| To Z or Not To Z - Systems I own the Z-systems AND a Sigtech. The Sigtech corrects for my room. The Z systems lets me alter the tonal balance of poorly produced recordings. It is quite transparent.The Z systems is NOT a substitute for a Tact or Sigtech room equalizer. | |

| The best Carl Orff Carmina Burana? Perhaps this is too obvious but there is an advertised as mint Philips LP of the Kegel listed on ebay. (22 hrs left).Plus there are numerous used classical LP dealers with lists on the net. Virtually every major classical issue (and the all the ab... | |
| Do you own Dunlavy SC-IV's AND a yardstick ??? Yes. The correction is in the time domain. "Flat" frequency response is actually the "side effect" so to speak of maintaining the time coherence. If you Sigtech correct a non phase coherent speaker more of the processing power goes to correcting t... | |

| Bybee quantum filters for speakers I use the Bybee Ultra with my Dunlavy SC-Vs. They make a significant difference. I also use the Bybee at the input of my power amps. | |
| how old is too old when buying speakers? I've bought lots of stuff on a'gon and have not had any problems with the transaction. (Fedex is another matter).I've bought two pair of Tukans for secondary systems and think they are great for the cost.Assuming they weren't over driven, 10 years... | |
| A'gon Transactions, Risk of Loss? I don't think you are out of your head BUT the ROL should be something explicitly agreed to as part of the deal. I've done quite a few deals as buyer and seller here on a'gon and have had my share of damaged goods.I've tended to go with the buyer ... | |
| Where have the long-time regulars gone? I've been checking the forums here since Feb. 99. I've learned a lot from the regulars and have tried to help out where I had some knowledge. It seems that most specific questions get answered. I think that the absence of Romy is one of the better... | |

| Tube combos for a jolida 302B I have a Jolida 302 in an office system. The stock Jolida tubes sound BAD. I have Svetlana EL34's and they sound excellent. The driver tubes for the 302 overlap with my main rig so I have tried a fair number of rare NOS input tubes. Decent NOS doe... | |
| Reliablity of Jolida equipment I've owned or placed with my friends about 8 Jolidas over the last two years and have posted detailed comments on multiple threads. Search using Jolida. | |
| Short notes on Sibelius Seven Symphonies Anyone who likes Sibelius should listen to Vanska with the Lahti orchestra especially #5. | |
| Good NOS tube dealers/New prod. tube alternatives? I have dealt with both Andy and Kevin on multiple occasions. Different approaches but VERY happy with both. As above, be sure to tell them what equipment you are using. | |
| Speakers to go with a Jolida 302b Try a pair of Linn Tukans. There is a review thread on them here on audiogon. I use them with a Jolida 302 in one of my office systems and installed the very same combo for a "poor" college student friend of mine. A plus for the college student is... |
