Modifying my Mark Levinson 332 for a unique visual experience
Very nice remodel indeed. Though I've  a number of the ML pieces, I'm also not greatly familiar either. I'd just think it was supposed to look like that. Very beautiful; great work. Hopefully it sings for you now. 
What Audio Research preamp would be an upgrade to my LS2B
I'll tag on to Audioconnection's comments on the LS 28. I heard it yesterday with the new Foundation Series VT 80 tube amp. Wow, was it good. One of the guys from Audio Research was there and said that he felt the LS 28 was a little better than th... 
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD
" Above all I want to cry and only some systems can acheve this." I find this comment refreshing and honest. Being moved by the music is the whole reason to listen in the first place.

The awful truth about CDs, do they have the same shelve life as LP's ?
Have had over one thousand CDs through my collection and currently 700-800. I've run across one CD that didn't want to play but I ripped it to my drive and burned another copy and the CDR plays fine. It was from Monty Python's - The Final Ripoff. ...
