Whats the krell sound?
Nate, glad to hear that the Krell arrived safely. Sorry I missed the chance to get a listen yesterday, I got your email Friday morning, and your phone message late last night when we got home from dinner.I tried to be careful not to say that there... 
Whats the krell sound?
I've owned two Krell’s, currently a FPB200 and previously a KAV300i. The 300i didn't really do much for me, having tried it in a couple different setups it was ultimately replaced with a CJ tubed integrated, the CAV50, which blew it away sonically... 
Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have
Had a Honda CR500 Moto-X before leaving blighty for the US of A. Best fun riding off-road, everyone going round in the same direction most of the time. 
Who R U?
I'm a 41 year old male and recently led an expedition to the Majal region in north-eastern Tibet in search of the near-extinct 3-toed albino mountain lion. The expedition was abandoned after the team doctor was savagely attacked by a wounded Sherp...

Vinyl or wait for the new stuff??
This doesn't really move the conversation on much, just to say that I have a CD front end that retails for around $5000 and a Universal disc player that sold for $1200. This weekend a picked up a scratchy dirt-bag of a TT, an original Rega Planar ... 
Should there only be one company making gear?
All of you (you know who you are)with the exception of Albert, should be looking out your windows and expecting a van to pull up at any moment. You know the one, two guys in white coats jump out and haul your sorry asses off to the nearest 'facili... 
Woofer dust cap repair advice, HELP
Nate,You need two things, one is a quick fix, the other is more long term, I have both.1 - Scotch packaging tape is more adhesive than masking tape and works great. Cut a small piece and make sure your fingers do not come into contact with the adh... 
Funniest sales pitch
I'm selling my entire Vinyl collection, all pre 1980, scratched and warped but in otherwise excellent condition. Selling to get back into 8 track. 
Funniest sales pitch
I'm selling my entire collection of 200 CD's because I can't figure out how to get that cellophane wrapper off any of them. 
The Best Inexpensive Wines Available Now
Wolf Blass - either the Cabernet or Shiraz - fine Australian wines, the Shiraz is full bodied without the 'sweetness' that you find in the cheaper versions. Tastes like a $40 wine for $12.00 
I need help with my room
PS...we didn't have time to try the Tact extensively in correction mode - we switched in a couple of stock correction curves but didn't spend any time trying to massage them into usable curves. My limited experience with the Tact is that it takes ... 
I need help with my room
Sean, i was worried about getting Nate onto the measurement bandwagon and leading him on a downward spiral - but I made him do it anyway!!!(kidding).I think if things are maintained in a certain context then there will be no permanent damage done.... 
I need help with my room
I hope Nate doesn't mind me posting this, I don't want to 'steal his thunder' but there are some points that need to be added to help understand the measurements that we took in his room.Firstly, I think it takes a brave person to look at a freque... 
Any DAC better than the MF A324 Upsampler?
Thanks Krell Man, my digital cable is the MIT Reference, sold for $350.00 I did notice some improvement when I went to the MIT from a lower cost cable, so perhaps going a few more rungs up the cable ladder might help - as you suggest.I haven't tri...
