Best Sax Jazz Coming from Montreal, I am happy to report that the Montreal Jazz Festival is doing better every year. On the other hand the music presented cannot, in very many cases, be even remotely called "jazz". I am not hung up on nomenclature, believe me, ... | |
Why Don't More People Love Audio? Yeah, the doctor is right. Music is a distant second to expensive equipment in a two horse race, when all is said and done in the audiophile kingdom. Hang around, you will see arguments in a criss-cross pattern concerning: music/equipment/music/eq... | |
AR ES–1 Problem.... Suggestions Yes, they do that. Quite strange that the motor continues to vibrate even though the tt is off, but that is normal as some current always runs to the motor; weird, but normal. | |
AR ES–1 Problem.... Suggestions Mr. Merrill has retired a short while ago and I don't know if you can now get a whole lot from Underground Sound for AR tts. It may be worth a try, but don't hold your breath. Plenty of info available at AA on the mother of all suspended tts. A nu... | |
What parts of a TT create soundstage and PRAT ? I like it! First you start with subjective expressions without very clear meaning and then you try to correlate them with something physical on, of all things, a turntable! Great day in the morning! Will wonders ever cease? Folks firmly believe yo... | |
Review: Sota LPC Record cleaner Tweak SOTA produces fine products and I have always felt the coast of record cleaning machines to be too high. On the other hand, spare us (or is it just me?) the editorializing on cd and get on with your vacuum cleaner pitch. Why not change the name to... | |
Can you ever have too much power? Subaruguru beat me to the punch and with so few words! Rats. | |
Bryston owners ONLY I have been using 7B STs for the last 16 months or so and see no reason to "upgrade", "downgrade" or "sidegrade". From what I read, the new SST series is better. The question is: to what extent? I don't think that the introduction of "new" or "imp... | |
Rebuild Troika or new Kontrapunkt b I don't live up an alley! How dare you! Next you will say it's a bowling alley! The gall! I 'spose you're a high-ender? BTW self-deprecation is a devious thing. Nothing wrong with you pushing for the stuff you own and like. I don't mind the barbs.... | |

Bug Ugly The new Edge amplifiers, the sorriest looking piece of equipment I have ever seen. Reinforces my suspicion that high-end manufacturers have a jolly good time laughing at their customers. To call that a piece of industrial design is a sad joke. Mor... | |
Anyone ever replaced The AR motor? Lots of stuff about this on Audioasylum under vinyl. You may never leave AA. Motor is available from Hurst. Problem is getting the capstan off the shaft. On your model it is glued, I think. I have the AR ETL ONE and, I have read, that it is on tha... | |
Quietest amplifier you have ever owned. Who the hell is Norm Strong? | |
Quietest amplifier you have ever owned. Maybe you should put some music on. I always feel empty, in an empty room, with an empty cd drawer or naked platter with no musical matter, even more so on an empty stomach. Is listening with no music on a new audiophile preoccupation? And there I... |
