| The ideal listening room In an old TAS (I think) they gave dimensions of 10 x 16 x 26 as ideal dimensions and this seems to be supported (roughly) by various articles I have read since. I tend to lean toward Stehno's idea of sloping walls to eliminate any parallel surface... | |

| What components sound best with Reynaud Trentes? John In what way are they better than the JMR wire? This stuff is so good my imagination is streched to think of a way to better them.I do not mean to sound negative and appreciate any infothank you for your help,Phil | |
| Which SS amp does sound the most warm of all? I went from a Rogue 120 Magnum to my Plinius SA100 MKIII and preferred the Plinius overall, very warm and extended and the music seems lit from within, very intimate and tonally correct. | |

| Cables recommended for Sony based system? I would recommend AZ WOW IC instead of Cardas, it would be cheaper and better and still very smooth IMO | |
| Cables recommended for Sony based system? 8TC is a little lean for my taste, Alpha Core Geortz MI2 Veracity is better | |
| Help me to tame brightness I think any speaker should be broken in for 300 or so hours before you consider it's sonic merits | |
| Album which you have listened to most? King Crimson 'Islands' - over the edge and mesmerizingPaul McCartney's first albumJohn Lennon's first albumI thought it is interesting about the 2 Beatles being listed but they are albums I go back to time and again. | |
| What's your favorite Patricia Barber album? I agree with Cafe Blue, I think it is the easiest to listen to as well. I find her other albums (except for Verse which I have not heard) have a quality which is almost tense in their presentation, almost too studio perfect, maybe it is her singin... |
