| Are You Addicted to Audio? You could try the InnerSound Eros Electrostatic Hybrids. These are more efficient than the ML speakers and will play much louder with better dynamic capability than many dynamic cone speakers--yet with the transparency and delicacy of the best ele... | |
| UPS COD, Prepare to WAIT Hey, You fellas are lucky. A while back I sent a package UPS COD and it took them a full 2 MONTHS to get the check to me. Even though my zip code was clearly indicated, they initially sent it to a different town (wrong zip), so naturally they had ... | |
| Newbie Letterbox Question Thanks for the help Avguygeorge--I appreciate the tutorial. I'm coming up to speed fast with help from decent folks like you. Yikes--chopping off a disciple seems unconscionable! I may have to buy a widescreen TV. Plato :) | |
| Newbie Letterbox Question I just answered my own question. I didn't realize that DVDs could be recorded on both sides--Bladerunner has the widescreen version on one side and the standard version on the other. All I had to do was to remove the disk and flip it over. Plato | |

| Best Preamp For $1200 Used Buy an Adcom GFP-750 ($750 or so used)and quit while you're ahead--you can spend much much more--and actually get worse performance. I also liked the Krell KAV-250p if you want a more upscale name, and those can be had for $1200 used. If you need ... | |
| HELP!! Martin Logan's clicking when off? Hi Terry, This clicking is most likely the result of an insect or dust particle trapped on the ESL element. If you unplug the AC cord from the speaker the noise might take 10 or more minutes to fade to silence, but it should gradually stop. One wa... | |
| OPINIONS ON ROGUE 99PREAMP Many tube phono stages are inherently noisy and there's not much you can do about that. There are only two ways to dramatically reduce the amount of noise (hiss) relative to the music signal. First is to use a quieter phono stage, like the Lehmann... | |
