| CD vs CD/SACD Player – Tube-based or Not Charles1dad,No, I haven't had the pleasure. For a long time I've read how wonderful they are and it's only been recently that the emperor shed some of his clothes. Some are now saying what you say about them: too clinical. It could very well be th... | |
| Marantz PM-15S2b first thoughts Arcamguy, Yes, it can be bi-amped and if you're inclined, you can slave up to 4 units for surround sound (which would be overkill but it can be done with the F.C.B.S. feature).Charles1dad, I believe that people who hear this in a store setting wil... | |
| CD vs CD/SACD Player – Tube-based or Not If the Luxman were bought stateside, it can be repaired, if under warranty. If not, i"d avoid it. Exoteric is nice but expensive. Like Batmobile says, you can try the Marantz SA-15S2b. I just got one and love it. Most of my listening so far is wit... | |

| Why does most new music suck? The simplest of melodies being the most pleasing allows one to what can be expressed with a minimum of expression. Nothing overtly ornate or colossal in scope, nothing pounded down your ears. At a social gathering, It is the gifted ones who can ma... | |

| Difference in quality in products made in China? Different politics, economies and world views. Spying has been going on for so long now. It's just gotten so sophisticated that "why bother?" and "what, me worry?" are the bars for conscience. Just now on the news I saw a 10 yr old girl who goes b... | |
| Why does most new music suck? ***Definitions of _______become irrelevant to those offended by it.***Scary to think of what could be inserted as it would have grave implications. I know that wasn't your intention but when I reread it.......And yes, the Beatles were 'better'.Rok... | |
| Why Build Quality Matters I don't see a debate here, yet. We all agree that build quality matters. It's just that I feel it doesn't have to have a jewel like finish or one inch casing. Maybe I could have elaborated better than to just say with the "parts necessary" and sta... | |
| Why does most new music suck? I think Marty's thoughts of the composition of audiophiles here closely mirrors mine. I'm as progressive as they come and try to keep an open mind, but I've always found that I've never much appreciated lots of music that most here find enjoyable,... | |
| Why Build Quality Matters Great build quality doesn't have to have a jewel like finish or vault like build quality. It just needs to be made as well as possible with the parts necessary to do the job. Srajan at 6moons pointed this out with his latest review of the Job 225 ... | |
| Why does most new music suck? I like it when a referee blows the whistle. | |
| Why does most new music suck? Thank you Simao. It's spoken word performance and every bit as bad as when the beatniks did it. Hip-Hop is no different as far as I can tell.Didn't like it then, don't like it now.People keep mistaking it for music, and talent.All the best,Nonoise | |
