| Best Keith Jarrett records Jasmine is wonderful! Some of the most emotionally beautiful music I've heard. | |
| Ultralinear vs. Triode vs. SET All great information, but not all of it true for all SETs. I love my speakers (87dB) and did not wish to give them up, but did wish to try a true SET. Thankfully, Audio Mirror 45 Watt SET amps are true SETs, yet very powerful, and not lacking fre... | |
| Ultralinear vs. Triode vs. SET If your Cronus already provides enough power for you (55 watts?) and you wish to try SET, get Audio Mirror 45 watt SET monoblocks. Nearly the same power as your Cronus, but SET! Glorious amps. | |
| WLM Diva Monitor -- Personal Experience? Northern3light - Have you tried this method for running them in: wire them out of phase with one another, put them together face to face, cover them with a heavy blanket, and then turn up the volume. I've never needed to try this, but I've read th... | |
| Best Keith Jarrett records WARNING - Don't buy too many at once if you are sensitive to performers moaning unmusically on their recordings. By unmisically I mean nowhere near the key they're playing nor in time of the music. Just random, dissonent vocal moaning. It adds no ... | |
| Is there better amp for bass then Cary Rocket 88 +1 to add a sub (or two). I did perceive somewhat more bass when I swapped tubes in my amp (not Cary), but would agree that, in general, if you want more bass, and if you already have a decent modern amp, change speakers or add a sub. Your bass an... | |

| How does one get off the merry-go-round? Drubin - Unfortunately, no. My dilemma is this: I often pine for listening to my system, but cannot due to restraints or conditions (not home, at work, at home but occupied on line with business, etc.) It is at these times I'll seek out audio rela... | |
| Best Cables for Atma-Sphere MA-1 MP-1 combination I suggest you check out WyWires. They will be the live/playback partner with Atma and VMPS for T.H.E. Show/CES 2011 Las Vegas. I don't have Atma gear but I do have Alex's ICs (RCA). I found them to offer the most clean and clear sound without anom... | |
| How does one get off the merry-go-round? Two simple rules ...1. Stop ALL reading of audio gear. No more audio mags or audio internet. Switch to 0% reading and 100% listening. You still wish to read something related to audio? Then stick only to music threads - no gear threads - just musi... | |
