| Torn between two amps you may not want to hear this but how about selling both and getting a better OTL?Or maybe sell the Cary and upgrade wire with the moneyto my way of thinking, I like vinyl so much better than digital I would honor it first...but then I am a bit of... | |
| Best Song Intro not that I am a Journey fan... but I always like the beginning to 'Don't Stop Believing' it is quite good, especially relative to the rest of the songs the band has recorded... | |
| Power Cords VenHaus DIY PCs are very good in my experience. They were about $70 each a few years ago when I made mine... | |
| Stingray bad for Merlin TSM's or Revel M22's??? I do not believe it about the soundstage. When I owned a Stingray it was a very good amp with nice tone and very robust too. | |
| About speaker cables.. in general YES! | |
| Taylor Swift I saw her on SNL and was impressed with her performance and candor - even if "Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time":^D | |

| Another great thing about analog...... I have been buying jazz records at the local used music record shop and so happy to pay only $3 - $5!Dave Brubeck, Weather Report, Chick Corea, John Coltrane, Louis Armstrong and many more all in abundance!I am happy to see the store owner selling... | |
| Reference 3a decapo vs. J M Reynard Duets/Bliss I have owned the JMR Trentes and DeCapossurprisingly the Trentes were easier to drive and I preferred them, I did not do a side by side comparison so I am not giving you a scientific impression, I owned the DeCapos a few years after the Trentes an... | |
| Maggies a waste if only 3' from backwall? Jeffkad, to clarify my post, I have not heard the 1.7sI have only read that the 3.6 suffers from continuity problems, though I have heard them a few times (briefly)and did not notice.I have heard the 20 and it was terrific but in a very big room, ... | |
| Maggies a waste if only 3' from backwall? Eldartford,I know the 1.6 has a QR tweeter. The point I was making is that the 1.7 has all QR drivers, it seems to me this would be a plus. Also fwiw, there are some who think the 3.6 lacks coherency because the bass panel can not keep up with the... | |
| Maggies a waste if only 3' from backwall? I wonder if the new 1.7 would be a step up from the 3.6, now that it has all QR drivers, which would help make it more coherent. I have not read about a comparison. It also is supposed to have a larger sweetspot. It seems like it would be a better... | |
| Your First Vinyl Album. it was either Steve Miller 'The Joker' or Blue Oyster Cult 'Tyranny and Mutation' I do not remember. fwiw BOC still remains a guilty pleasure. | |
| Maggies a waste if only 3' from backwall? They would still sound pretty darn good but not optimum IMO. The extra few feet away from the wall improves the bass and gets rid of some muddiness, thickness and lumpy bass compared to what they can do.I should also add that soundstage depth will... | |
| The 1.6 Maggies - any thoughts on best amp? first of all there are many threads on this subject you should look for...for a ss amp the Innersound ESL is a popular choice... |
