| Pick and post 1 record you never tire of and play over and over... Good replies! | |
| Wild anecdote on variables in a listening room / studio (from Darko) Rodman, I'm glad I amused you. In fact I have decided that I need to do EXACTLY THAT (tune my new-ish listening room) before I spend any more money because my system is decent. In re: rave reviews of a $72,000 DAC and a $3,000 power cord...call m... | |

| Pick and post 1 record you never tire of and play over and over... Anything Steely DanI was never a huge fan back in the day, but I recently got the remastered AJA, and it's so good! | |
| Wild anecdote on variables in a listening room / studio (from Darko) I should have expected snark ;)If you’ve read Jim Smith’s book, "Get Better Sound", he discusses the importance of the room, and what a big part proper tuning and acoustic treatment of the listening room makes in getting the most out of one’s hifi... | |
| Vandersteen Moel 2Ce better than Model 1B used in midsize room I have the newest 2CE, the Signature 3 (they replaced 20 year old 2CE's...I guess you can conclude I like the Vandy sound!).My room is about 12x15 with the speakers on the long wall. I’m about 8 feet from the speakers. They sound excellent. The ne... | |

| Keith Jarrett on the importance of audio sound quality Thanks for sharing. I need to listen to more by him, but I have the Koln concert and adore it. | |
| DAVE w/ or w/out M Scaler? I'm curious about the Chord Hugo TT2 with and without the Scaler. I've been told it's amazing too. | |
| Is static the culprit? jetterThanks for the suggestion. I don't have my cable box going to the system. I did try the cheater plug (didn't work), and every other idea and permutation. I'll keep troubleshooting it. | |
| The best speakers over 50K tomic601 You have Treo CTs AND Sevens! Good God, man. I'm dying for Treos and you went to heaven with Sevens. Congrats. ;) | |
| Is static the culprit? I have an Odyssey Khartago++ (upgraded version) and realized after some time with it that I had a low level buzz/hum coming from both speakers, a grounding issue I was told. I didn't realize it was abnormal I guess. My previous amp, a McCormack DN... | |
| Which integrated amplifier . mcmvmx -So sorry that you are not winning the fight against that damn cancer. Godspeed.If your daughter isn't a hi-fi nut, the simplest system possible might be best. Maybe you can find a good dealer to trade in your current system for something... | |
| Speakers which always sound good LARSEN! Either the 6, the 8, or best, the 9 (the 8 sounds as good, I’m told, but the 9 is prettier). They put up a wall of sound that is unique, can go against the wall (preferred), and are very much like live music. In a living room, they fill th... |
