| Berkeley Audio Design Alpha DAC Owners? Thanks for your responses. The review in the latest TAS was very positive as well. Unfortunately, there is no dealer in my area where I can hear one. | |
| Blu-Spec CDs Jax2,I posted that only because this thread seemed to be going in another direction from the original post.So far, seems I'm the only one who's posted that actually owns one of these. I'm anxiously awaiting delivery of a Blu-spec version of "Kind ... | |

| The Kind Leading the Blind May I add that my dealer in Minneapolis is also visually challenged? He's very knowledgeable and carries some great lines. Always enjoy my visits to Audio Perfection. | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? A few years back I had a set of Virtual Dynamics Revelation bi-wire speaker cables. You will need Tarzan to come over to help wrestle the gargantuan pythons into submission! Broke a speaker terminal first time I tried them. Can get frustrating.XLR... | |

| Recommended CD's for classical good recording ? If you're looking for specific recommendations perhaps a time period or composers names would be helpful. | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? John,You're right, I may have over reacted a bit. When I think $15k, I think SOTA CDP, pre-amp, amp or very nice speakers not wire. But hey, that's just my bias! | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? I rarely criticize the buying decisions of others because, frankly, it's none of my business what someone else does with their money. It's not quite fair of me to accuse this person of bias either. It just seemed like there was potential for bias ... |
