Digital Amps - Your opinions and why so few?
Thanks for comments offered so far. I want to believe that a pair Carverpro zr1600 can sound better than a pair of Pass X600's, it's just difficult to digest, given their retail price difference. I'm not a hifi 'snob' and have no 'issues' with Car... 
No Audiophiles in Hollywood
Thanks Tubegroover, I read all of those cheap romance novels but I still don't know who he is.....he probably doesn't know who I am either, so what the heck!

Who is Fabio?...am I getting old again? 
Best Genesis Album - your opinions please.
I'm not surprised that Selling England BTP seems to be high on most peoples list, it's a sublime work that seems to capture the very best of the band. It's rare to find a recording where each track is of the highest standard, and I think that is w... 
Best Genesis Album - your opinions please.
Tvad, I was just thinking about this when your post appeared....I had Trick of the Tail, Selling England By The Pound and Duke....pretty close ehh! 
Freezer Cryoed Cables...
I live in Wisconsin, if I open the doors and windows in January I can cryo the whole friggin house....the cat...the wife...everything. Can't imagine how the wife would sound during and after the cryo treatment, think I'll give it a try....thanks R... 
No Audiophiles in Hollywood
Someone in the John Kerry camp spent his/her 2003 tax rebate on a nice turntable, which can be seen playing in the recent Kerry campaign ad spotlighting job losses under the Bush administration. When Interviewed, the guy, who turns out to be in th... 
Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables?
Sean, I hope you are still watching this thread, I had a quick question, which is just barely on topic!I'm doing an internal rewire on Maggie 3.6's and also replacing caps/inductors. I'm looking round for good hookup wire to replace the cheap crap... 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have
Nate, congratulations on the new bike. Are you going to transfer the shopping basket off the front of your old one, or does the new bike already have one fitted? 
Parasound - Pass Labs - VTL - Krell Amp Selection
Hmmm...some interesting thoughts and perspectives! I was a little dubious about the Parasounds, they seem almost too good to be true, given their competitive price. Tireguy emailed me since he uses the Parasound with his 3.6 with very good results... 
Material Specifications/Layout for AC line
Tim,If your circuit board is only 20' away from your system, you have the opportunity to run straight from the board into your monoblocks. I did this recently with a Krell, and it works great. I bought the parts for the CVH V4, including cryo'd ca... 
Review: Magnepan MG-3.6r Speaker
Thanks for your input Quadophile, and thanks for setting Nrchy straight on the Perreaux amp stand....don't these Krell guy's know anything!! (LOL). Maggies are an absolute work in progress, I'm still moving them around and trying different things,... 
Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables?
Sean, thanks again for sharing your expertise and also for taking the time and trouble to research the Goertz compatibility issues (potential issues). As a side, Goertz (Alpha Core) have received a bit of flack in another post here on Gon, not for... 
Review: Magnepan MG-3.6r Speaker
Jimburger, I know this isn't for everyone, but this past week or so I've been doing some basic upgrades to the speaker and crossover, and the results have been amazing. Bypassing the fuses and also bypassing the tweeter attenuator brought a signif... 
Design Criteria For External Crossover Box
Thanks Tim, I couldn't help myself, I received the Cardas binding posts from www.dedicatedaudio.com yesterday and just had to install them. The main motive was that it let me remove the shorting wires and use biwire cables with spades. It was a pa...
