| What is the worst colour of speaker finish to you? I hate black woodgrain finishes. Why make something look like wood and then color it black, unless you're Brian Jones. | |
| What do you currently own that was bought on 'Gon? Good question!A krell KRC 2 pre-amp which was a great buy on a very good pre-amp. A Pass Labs Aleph Ono phono stage which was completely upgraded by the designer with all the goodies that went into the Xono. I was nervous about this purchase, but ... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck So what conclusion can we draw from all of this anamus, or has the original question been utterly lost? | |
| What's the funniest or dumbest thing you did? Thanks for the responses, I nearly fell out of my chair laughing. I'm not sure if I was laughing with you or at you, but does it matter? | |
| CD v. SACD Maybe because "we" whine too much about the technology not being perfected instead of letting Sony release it and see what needs to be improved from an end-users perspective! Why would they stick a lot more money into a format that is regularly de... | |
| Albertporter only needs 50 Albert, put me down for two. If I buy these I will finally have one thing as good as what you have. Can you imagine what a high that would be for me. Besides, if I can do anything to help Albert, I will! | |
| How do you clean your records? All of these are good suggestions. I still prefer the Sota LPC record cleaner. It's the lazy mans way at arriving at a great source. | |
| What was your latest LP find?? I have been buying all the "simply vinyl" releases I can get my hands on. They sound fabulous and are relatively inexpensive compared to lots of other high-end LPs. There are still a lot more I want to find. Don't buy any before I have what I want... | |
| What component have you changed out the most? I'm with Sugarbrie, I have had three pre-amps in the last year. I have been fortunate to have replaced the old with something better each time. It must be some kind of foolish obsession because I still check for pre-amps first even though I really... | |
| 2 channel system? Linn was very influential in developing the theory of priority that went beyond the foolish 50% on speakers syndrome that used to be so popular. The source is far and away the most important! If you don't get the music off the source, LP or CD, yo... | |
| CD v. SACD Brian, I have a tendency to sound more dogmatic than I probably am. It was not my intention to argue as much as perhaps discuss the differences in opinion. IMO redbook CD is a flawed medium which as been fantastically tweaked to sound much better ... | |
| Dylan News Marty, I envy you! I had a bootleg called "Passed over, and Rolling Thunder." It was one side from Newport, and three sides from the Revue tour. Someone stole it from me. I'd love to be able to get most of it back. The Newport set had the best cov... | |
| Looking for the best audio porn Check out Albert Porters pix, they're really something!!! | |
| What cartridge should I try ? My componants are different than what both of you are using, but I too am working towards a Lyra Helikon. I have a Benz Glider now and I'm very happy with it but...The Helikon is far and away a better cartridge. | |
| CD v. SACD I certainly can't argue intelligently with your unsubstantiated opinion. |
