| Where do you draw the line??? Onhwy61, Comparable in what respects? In the same way a boom box plays pretty much the same music as a cheap stereo?I have never heard the two systems mentioned in the TAS article, but if the $75,000 system sounded even remotely similar to the $15... | |
| Biggest Live Miss 23 years ago today............ Biggest regret... some friends were going to see Keith Green a few miles away (I think it was in Tyler TX) and asked if I wanted to go. I had to work that night, but one of the friends even volunteered to work for me. I thought I would have plenty... | |
| Does it matter what gauge power cord that you use? I have replaced all of my stock powercords with DIY cords via Chris VenHaus recipes. I did the first one because the dollar investment was minimal and if it didn't work that well I would not be out very much. I replaced all of the cords because th... | |
| Where do you draw the line??? I have seen a lot of people who suggest that a $10,000 system can sound as good as a $30,000. I have yet to see this actually happen. Too often statements like this are made, but they are never substantiated.What would the $10,000 system consist o... | |
| Will hybrid SACDs play in a DVD-A player?? The redbook layer will play on your deck as long is it is capable of playing redbook CDs. The SACD layer will not play on your deck at all. The two formats are not at all interchangable! | |
| Anyone noticed tiny cracks on the Pink Floyd SACD? I didn't until I got the LP. After listening to the LP and SACD side by side I pulled the disc out and threw it against the wall. Hence the tiny little cracks! | |
| Calling all Pink Floyd fans David, were you really that impressed with the Police "Every breath you take" SACD. I bought it a few weeks ago, listened to it a few times and put it away. I liked the DSOTM SACD better! | |
| The best CD Player for the money Elizabeth, you are a barrel of laughs! I love to read your posts. I got the Sony SCD 777es for a real steal, so I guess it would be my recommendation to the person who long since bought what he was looking for!!! | |

| Re wire my speakers ? If you are pleased with the sound why not make them better. Improving internal cable can make a lot of difference. Many companies really skimp on the wiring. The nice thing about this is how easy it is to upgrade the cable. I bought a pair of spea... | |

| what to do ? I have the Benz Glider on a Rega RB 900 arm and have been very happy with it. The Rega does have TWL's hifi mod which I think will make a bigger difference than what you will experience between the Rega and Benz cartridge. It looks like a 'nothing... | |
| Buying LPs - where do you shop Simply vinyl http://www.simplyvinyl.com has a nice sale going right now. I have been very impressed with everything I've bought from them. See if anything catches your eye. | |
| Denon 103? Shure V15? AT OC9? guidance I think the Shure is probably the most overrated of the group. The OC9 is 'arguably' the best of them, but other could have different conclusions. If you were willing to consider used cartridges which is admittedly more difficult since it requires... | |
