| Reliability/Repair Issues w/Sony 9000es DVD player I have had problems with mine not reading SACDs, sometimes it will not read one and the next day it the same disc will play! Also it is finicky about playing some DVDs and I get the 0013 message (unplayable disc). I can not believe Sony and the pr... | |
| need some suggestions for Acoustics Blues I cast my vote for Mississippi John Hurt as well, very pleasent and smooth to listen to. | |
| Tom Waitts Where do I begin? Mule Variations is very good if you can get past all the effects and odd sounds (to add texture?) he uses. | |
| Did I damage my cartridge? I just got a Zerodust and in the instructions it tells you to press down lightly. At the very least you wrote this thread and may have saved some others from applying too much force. Thank youPhil | |
| Guitar Solos There was a similar thread a few weeks ago with many great responses | |
| Audioquest/Acoustic Zen/Analysis Plus? Sean, as far as specifications, is impedance the main variable to cable sound in your opinion? If so is there a target number or are they all over the map? For instance for solid state amplifiers I imagine impedance figures may be different than t... | |
| Audioquest/Acoustic Zen/Analysis Plus? Adiorio I should address my stand on the AZ 'house sound' to you as my response was to your post. While of course YMMV regarding the sound of AZ products with your stereo I found them to be a little bass heavy, a friend uses the term 'driving forc... | |
| Suggestions please. An Audio Note speaker could be had for $1000 used, they are around 94db. I have read very good things about them but not heard them myself. | |
| Audioquest/Acoustic Zen/Analysis Plus? I agree Sean, the ideal method is to try the cable in your system but that is not always easy to arrange and I think it is best to have an idea of what to expect. I think my comment about AZ being warm is conservative, I have heard it (specificall... | |
| Audioquest/Acoustic Zen/Analysis Plus? AZ is slightly warm IMO, I recommend Audience instead for more neutral sound and better value. | |
| Magnepan 1.6 vs Magnepan MG-1 I have owned both Maggie MG1 and 1.6 and can say the 1.6 is more dynamic and sound much better, but you need the power, at least 200 watts with lots of current. I ended up selling my 1.6 as I could not afford an amp for them, they will take as muc... | |
| Magnepan MMG's just arrived Maggie's have a reputation for taking a long time to break in, (probably 59 days if you live in my world) I would give them at least a month of moderate to loud play (according to my 1.6s). | |
| Quad 99 better than Adcom GFP-750? Enlighten me Gonglee3Why do you prefer the Quad to the Adcom? Do you agree the Quad sounds less HI FI? In other words does the Quad remind you more of music?thanks,Phil | |
| Did I damage my cartridge? ZaikesmanI have read that you can clean them, I forget the specifics, the article was in one of my Audio magazines. | |
| Zaikesman's Username Pronunciation Field Guide Tireguy, but you use a different name in those movies you make, don't you? BTW I would very much like to see pictures of you (AWESOME I am sure) 3.6s. Also I read your comments about Sound Lab speakers, it seems a natural progression to me, I hope... |
