| New Analog system. where to start? Wrong. I started hearing Rega in 1983. | |
| New Analog system. where to start? The point is----- sometimes technology is used to advertise candy (Pop Tarts) and sometimes candy (Mami) is used to advertise technology!!!!I own a Monolithic phono stage--truly awesome piece of equipment. Great value for the money (as is everythi... | |
| What is the best 6 piece sub/sat system under 2k? Look in eBay under Proton. Legacy audio is clearing their Proton five channel amp and preamp processor for $495. Decent. Also Wharfedale Diamonds SE 7.2 are being discontinued. Michaura is a speaker name that's been buzzing in HD and the Asylm. | |
| New Analog system. where to start? You know David, I was at an industrial trade show in Mexico and there was this tall, beautiful, curvaceous, dark skinned MAMI handing out technical literature. The Pop Tart ad you mentioned brought this memory back. I ended up having a date on my ... | |
| Cables "Burn In" Pbb, I understand your point on the last sentence of your post---I posted my response to Famaraca in Portuguese and it didn't get posted (I knew it wouldn't). Doesn't matter, I emailed it to him...What I am going to write you're not going to like ... | |
| New Analog system. where to start? If you want belt drive, Nrchy hits on the target w/ the SOTAs, both sonically and customer service. If you want DD, get a 1200 and do the mods.Don't fall for glass and partice board... | |
| Any experience with cryo'ed cables / IC'S ? I've been searching posts on this subject on several forums. I've read in the Asylum that people are sending their cables and interconnects for cryo treatment. It can be done for $10 a pound. Some guy sent his Absolute Power Cords and wrote that i... | |
| Argent Room Lenses? Sean, I heard Jahaira's setup when I went back home. Those things *are* ugly, but very effective. Personally, I think I can (and presently do) get effective room treatment w/out them. I am successfully combining good tasting decor with acoustic tr... | |
| Best DVD on a budget I have a JVC X45S. An absolutely outstanding player for the money. I run the audio through a Soundstream DAC and it is *very* nice. I just ordered a small $15 isolation transformer from eBay to plug this DVD and improve performance. If you want pr... | |
| The Big Boys vs. the Little Guys Bowbow, I have been purchasing Tice interconnects. George Tice is selling them direct at a BIG discount. I purchased two-1.5m pairs for $137.50 per pair. It's a *very* good interconnect. I wish I could afford a few more pairs... | |
| The Big Boys vs. the Little Guys Thorty, I looked up that stage3 website. Found it *very* interesting. Wonder how their phono cables sound... | |
| Best system for the budding audiophile? James, since you are starting, just about anything that is good high end will do. I have never had that kind of cash to throw in at once!Your statement saying "I have a large room 15' by 20' but can't be too fussy with placement" indicates two thi... | |
| Voodoo in Ann Arbor Sedond emailed someone from HD who lives in Detroit and gave us some names. We went to Almas & The Gramophone--and were treated right at both...Almas had Rotel & The Gramophone had B&K. I could easily tell the Rotel had better & mo... | |
| Any upgrades done on CAmbridge D500se? I second Sugarbrie on Power Cords. I replaced the stock cord on my Cambridge D300SE with an Absolute Power Cord and it made a big improvement, especially on bass response. | |
| Any scientific data on cable burn-in? Pbb, Sean had some of my cables cooked on his modified Mobie. I got them back less than a week ago and the difference is stunning. I know, because I had identical sets uncooked for comparison. Given all the Voodoo behind cables, it is a better dea... |
