| Most enduring audio purchase My BAT VK-3i preamp. It's been with me for 17 years through changes in speakers, power amps, interconnects, speaker cables, and power cords. | |

| EdenSound Audio - professional audio craftsman I’ve worked with Dan over the years with great success. His Terrastone platforms are first rate, and it's a pleasure to do business with him. | |
| Albert Von Schweikert Has Passed Away A great loss to the audio community. What does this mean to the future of the company? | |

| Jazz for someone who doesn't like jazz. I think you should try some old school hard bop first. Start with "Kind of Blue" by Miles Davis. Then, check out "Adam's Apple" by Wayne Shorter. Finally, listen to "Slow Drag" by Donald Byrd. These are very accessible albums, and should give you ... | |
| Youngsters these days. Ah, baloney! I still like my CDs and having a physical product to hold in my hands and own. With streaming, you don't own, you rent. Maybe I'm a Luddite, but I still like a quality analog FM tuner as well as a 2 channel set up with separate compon... | |
| Joseph Audio Pulsars with REL Sub or Perspectives in 11x11 Room? I suggest that you give Jeff Joseph a call at (800) 474-4434 to get his opinion. Jeff is a great guy and, since he designed the speakers, there's probably nobody better qualified than him to give you the lowdown for your situation. | |
| Joseph Audio Pulsars with REL Sub or Perspectives in 11x11 Room? I've got a 10x9x8 room, and am using JA Pulsars on Sound Anchors stands with a JL Audio e110 subwoofer. Jeff Joseph set up the speakers in my room personally. When I asked him whether the Perspectives would be a better fit, he was adamant that the... | |
| What makes a 20A IEC rated for 20 amps? I have a 20A power cord that I am now using with a relatively new 15A Power amp. I'm using a Voodoo Cable IEC adapter, and it works great. No loss in performance, and reasonably priced. They make a 15A and a 20A adapter. https://voodoocable.net/pr... | |
| High Quality XLR IC's For My System @lalitk ... No, I haven't tried the power cords, but intend to do so at some point.@teeshot ... AE got me off of the expensive cable merry-go-round, so resale is not an issue for me. In fact, with a 45 day trial period, there's really no down sid... | |
| High Quality XLR IC's For My System I concur about Audio Envy. I'm using their O'Nestian 4:4 XLR ICs between my amp and preamp, and they sound awesome ... totally blow away the Cardas GR ICs they replaced. The sound is evenly balanced through the sound spectrum. If you're looking fo... | |
| Bit the Bullet ... Don Sachs Model 2 Preamp @scothurwitz ... I returned the DS preamp because it had suffered damage in transit and the wait in the queue was too long. Nice sounding preamp, but there wasn't a night and day difference between the DS and my BAT tube preamp. So, I kept the BAT... | |
| 2020 Rock-N-Roll Hall Of Fame Inductees With the exception of the Doobies and T-Rex, I generally have no use for the other inductees. The fact that Depeche Mode beat out Judas Priest and Motorhead is a high crime of immense musical proportions. | |
| Moving cables around killed dynamics for days anyone else experience this? I still fail to see what this ludicrous colloquy has to do with the topic of this thread. It has degenerated into ad hominem attacks, which have no place in this forum. |
