| Small balanced monoblocks I never thought I would say this, but I would suggest you listen to the Classe CAM-350 Monoblocks. New they are $7k, but I'm sure with either dealer discounting or perhaps a demo/used pair would fit your budget. They are the perfect size, not too ... | |
| Sonic Frontiers Phono 1 vs. BAT Vkp5 I would suggest you don't look at it in terms of "which is better", but you will need to look at the various differences between the units and which one will work for you. Each has it's own sonic signature and good/bad points that I believe you wi... | |
| "New" Audio Physic Virgo I just listened to a pair today for the first time at my local dealer. I had been waiting a long time to audition them after hearing a lot of good things about them. I honestly don't remember the last time I've really heard music without hearing t... | |
| What is causing the hum? Also make sure you're not using Halogen lights on the same circuit. My Rotel RB-1090 hummed so loud I thought it was going to take off. I ended up tracing the problem not to a ground loop, but by a Halogen light I was using in the room. I could tu... | |
| Shipping: A lesson learned Seems very pricey for $115 and only 150 miles. That's almost a buck a mile. I agree about driving to pick them up yourself, or you could have rented a Minivan for less if they wouldn't fit in your car and still saved a fortune.I handle a LOT of sh... | |
| Power cord for Linn Classik Fatparrot- (grin) Actually, it was just a figure of speech. I should have said I leave it in the box for when I sell it. Thanks for the advice though. | |
| Power cord for Linn Classik Rsuminsby - Thanks a lot!!! That it just what I've been looking for. I'll stop by the Linn dealer tomorrow and inquire about it. | |
| Power cord for Linn Classik I also own a Linn Classik hooked up to a pair of Tyler Reference Monitors. I haven't done much with it in terms of replacing cables yet (still using the factory speaker cables as well.)However, I always throw away those pre-molded cheap 18 gauge I... | |
| good silver IC's to audition? I've tried a couple of cables from various manufacturers before finally settling on Granite Audio #470 interconnects with WBT topline connectors. I run them completely everywhere in my system with amazing results. I'd recommend you audition a pair... | |
| unmarked HDCD's Yes. I have several HDCD CD's that are unmarked, but what you really want to do is check out www.hdcd.com. They list all of the CD's available in HDCD encoding. Good luck. | |
| Used Adcom Gfp -565 Good deal IMHO, yes. It's an excellent pre-amp for under $400. The unit is dead quiet - and I mean quiet! It has an excellent phono preamp as well (Not sure if you are into analog, I am.) I think you made an excellent choice as it's tough to beat for the mo... |
