Good Time to be a metal fan with a turntable
Aquabahn,Have they reissued Motorhead? I'll have to check it out. I know Reign In Blood was re-released on LpWhat about early Megadeth(especially the first album)? 
The New Led Zeppelin releases
Dude your name is Bongofury! I mean how many hits does it take for the Classic records version to sound bad????Okay I'm just kidding. I just thought it was funny that your name was bongofury. Anyway, I agree with you about Led Zep IV not sounding ...

Mofiguy,Led Zeppelin II and III are two of my favorite releases from the Classic Records re-issues. They sound amazing. I can't wait to hear what they sound like when "Pagey" gets done with them.Well it's good to hear that there are still fans out...

Howard, the recording is going to blow your mind. I can't believe how good it sounds. If I was younger I would light up a "fattie" and hold up a lighter in the living room.

I guess no one likes Led Zeppelin anymore. 
Integra DTC-9.8
Hey Kal, Really? Well then you are a good writer and I thought it was a great review! It helped me in my purchase. Thank You.Justin 
Integra DTC-9.8
Hi Tbone,I am going off of the Stereophile review for the piece. I compared it to my system but it's really not a fair comparison. My two channel system costs $150,000. My pre-amp alone costs $19,000 so I wouldn't expect the Integra to compete wit...

'they blew'em off the stage'
Metallica opening for Ozzy in '86 on the Masters of Puppets tour.Metallica on the Monsters of Rock tour of '88. They blew everbody away that day. Of course given the lineup(see below) it's not as impressive as blowing Ozzy away in '86.Van Halen (h... 
The Messenger Preamp
Hey MikeSounds great.By the way when I bought the MMessenger I really wanted Elliot to put in a remote for mine. Well he finally found a company that produced an ir receiver that would not degrade the sound. So they sent him the piece, but when he... 
The Messenger Preamp
Mike,Elliot was just at my house a few hours ago adjusting my turntable and he mentioned your review. Well I had to look it up as soon as he left.All I can say is "Bravo"! I have owned the Messenger for about two and a half years now. I have alway... 
Cable elevators - conventional wisdom wrong?
I own the Shunyata Dark Field Elevators. They did improve the sound of my system; however the improvement was let's say 3%. In other words I could hear a difference but it wasn't night and day. So if we are to assume Shunyata's theory is correct, ... 
Ipod Dock with direct out?????
a. for 379 don't complain about build quality. what do you expect.b. in evaluating the wadia it seems to me if your looking for a convenient transport for your ipod that will produce near cd quality it's a nice solution.c. the question for me is h... 
Ipod Dock with direct out?????
Carl, we're talking about putting lossless copies of your whole cd collection on to your IPOD and using it as the transport running into a DAC. 
Vinyl vs. top-notch digital
David,From reading Sns post I think he meant optimizing each source not the system. I have gone thru that to. I started with an $8,000 piece of crap Krell CD player, then went to $4,300(at the time) Lector CDP-7t which blew the Krell and every oth...
