Learned a valuable lesson about ambient noise I agree, keeping ambient noise levels as low as possible is a great benefit and helps one enjoy the music more! I replaced our homes central air system in large part because the air handler was too close to my listening area and created a constant... | |
Abbingdon music research AMR cd-77 is how good? One other point that would be paramount to me if I were looking at the AMR player and "value" questions is whether I preferred the sound of the AMR to a "better" value like Esoteric. When we were listening in the AMR room, we were rotating sources... | |
Abbingdon music research AMR cd-77 is how good? I share John's values as to spending money on digital and would not spend the kind of dinero the AMR costs. Prejudices now noted, I'll say I listened on two different days for an extended period to the AMR player in all AMR system with Rosso Fiori... | |
Opinions on Arcam FMJ CD 37 Player I've had a FMJ Cd37 for about five months now and think it's one the biggest bargains in audio. I bought it while my Marantz Sa11S1 was being repaired and instantly found it to be much more to my tastes than the Marantz. The Tech Radar review Tom6... | |
What's up with that? I have no problem with Audiogon charging a percentage of a sale, they provide a valuable service to the audio community. However, it would be very desirable to regain the ability to email members as we could in the past. The sense of community amo... | |
why do we argue? That was a succinct clarification of the technically correct usage of Objectivist & Subjectivist Bryon. Your education is evident. When I used the terms in reference to audio "personalities," they referenced the differences between the two enc... | |
bass traps . Which kind Sound doc, while room furnishings can go a long way towards ameliorating problems, they only affect the higher frequencies. Few of us have such perfect listening rooms that there are no low frequency anomalies. Many rooms have 10-20db. peaks or va... | |
The Problem with Synergistic Research I've read this post's development with a bit of bafflement. Sabai, I get your desire for the best trade-in, price structure, customer service, etc. We all want that for every product we buy, don't we? However, in the end, every business owner has ... | |
Review: Pass Labs XA100.5 Amplifier Thanks for a very well written summary of your experiences with Pass equipment. Most informative and entertaining reading. Very nice system BTW (and I really like the DIY rack you built.) | |
An SACD question I've found quality of SACD's to be variable on much popular material. Enough so that I don't go out of my way to seek them out for anything but classical music. However, classical releases tend to have good to excellent recording engineering and c... | |
Is it worth upgrading my tonearm? If your budget allows, I second Manitunc's advice. I'd never spend the money to upgrade a Rega with the usual list of upgrades considering how good the Audiomods arm is for its ridiculously low price. | |
Best place to consign classical LPs in NYC? In Tampa, the Sound Exchange sells classical lp's for 2.99 to 3.99 for readily available titles in exc.+ to NM condition and over $100 in the case of rare collectibles. They are one of two outlets for classical vinyl in my area. I imagine they are... | |
why do we argue? As a long time reader and poster to this forum, I have the impression that a large proportion of the most contentious arguments evolve out of two beliefs: #1. Why things sound the way they do can be explained through current knowledge of science a... | |
why use towers if you've got a sub?? Ray, if you look at the very top of the page, you'll see in the second line "learn-forums-home theater." Still, I'm not sure why whether one has two, three, five, or seven channels really matters with regard to the original question. Unless I'm mi... |
