PranaFidelity speakers, what say you?
Pts, thanks for the invite but I have my heart and ears set on monitors. (That, and I can't part with my Timbernation maple stands that I had made)I took a look at the Tekton monitors as well as his whole line and he uses different drivers from sp... 
PranaFidelity speakers, what say you?
Pts, I'm afraid the Pranas are out of my reach, price-wise. They do have that "in the room" presentation. From what I remember from a few years ago when I first heard them I was told that the electronics made by Prada are responsible for a lot of ... 
PranaFidelity speakers, what say you?
Pts, like you, I’ve just heard them at shows (twice) and they never fail to impress. They have a presentation like no other speaker I’ve heard which can be beguiling but I wonder how they’d fare in the long run. Even this last time this past weeke... 
Class D is just Dandy!
Just one (okay, two) listens to the ELAC Adante speakers backed by the Audio Alchemy electronics and I'm sold on class D. I went to the LAX Audio Show just for the ELAC speakers but now I'm sold on class D as well. Hell, I might even start streami... 
Class D is just Dandy!
I came back from the LAX Audio Show and all I can say is that I went to hear the ELAC Adante speakers (which I will get) and also fell for the Audio Alchemy (class D) electronics. Class D is in the house!All the best,Nonoise

Buying a power cord from France, import duty and taxes?
I'v boughten several knives from France and never had a problem. No import duties or fees or any hang ups in customs. And these were knives; easily determined a weapon (of all things) and it all went smoothly.What the seller is proposing is what I... 
Tannoy Prestige made in China?
Some time ago I bought a TEAC CDP from TEAC over in Commerce, Ca, a few years before they moved, and it was while auditioning it that they told me about Tannoy and how all the cabinets are finished there before going back to England for final asse... 
Radio Signal interference
I think ferrite chokes may help but you'll need the right one. Some are real magnets and some are soft ferrite and not real magnets. And depending on the metal used, they cover different frequencies.Here is a great and really in depth link to RF i... 
Any one going to the new LA Audio show at the Sheraton Gateway Hotel

Glad to have you back Frank. Your ears must be quite acute if you could hear the blood flowing from a faulty valve. No one here can now question your aural acuity!As for the donor of you new aortic valve, you're in great company since Arnold Schwa...
