| Joule Electra OPS-1 or 2 MkIII As a matter of fact, just needed to have the LA150 repaired two years after the upgrade. Jud took care of me and it is now working fine again. Comparing the two (which is tough, because obviously can't do it side by side), I would say the LA 150 i... | |
| Joule Electra OPS-1 or 2 MkIII I have a LA 150 and OPS-1 MV, upgraded a couple of years ago from LA100 III and OPS-1 III respectively. Separate power supply for the phono stage. There is slight noise only detectable at very low levels in the high gain seting using a Benz Wood M... | |
| Best arm for a Nottingham Spacedeck? I have a spacedeck with the OL silver arm. I upgraded from the standard RB300, and never tried the spacearm, so can't compare with that. You don't need a VTA adjuster with the Rega pod on the spacedeck as VTA is adjustable with the collet screw. I... | |
| Train "Drops of Jupiter" bad recording? Get the SACD. It's been out for a while | |
| Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase In our house, we have a "don't ask, don't tell" policy. I don't discuss my audio purchases and she doesn't discuss her clothing/handbag/shoe/house decorating purchases. | |
| odyssey amp's how do they compare to others I seem to remember a review in The Absolute Sound last year where they compared the Stratos to similarly priced amps from Rotel and B&K. I think they liked all of them for different reasons and I don't remember any one being a strong front run... | |
| Has anyone seen failures of Theil 1.5 A few years ago, one of the drivers in my 9 year old Theil 1.2 went bad. The Company replaced the drivers in both speakers at no charge (including shipping both ways from the dealer). | |

| Alignment Protractors I second the wallytractor. Very straightforward to use. Under $100. | |
| Morrison Elad, Some opinions Please. Kelly,As a middle aged (Boy, I hate to admit that) dentist in Florida, I have no reason to "shill" for Morrison-a one man operation in Toronto, Canada. I have never met the man. I simply am a satisfied customer who has owned the Elad for about 2 y... | |
| Morrison Elad, Some opinions Please. I also love my ELAD and think it is an incredible bargain. There was one guy here who had an axe to grind with Morrison and plastered it all over the audio boards. To each his own. | |
| Need some wisdom comparing planars Tim,My system now consists of the SCD777ES source, ELAD pre to 2 Sunfire amps in biwire mono config to the 1.6qrs with an ACI titan II sub. ICs are the Jon Risch DIY Beldens and speaker cables are bi-wired analysis plus oval 9. I am currently deci... | |
| Need some wisdom comparing planars I had an inverted experience from yours. After my dealer demo'd the 1.6s, I fell in love with them. When he asked if I wanted to hear the 3.6s, I replied "No, this is the best sound I can imagine-if there's a better, more expensive speaker, I'd ra... | |
| Flood of Good Classic Rock Remasters These aren't real recent, but The Band remasters are great. Also the 1997 Moody Blues remasters IMO are at least as good as the MFSLs. |
