provided much more video enjoyment. 
2 pin power Chords?
I chased down the brand I use. It's an HFT Silver. They only sell the Gold now and it's $149.00. These aer excellent two-pin P/C's. 
2 pin power Chords?
The cable company is where I got mine. I don't remember the brand but it is German-made and extremely well-built. The sound is much better than the stock satelite cable. The cost was very reasonable also. 
Help Alien spores on my vinyl...
Alien spores huh? Maybe a laser gun is the amswer. 
Any issue with 2 different lengths of IC to 2 subs
