| 12AT7 tubes I'm not all that familiar with 12AT7 types, but one not previously mentioned is the Sylvania Gold Brand 6201. I use a pair of these in my Lector CDP 0.6T and they work very well for that application although I've not made any comparisons between S... | |

| Tivoli Radio??? I had a Tivoli Model One for a while and was underwhelmed with the sound so I gave it away to my seven year old nephew. A fifteen year old KLH 100 made by Kyocera I use in my kitchen is much better. I do like the PAL model as it is portable and mo... | |
| Where do you find new music? KCRW 89.9 FM in Santa Monica, my local college/NPR station. Eclectic music programming that frequently introduces new performers long before the mainstream even hears of them. The 6/26/05 New York Times Magazine has an article about Nic Harcourt, ... | |
| Spendor S3/5 Owners I'm using the one post stand. The three or four post stands may be a better choice, albeit at a higher price of course. If you don't have the opportunity to make a comparison you might try to solicit an opinion from a dealer or distributor as to t... | |

They are smooth, refined, musical and nicely detailed, not edgy and bright like some silver cables are reputed to be. A definite improvement over the ... | |
| What to do with an Audio Note P2 SE? I've been using an Audio Note P2 SE myself for the past few years along with an Audio Note M1 preamp. This is essentially the same combination found in the Audio Note Soro integrated amp. I haven't compared the M1 to the M2, but the M2 is reputed ... |
