| Let's try this a different way then I love Maggie's, that being said, that is a long narrow room, indeed. Small monitors with a sub is a good recommendation. There are too many choices.....so get your self out to your local dealers and listen. | |
| Pink Floyd LPs Holes punched out and cut corners are over pressed and usually compromised pressings. They were either thrown out or sold for a big discount. As indicated above.....promos have white labels and stickers indicating as such......and yes, they sound ... | |
| How much am I missing with SL1200 mk2? I don't have any recent experience with a 1200. The last time I used one was as at college radio station 35 years ago.......but I would think that a WTRP would be a good change. You could even get a WTTT or classic at a decent price used. Forget t... | |

| CJ PV-2ar or PV-7 or ARC SP-6 for Klipsch Heresy? I'm not surprised that you have to use the tone controls set they way you do, as Herseys are extremely colored with a balance that leans towards the mid and upper mids. Nice speaker late at night and at low volumes but they fall apart when pushed ... | |
| Grado Statement Sonata 1 - bent stylus I think Soundsmith works on Grado's too. So, repair cost can be as cheap as $125 or more, if you want the upgrade. BTW their work is A+++++++.Hey, you broke it, you just don't know how. It happens. | |
| stereo preamp $2-5K suggestions You could do a lot worse than an Audible Illusion M3A, used less than $1200 or a new M3b...new $3500. | |
