| Audiophiles are older than dirt Butch wax was sticky stuff that you used to keep your flat-top standing tall! | |
| OSX SNOW LEOPARD - Improvement to iTunes Thank you for your response Ballan - if I upgrade to Snow Leopard I will definitely post my thoughts regarding improvements - or lack thereof. | |
| OSX SNOW LEOPARD - Improvement to iTunes Ballan: So you downloaded Snow and discerned an improvement? I don't want to make the change for improvements that are never used in my Mac (it is only for iTunes and Safari). Wonder why Apple doesn't "brag" about an improvement to iTunes???? | |
| Music you HATE the most but once you LOVED it Maybe we just "grow out" of certain music genres. I used to love the Oldies but Goodies - grew up with them - but now, even though there is a ton of them in my library, they rarely get listened to. Now it is some Classical (which I "hated" growing... | |
| What's the best software for Referencing your No. 3 - I got virtually all of my artwork for iTunes from Google Images. Quite often you get several options for the same album cover. Occasionally I got a good one from freecover.com (I think there was a dash in there somewhere b... | |
| Music vs. Components I can't help but listen to the components maybe because I love my gear. Not so with the headset, that is all about the music. With the gear, one track sounds great, another, not so great so my mind is constantly wondering what improvements could o... | |
| Is Krell onto something? It is interesting that in another recent thread on Audiogon regarding the use of center channels I seem to recall that a number of the contributors have abandoned their center channel altogether with the possible exception of DVDs in HT in favor o... | |
| Magnepan observations. Energizer that was a good commercial for Maggies. My first pair was the 3.6s but sold those and got a deal on a pair of 20.1s and never looked back. My room is plenty big enough 35' X 16' (actually an irregular width) and after adding a modified M... | |
| M2Tech HiFace - using it? Like it? One other bit of advice - If you order John Kenny's recommended battery charger (3.0A version) from Batteryspace.com be sure you also order the Wadia Plug to 2.1 MM barrel plug adapter. Otherwise you get just the Wadia and alligator clips, neither... | |
| M2Tech HiFace - using it? Like it? Just got the modified HiFace back from John Kenny - he has proven beyond a doubt the notion that cleaner power provides cleaner sound. Using a couple of books to prop it up, I plugged the Hiface (Kenny's box style) directly into the computer and t... | |
| We Need An Audiophile TV Channel I didn't think the link was funny at all. Moving on . . . A lot of people might enjoy watching an audiophile channel but not so sure many viewers would indulge. I think it is like that show where the Dad and his sons build motorcyles. I enjoyed so... | |
| Moving from the Magnepan 3.6 to the 20.1 I moved "up" from the 3.6s to the 20.1s and like James63, I noticed way better bass and an overall fuller sound. They were purchased used for about $8,000 and I have never regretted the move. Your room should be plenty big enough to let them perfo... | |
| M2Tech hiFace192 + Theta Gen Va synergy? It certainly did enhance my system from the first note. (Krell HTS 7.1 pre/pro) In particular, the bass sounded tighter to me. Now it has gone back to Ireland for some modifications which are essentially to drive the hiface with two small batterie... | |
| Maggies I drive my 20.1s with Krell fpb 350 monos so they give me 700 watts per speaker at 4 ohms. I love the set-up but would also consider Brystons if given the opportunity. Congratulations on a great purchase. BTW, WAF is low here too but the expensive... | |
| Confusion on Toslink Pgambon: I have utilized a 30' run of Toslink from my Mac Pro to the Processor and could not tell any difference between it and the same length of SPDIF digital cable. Only after installing an M2Tech Hiface did the SPDIF sound better (way better).... |
