Are your used items selling?
Porschecab pretty much nailed the answer to your question, just another suggestion, adding a picture of what you are selling sells it pretty quickly also. Audiogon has made it pretty darn easy to be able to post a picture on your add, all you need... 
Potential problem with sale.
Here's a slightly different scenario but nonetheless on the same subject.I recently sold my Rel Sub here on Audiogon, I was paid rather quickly so I took the sub off my system, packed it well and sent it out to buyer.The next day after he received... 
Preamp Deal of the Century
Tok20000I really don't know if what Mick used was a potentiometer or not, but if I'm not mistaken all of the Supratek preamps has an output level adjustment in one form or another.It's just that on mine Mick incorporated it on both RCA and XLR out... 
Dynaudio Contour 1.3SE brightness?
I don't have a 1.3 SE but a 1.3 MK II, I don't know how much power the Musical Fidelity puts out but remember the 1.3 SEs like all Dynaudio speakers needs lots of clean power to sound their best. If you are hearing sibilance it could either be lac... 
Speakers that are matched well with Krell
Dynaudio Contour or higher will be good. 
Preamp Deal of the Century
My Supratek Chardonay is fitted with a balanced output and it works just fine, it even came with an output level adjustment knob so I was able to fine tune it with the input of my amp. The output level works on both single ended and balanced output. 
Sibilance how do I get rid of it?
Dynaudio are ruthlessly revealing speakers,I don't think they are bright, if you hear sibilance from them the problem is either the room or your upstream components, cables included. In your case it sounds like your power is really the culprit fol... 
Help, new amp causing "buzzing" in speakers
Try using a cheater plug, most of the time that is the cause of the hum. 
Preamp Deal of the Century
Well before the Syrah and the Plinius I used to have a Sonic Frontiers Line 2SE and a Krell FPB 200. I sold both of them when my Chardonay arrived. Comparing the two preamps was a little hard since both preamps were used on different amplifiers, g... 
Preamp Deal of the Century
Hi Betcha,I am using my Chardonay with a Plinius SA-250 MK IV right now and it's sounds great. I have to admit I was a bit sceptical initially because of the input/output impedance factor, but it turns out to be a great match. The Plinius has a 47... 
Quiet cooling fans for audiogear
I second Porschecab on the ELAN ZFan2, I have one on my Plinius amp and it really helps get the temperature down when it's running on Class A mode. I bought mine from a local store, Magnolia Hifi here in the Seattle area. 
Enacoms for bright speakers?
I remember when I had my Thiel 3.6 back then that the Bybee Ultra speaker filters help with Zing, and I never really knew how well it was helping the system until I took it off line. Not sure about the Enacom but I know the bybees work on that par... 
Component video cable?
I was using the Audioquest YIQ2 before, and prior to that Monster Cable M1000i, now I'm using three Audio Magic Sceptor Digital/Video Cables (discontinued model, being sold by HCM audio) and let me tell you the difference from the prior two set of... 
Preamp Deal of the Century
Hi Bwhite, I had all BDR III cones sitting on BDR"those things IV's" on the Chardonay. You're right to much III's sounds a little too blurry in the upper mids,using a combination seems to even them out a bit but not enough. Just now I substituted ... 
Speakers for Rock
Rotel or B&K seperates? I guess at that price range I would recommend either the Monitor Audio Silver or Gold series or maybe the NHT 2.5i or higher.These speakers are great on fast phased R&R music, and will all play loud given you provid...
