Buying Vacuum Tubes in Prague, Czech Republic
Here’s someone who sells in Prague. Check out their Contact Page. There's also this page of distributors in the Czech Republic. All the best, Nonoise  
Review ... Denon DCS-A110 Anniversary Edition
Congrats on the Denon SACD player. Yes, there has been progress on the shiny disc format and kudos for keeping with it. As for your druthers, I miss not having an "open tray" button on the remote of my Technics SL-G700 SACD player as well. It's w... 
What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report

Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark
Looks like jerry's got his wires crossed, as usual. Those companies listed have American products sold here, made there. And yes, there is an audience of buyers there as well. It isn't one way or the other: it's both ways being done at the same ti... 
Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark
Well, those speakers made in China subsidized the pricing and increased the profit margins you paid for those made in Denmark so you should have asked for a discount as well. All the best, Nonoise  
Dynaudio - Made in China vs Denmark
Gotta love the sane, reasoned arguments posted here with the occasional xenophobic responses peppered in for good measure, as if they just skimmed past what makes sense so their heads wouldn't explode. All the best, Nonoise  
FREE - THIEL CS 2_2 to a Good Home
@rop45 , Good on you sir! I did something similar awhile back with a "wounded" integrated I had. Someone  came over to buy a stereo rack and while listening to my system, I mentioned the integrated and he offered that he was handy with a solderin...

If you're talking about the Polestar, you're one lucky owner. Every review seems to love it. That, and it has the looks whereas the Tesla looks like it was designed by someone who used to design toasters. All the best, Nonoise

Must have been made on a Monday. Like British cars from those times, the employees were working off their hangovers from the weekend. All the best, Nonoise  
McIntosh Group purchased by PE firm
Well, looks like that private equity firm came up with a great idea to recoup some money and spread that McIntosh love: a $1,500 faceplate tacked onto a box. Al the best, Nonoise  
Definitely a good listen
@curiousjim , Thanks for the correction....I'll check it out. All the best, Nonoise

Hey....here's a list of companies you can avoid if MIC is that big a concern for you. Granted it only represents 1% of American and other countries with business ties in China, but, it's a start. All the best, Nonoise  
Definitely a good listen
@curiousjim  I checked that out and I prefer not to use Bluetooth as I'm a firm believer in hard wiring. Sizing things up, I think I can go the "under the carpet" route (I have a big one between me and my rig) and end up using only about 20-25' o... 
Definitely a good listen
@curiousjim , Sounds like a great set up. My Technics can also stream internet radio and if and when I get around to it, I may try that route as well but it will require a long length of cable from the router and a way to lay it out in my room.  ... 
Definitely a good listen
@boxcarman  I hear ya! I have the same feelings about internet radio as you. It just doesn't sound right. Right now, with my current set up, FM sounds so close to how CDs sounded with my older Marantz set up (PM15S2 integrated and SA15S2 SACD pla...
