| An observation about "Modern" classical music. I think what modern classical music is missing is what Mozart did best. He composed the music which on the surface seems simple, but under the surface was complex. In other words, he met the listener where the listener was at (other composers did ... | |
| Listening Nirvana in Tiny Hideaway Room I had fun with my 10x12 or so listening room, but it turned into an anal nightmare. All I did was obsess over room treatment and placement. If you are serious I would do it (it's worth having a dedicated listening room), but get in touch with Rive... | |
| SACD Firmware issues? Haven't noticed either to be the case with my Sony XA-777esRob | |
| Analogue volume control on CDP jh2os, yes Cary 308T does. | |
| Grounding issue or failing cartridge? I would double check the interconnects that plug directly into the cartridge for a possible short. They tend to be pretty fragile. I wouldn't imagine your cartridge would only last 6 months. They usually take about 1-2 months just to break in. Rob | |
| SCD XA-9000 ES or DVP-9000ES w/modwright level III I second the Modwright. You'll get much better results per dollar than getting a new stock player. Rob | |

| Von Schweikert VR4JR & Tube Amp??? Pawlowski6123, I also had my VR4jr in a 10 x 12 or 10 x 10 or something close, and first of all I feel your pain. Be careful not to over dampen the room. but I know it is necessary to absorb more than a typical room otherwise the high frequencies ... | |
| CD...then the SACD...all over again I get my SACDs at Fry's electronics. There are a few that are above $20, but most of the ones I get are $17, which is $1-2 above a redbook CD. I just bought a telarc for $17 yesterday. Rob | |
| Multi-channel vs 2 channel SACD; difference? Matchstickmen, I only listen in 2 channel as well. I recently bought a Sony XA777ES (modded) for a very reasonable price, and its performance was good enough to justify the purchase just for that. If SACD starts to go away (it's all speculation ri... | |
| Learning about my room and my sound.. Cello, I'd put my money on them if your residence is going to be somewhat permanant. I tend to move a lot (i rent), so I bought the CARA software and can do the best I can on my own. Rob | |
| What's a Good Match?/ sacd/cd player I think he would have to listen to the Jolida. It is a terrific CD player for it's price; however, I think the modded Sony will take Red Book to a whole new level. But it is a different sound. Rob | |
| How would you desribe Von Schweiket VR-4jr sound? Kevziek, Thank you for the support. Opalchip, Get some professional help soon. I'm worried about you. I do care. Rob | |
| How would you desribe Von Schweiket VR-4jr sound? Newbee, I was not offended at all. You may have used tact, but you did personally attack me. Your post said "You define yourself far more than you define others - your choice - ;(". It may be a passive aggressive way to attack rather than the stra... | |
| How would you desribe Von Schweiket VR-4jr sound? Newbee, I meant the truth as opposed to making stuff up. But that's just my opinion - I could be wrong. I wasn't getting into a philosophical discussion about truth; I thought that was obvious, but I guess I should have been more clear. Yes, I rev... |
