Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts
Thanks guys ^^Erik’s first post got me interested in the miniDSP, which I’ve heard of many times but never really followed up with any research. I’m not sure it would be a fit for my system, though it sure as heck sounds tempting. I do a fair amou... 
Music Hall MMF 9.3 upgrades
Oracle make a good upgrade kit for the 9cc Evo.I have it on my MMF-11, it’s a small attachment that’s easy to install and dampens vibrations from the armwand.I paid around $170 with shipping.

A tubed integrated amp for Joseph Audio Pulsars?
I’m also looking for a good tubed integrated amp but for a different speaker.I heard the Synthesis A100T that @audiotroy mentions and it’s a fantastic amp. I’ve owned and heard a lot of gear over the years yet can’t recall another component that i...

Is it all worth it?
After 35+ years in the hobby and endless cycles of buy...buy...buy...then dump it all, I've finally come to understand how my mind works in this regard. The more money you spend the higher the level of expectation. Beyond a certain financial point... 
Review: Magnepan MG-3.6r Speaker
Hi Maggiefan8This is quite an old thread you've resurrected here, lol.If you read the initial post you'll note that I used the Maggies with amps plenty capable of providing the requisite amount of power - Krell and Perreaux among others. I also bo...

Any Aesthetix Calypso VS Cary SLP-05 comparison?
There's a simple gain mod for the Calypso which in my system cured the noise problem. It's just flicking a couple of circuit board switches if I remember, takes but a minute to do. Since then the unit has been dead quiet into my 106db speakers.Occ... 
Audio Aero Capitole MK2 CD Puck.
The importer has a replacement puck kit that you can buy for about $130Instead of a cone-shaped spindle it has a non-tapered shaft of about a half inch diameter. The new puck then locates snuggly onto the shaft eliminating any lateral movement whe... 
Anyone using the Lyngdorf TDA2200?
I use mine with a 2+2 horn system. It replaced an Aesthetix Calypso preamp and a Gallo Ref 3 subwoofer amp and XO. I run my CD player into the analog inputs rather than use the TDAi as a DAC, but it's close either way. I could sell my CD (Aero Cap...
