| Loudspeakers that match well w/Bryston B-60? I have owned a B60P for about 2 1/2 years now. Originally I had Spendor SP2 speakers and the sound was terrific. I moved to a larger room and then purchased PMC FB-1 speakers. They are distributed by Bryston in the the USA and work well together. ... | |
| Best classic pre and post amp combinations I would recommend Conrad-Johnson PV5 pre-amp & MV-50 power amp. The combo is VERY MUSICAL! They were produced in the mid '80's. New around $3000, should be able to buy for $900-$1200 now. PV5 has only one phono input, but what a phono section!... | |
| Turntable Stand I am using a Sound Organisation Z545 rack to support a 50lb. Sota Saphire turntable. Very solid rack with spiked feet, glass shelf on rubber feet over a steel frame. No vibration or wobble. Very effective. Retail cost is $290.00 through Audio Advi... | |
| Synergistic dealer? Try "Better Sound Concepts" in Pittsburgh, PA area. I've been dealing with Al Tucker for over 20 years! Great guy with resonable prices. 412-935-5800. | |
| IC's for Arcam CD23T Rogue 99 Magnum I have the same CD player, not the "T" version. I have been using Synergistic Research Looking Glass Phase 1 and AC Master Coupler for power cord. Much better bass and resoulution than with supplied. | |
| Why JVC XRCDs are so expensive? New technology always has a price. I remember paying $15.00 for "Discovered Again" by Dave Grusin on Sheffield, new in 1978. Direct-to-disk records were very high priced compared to regular LPs at the time. Quality recordings are worth every penney. | |
| best used speaker for around 2500? Why buy used when the PMC FB-1 or the Spendor SP-1/2E can be bought new for $2500? Both are excellent for mid-range detail and full, natural sound. | |
| Comparison CJ MV-52 or MV-50 to MV-55? I havn't heard these other amps, I'm looking to buy a MV50 or MV52 also. Go to CJ's website. They display pictures and what has been upgraded on all of their vintage equipment. | |
| SOTA / FT-3 / Sonata compatability? I have been using a Sota Saphire III/Audioquest PT-5/Grado MCZ since early '90s. No hum problems at all. My next cartridge will be a Sonata. | |
| A moment of silence for Henry Kloss.... I agree (bowing my head now). Didn't we all start with Advent loudspeakers??!!! |
