| Which cartridge is the Imaging/soundstaging champ Jdolgin:I remember reading an article in Stereophile(91) with a rep from Keotsu and he said their cartridges were designed for Classical and Jazz genre's. Now this was a long time ago and now their are so many keotsu cartridges I'm sure some are s... | |
| Which cartridge is the Imaging/soundstaging champ What kind of music do you mostly listen to? In what areas is your system deficient? Not enough bass? Highs not there? You mention soundstage, play around with the posistioning of your speakers. Moving Coil or Moving magnet? There are alot of varia... | |
| Carver Silver Edition Speakers,Any upgrades These babies require ALOT of power for them to sound their best. I recommend at LEAST 400 watts a side. I used to own a pair and 250 a side was not enough. i used to love to crank Dirty Diana by MJ. These babies go deep into the sub area 18hz. and... | |
| Bypass preamp, better sound, yet fatiguing? THE IMPEDANCE ISSUE COULD BE BECAUSE YOU ARE USING A COMBINATION OF SS AND TUBES. SOMETIMES THIS DOES NOT WORK WELL. | |
| Other than the SOUND, what do you love the most? The first time I laid my eyes upon an Oracle Delphi I feel in love. It looked so far out there,like an oil rig in the North Sea.My first integrated amp was a Nikko 890 and I thought it was way cool looking at the power meter for each channel tack ... | |
| Bypass preamp, better sound, yet fatiguing? I have an Adcom 750 which allows me to listen in a passive mode. My Modwright Sony sounds very good in passive mode but I prefer listening to it with the pre amp active. Sounds more alive,more dynamic. The Sony sounds great in passive mode but I h... | |

| Need help choosing a power amp Another option is to modify your existing Adcom. www.musicaldesign.com does just this. I have had a modified original 555 Adcom in my system going on 20 years now and trust me it does not sound like the stock unit. For under a grand it would be br... | |
| Clever Little Clock - high-end audio insanity? I own TWO Tice power clocks and still use them both. IMS I hear a difference and when they have gone out and have had to be recharged they did the same thing when sent back. The clock's were cryogenicly treated as the treatment wears off over time... | |
| Stick with your stock cables ? Your PS audio Xstream statement has been burning in for how long? What I'm saying is the stock power cable that came with your mark levinson has to burn in just like the intergrated amp. It's something to think about. I'm sure it won't sound like ... | |
| Static in the balance knob, what can I do? I concur on not using WD-40. Not only will it do the job but it will attract dust,dirt and anything else airborne. A friend of mine who repairs screen doors and sliding glass windows made a living and put two kids thru college with people spraying... | |
| The "A" List Robert Plant would because of his Led Zepplin legacy. Bono because he is young and his venture into politics. Kieth Richard would make front page news too. What about Elton John? | |
