| AXPONA anyone? Sounds good, thanks! | |
| AXPONA anyone? Could anyone please recommend a nice restaurant unique to Chicago? | |
| Lay away purchase Agree with Viridian's trepidation. Too much play/gray area in this kind of arrangement for me. How late is too late for a payment? Even though its layway, you would be in the collections business. How is that for a hobby? | |
| Short Run .5M Interconnect on a budget? Tough to say. An option is 47 Labs OTA Storatos Cable and two sets RCA plugs for total of $300. In short runs, they are tonally superior - imo, in my system - than Museaus, but do not provide the pitch black background. | |
| What are the "new" brands in amps and pre-amps Class A amps from Bret D'Agostino's Bully Sound Company. | |
| how well Quad303 amp mates with B&W dm303's ? Ideally they could use more power, although the DM303s are not super picky. I use them with an NAD 314. They sound fine with my limited expectations but sound fuller with my 75 watt amp. If the Quad's output dumps at lower impedance, that effect i... | |
| Magico/YG Both brands will be at axpona. The YG, including Carmel, did very well in the hotel room at RMAF. | |
| Less listings Less gear that I regularly search for seems to be for sale. Because the searching is so much worse now than before, its tough to say. I conclude that the obvious increase in commercial, non-hobbiest listings has displaced the more earnest ads by u... | |
| Kef Blade or Wilson Audio Alexia? KEF should have outspent for a better space at the Denver Marriott. Begs the question of what kind of room you need in order to get ten of thousands of dollars of sound out of them. I am not saying they are bad; to me they did not do well at RMAF. | |
| Your jaw dropping cables Having a jaw-dropping cable experience means the predecessor was pretty bad. | |
| Importance of line stage pre--Who Knew? Unexpectedly fixing the bottleneck in your system for $500 makes for a super day. I know I - and probably a lot of others - have had that transformational improvement going from a bad to a good preamp. | |
| What deserves more attention on Audiogon? 47 labs cables, specifically at short runs, are incredible for the money. They have been discussed but not much. They have been dismissed because of their simple design, but I think thier genius is in their rca connectors. Great tone; they replace... | |
| RMAF 2012 Postmortem Analysis Audio, I was told, is having 25% off for RMAF that is good until the end of this month. | |
| RMAF 2012 Postmortem I have only heard of the company peripherally before, but my big winner was YG Acoustics, especially in the Veloce room. Veloce is newer amplification company that employs a sophisticated battery system to power their hybrid amps and preamp.Also r... | |
| Retail? I would put the retail price when originally purchased and then put current price in the description. I am the type not to buy something if I think the seller is spinning any information and I check out everything before I send a stranger money. A... |
