| Which adcom sounds best? My gift to myself when I got divorced in 1990 was a system that consisted of an Adcom 545 amp, Adcom GTP 500 II preamp/ tuner, KEF Q55 speakers, and a Magnavox CD630 cd player. These Adcom products were the second generation of their components, w... | |

| Rega Apollo - DAC / Player to beat it I feel that way about my 6 year old Rega Apollo, a $1000 product (paid $1000). I also feel that way about my 9 year old Musical Fidelity CD PRE 24, a preamp/ cd player that was a $3000 product (paid $1400 when discontinued). Both really sweet CD p... | |
| Is built in phono preamp usually best way to go? There was a time when all preamps, receivers, and integrated amps had built in phono sections and these conversations just didn't occur. You already pulled the trigger and purchased the Acoustech. I would suggest letting your ears decide. | |
| Need Amp advise for Totem MITE I just like this amp at $200 or so ... Emotiva mini-X a-100 . As long as you stick to a single source, you get a 50 wpc power amp with a volume control. Rich | |
| Need Amp advise for Totem MITE Placement is key with the Mites.I used the Mites with tubes (Prima Luna) and solid state (Outlaw) and they sounded fine. The placement was compromised and I never got all I could out of them. I used QED Silver Anniversary for speaker cables, Audio... | |
| What is a really good sounding low volume system?? I use a PL2 with Ascend Acoustic Sierra Monitors. Sounds very good at low volumes. Rega RS1 are good speakers at low volumes, as well. You will get quality sound, just not all the audio niceties. I am president of my coop with a spouse who can hea... | |
| small speakers for small room As I said above, the Rega bookshelf speaker was designed to be placed right against the wall. Once you get comfortable with the speaker, you will be surprised with the amount of real bass that it delivers. The Rega bookshelf used to get a decent a... | |
| Speakers for Outlaw RR2150? I have had the RR2150 since it came out almost 8 years ago. For the price, it is a powerful and clean sounding amplifier that also offers a very good FM tuner. Your buddy likes 70's music, which I am taking to be in the range from progressive rock... | |
| Mary Chapin Carpenter and Shawn Colvin Shawn Colvin, Rosanne Cash, and Mary Chapin Carpenter turned up quite a bit at shows 20 years back. I saw some combination of the three several times at the Bottom Line in NYC, usually at a songwriters' show called, 'In Their Own Words.' Good chem... | |
| Mary Chapin Carpenter and Shawn Colvin 20 years back at a Bob Dylan Tribute Concert, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Shawn Colvin, and Rosanne Cash came together to perform You Ain't Goin' Nowhere . These gals can do no wrong.Rich | |
| small speakers for small room I wonder if any of the responders have used a room that size as both a bedroom and a listening space. My master bedroom was 2.4M X 3M (8' X 10') for 5 years. Other than a queen sized bed, a nightstand, and a tall bookcase tucked in the corner, the... | |
| Does your system sound better than most demo's? I remember a Stereophile show at the NY Hilton that I attended about 8 years ago. One of the demonstration rooms was sponsored by a well known NYC dealer and was featuring components from Musical Fidelity, Thiel, and Focal among others. The presen... |
