| Need Help With a Bright System Can you try your father's Primaluna with the Triangle speakers? That should be a good match, and could help you decide if the speakers are worth keeping.I have found that highly detailed budget systems benefit the most from power conditioning. The... | |
| Stock Rega arm-wiring -- how Cheesey??? It also depends on your cartridge and listening preferences. I had a Clearaudio MM cartridge that was a great match with the original wired Rega arm- but was too aggressive and detailed with 'upgraded' wiring. Whereas a Shelter sounded much better... | |

| What CDP & power cord for Plinius 9200 integrated Second the VH Audio power cables. Used both the Flavor 2 and Flavor 4 with the Plinius 9200. Also used the Audience Powerchord, but liked the Flavor 4 better for less money. | |
| Any opinions on Audiomat Amps? I have owned both the Audiomat Arpege and the Equation 25 speakers (but not at the same time). My two cents...The Arpege is a nice clean sounding amp, but fairly weak bass, and lacked 'grip' with most speakers I used it with. Replaced it with a AS... | |
| Speaker upgrade help needed: 4500$ used I have used a Plinius 9200 with the Carolina Audio single driver (medium efficiency Jordan JX92 drivers)- very holographic, nice combination. Jordan based single driver speakers (Carolina Audio, Konus, others?) are easy to place in any medium or s... | |
| Is it worth purchasing the VPI 16.5? A record cleaning machine is definitely a worthwhile purchase. However, I find it hard to recommend the VPI 16.5. I recently purchased one new and it arrived with internal wires disconnected, and then the vacuum motor failed after cleaning a few r... | |
| Thiel CS6 to Von Schweikert VR4 JR - Am i Crazy? Just a thought. I recently purchased a DEQX preamp that completely transformed a pair of speakers that were ruthlessly revealing and too bright for my tastes. The DEQX has very sophisticated DSP speaker correction capabilities that correct crossov... | |

| Question for Quad 99 CD-P owners The variable analog output should work fine using a digital input.I have a different question for Quad 99CDP owners. I am thinking of getting a Behringer digital eq device to do some room correction. Could I attach the Behringer to the digital out... | |

| Speaker design myths revealed I have owned Carolina Audio JTM speakers for about a year now. These speakers use the Jordan driver in a wide baffle transmission line enclosure. I have owned many other speakers, including five other brands at present. So far, compared with these... | |
| Harbeth Owners - What do you think? I own the Super HL5's. I have not heard other Harbeth models, but they all use the Radial drivers and are voiced for flat frequency response, so there is probably a strong family resemblance. As to the sound, they are not bright, forward, hyped, r... |
