| Exposure 2010S2 CD vs Rega Apollo I have used the Rega Apollo in my second, and most used system, since its introduction 11 years ago. It has been a very durable player and the only repair was to replace the laser last year. The sound is very musical, a touch on the warm side, a... | |
| Quicken the burn in time for new speakers by using a cheaper SS amp? You can run your tube amp for as long as you need to run it. There is no hard and fast rule. For myself, I turn it on when I wish to listen and I turn it off when I am done listening for the day.Just make sure that your tube amp has plenty of cl... | |

| using large box dvd/cd/player as base for small tube amp You would be better off with a computer monitor stand like the one in the attached link.There are many types out there. Rich | |
| Choosing a Good Phono Pre for a Rega RP-1 with a Denon DL-110. That is quite the budget for your TT set-up. I am using a Schiit Mani in my set-up.My TT is a Stanton ST 150 with a Denon 103 cartridge. Price is a steal at $130. Made in the USA. This Mani makes my vinyl sound very musical. There is a Stereo... | |

| Second audio system in your house? 3 systems in a 2 bedroom apartment ... wrong person to ask. Go for the grand, second systems are the ones you can experiment with and have fun with.Rich | |
| The Beach Boys Two sayings come to mind ... the first is 'I guess you had to be there' and the second would be 'either you get it or you don't.' Leaving it at that though, would be dismissive and that would not be my intention.The comments that you have made ab... | |
| Just how great is Elvis Costello Hi pops;Granted these albums focus on the early, angry young man, but I still find EC's first three albums all from the late 70's to be his best ... 'My Aim is True', 'This Year's Model', and 'Armed Forces'. If you like these three albums, then "... | |
| Blue Ray Audio? I use a separate player for Blu-Ray Audio discs, a Panasonic BDT-500, and a separate player for SACDs, a SONY SCD 555ES.Feel pretty much the way mahler123 does about it.Rich | |
| Are Ohm-Walsh micros and 1000 series disrespected because of omni-directional design?? Hi SJ - It may just be that it is just plain difficult to find a dealer that handles Ohm speakers and to my memory, I have never seen a pair at one of the shows. And granted, I may be wrong on both counts. But for a speaker manufacturer that is ... | |
| Just how great is Elvis Costello I may kind of, sort of dissent here. Elvis Costello is pretty good, not sure about great. I own a lot of Elvis Costello music (19 of his first 21 albums ... did not go for Juliet Letters or il Sogno) and yet when I want to listen to EC, I alway... | |
| Rega, Pro-ject, Music Hall, NEED help Until the new Technics 1200 is released later this year, I would go with a Stanton ST150 at $600. Yes, I know it is a DJ table, but I have been using one happily in my main system for the last year. You will need to swap out the cartridge (go in... | |
| New Member Needs Help So here comes the big question ... what is your budget for replacing the preamp/ amp/ and player? If you are considering new, I believe that you are looking at 3 to 4k for an integrated and CD player from companies like Creek or Rega. If you lik... | |
| Prima luna Pro Logue intergrated amp.... Will it make my Martin Logan's sing? I have had the Prima Luna PL2 integrated and PL5 power amp for the last 10 years. These amps are truly wonderful ... great detail, musical, just a touch of warmth, easy to tube roll. But they do run out of steam. When I playback a movie (blu-ra... |
