New Joseph Audio Pulsar Graphene 2
Last year I bought Pearl's off this gentleman in Maryland. He switched to Devore's (The X or one of the Nines) because to him they had greater resolution/detail than the Pearl's. His musical "catalog" was vastly different than mine...mostly Female... 
Klipsch speaker choices
RIP to the eternal thread crapper JS!! 
JBL Studio 590
I had them shipped to my post office. A 4 Hour Window is better than what you would get with FEDEX or UPS.  I have a Fedex business account and they can show up anytime within a 12 hour period. Good luck with your delivery! 
JBL Studio 590
I ordered mine about 12 days ago. Just got a call yesterday telling me they would be showing up on Nov 8th.  I think they are travelling on the back of a giant tortoise.  
Universal disc players
That thread is almost 2 years old. He also says the TRANSPORT Mechanism (Not the laser assembly) WAS available then...22 months ago. (When OPPO was still in business....have since closed) Feel free to call and get updated info. You will have to bu... 
Universal disc players
AYRE Does NOT have Lasers available for the DX-5. This has been the case for many years now. Michael at Ayre who I have talked to MANY times in the past 4-5 years not only confirmed this BUT told me where I needed to go to find spare parts...which... 
Int Amp for Thiel CS 3.7
Ive got a spare KXR-Twenty Pre-Amp if anybody needs one. 
Joseph Audio dealers
David Lewis Audio near Philly carries Joseph. Tried dealing with him once but he lied in the first few minutes of our conversation so that was the end of him for me. 
Top vintage receivers vs. modern high-end equipment
New Accuphase Class A INT coming out in 2 months E-800...50 Watts into 8 Ohm 
Am I the only one who doesn’t love Harbeth P3esr?
Maybe try the ProAc 10 Tablette or Signature version if you can demo them. I heard a shootout between the "plain" 10 and Harbeth and hands down the Proac was more to my liking. More detail, treble, airy highs. (Im not a fan of bass) 
Final Retirement Amplifier-Class A-Upcoming Gryphon Essence Stereo vs Accuphase A75
New Accuphase E-800 (INT) coming out by the end of the year. Just something to consider. 5K-6K more expensive than the E-650 supposedly.  
Top vintage receivers vs. modern high-end equipment
The Yamaha "Natural Sound" Receivers from the 70's IMHO are the absolute worst receivers I have ever heard from a recognized brand name. Sony and Tandberg are next on my S*** List. 
Top vintage receivers vs. modern high-end equipment
The Pioneer 1980 or Marantz 2600 are nowhere near the BEST SOUNDING Receivers made by either company. Don’t be a knucklehead and think that the number of Watts = Best Sound/Performance. That’s ridiculous. The 80 Series Pioneers are inferior to the... 
Soulution 511 vs. Luxman m900
So your comment below isn't a personal attack?? "like the award collector on facebook here, a definite Luxman fan boy to say the least"Its not only an attack BUT its based on no factual basis. If your going to come at me you can surely expect to g... 
Amps I Like
ARC amps keep evolving as do most brands over time. The new 160M and S models don't sound like the prior 250/150/75 series. So there isn't only 2 flavors to ARC "House Sound" over the past 20 years or whatever time frame anybody cares to reference...
