| CA: Central Coast - San Luis Obispo County Just spotted your posting. I'm in S.L.O. County. We should check for interest in a Central Coast Audio club! Or at least have a listen to each others' systems. . .Danny | |
| SACD Multichannel player - $400 budget I'd consider the Oppo BDP-83 ($499 new). I have the DV-980H ($167), and am very happy with it. When I upgrade, I'll get a BDP-83. Good luck on your quest! | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Hey Nolitan, I have heard both the LFD and the Luxman. The LFD was driving Harbeth speakers and sounded rich and detailed. I remember hearing the texture of the strings in an orchestral piece. I only listened to the LFD once, at a dealer's house, ... | |

| recyling vinyl? I use them in the garden as a weed block around vegetables. Seriously. | |
| Verve Mini LP Reisues Thanks guys! Checked out obiland and found a few of the ones I was looking for. Great resource.Danny | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? I guess I spazzed and jumped the gun with the transformer. I'm not really savvy about wattage/voltage numbers and thought the higher wattage transformer would allow more headroom for the amp's fluctuations in power (I'm way out of my limits of und... | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? They sent me the Nissyo NDF-550 transformer. It's not what you descibed in your email (size of a bag of sugar), more like a box of tea (3X4X3.5) but heavier. And build quality of transformer does not match Luxman L505u. The fixed cord from the tra... | |
| Speakers for Luxman L 505 u I'm listening to mine through Vandersteen 2ce sigs. WONDERFUL! | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Wow! This thread sure morphed! Well I bought the sucker, and he's in my house hooked up to my Vandersteen 2ce sigs. It's all I had hoped for! Better resolution (than my Rotel receiver)without being harsh. More punch. "Fast" is the adjective that k... | |
| Headphone Amp for Work You might try the Headroom Total bit head. I Like mine with the Grado 325i and my Audio Technica ATH-A700s. Simple but very accurate volume control. | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Thank you all for your thoughts. I did contact On A Higher Note, and yes, I would have to use a transformer if I bought from them. Thanks AudioFeil; those are some important considerations. | |
| Luxman L505u . . . why not? Thanks guys!!Jaybo. Could you elaborate on this? Why, specifically, chould I give this more thought? | |
| What have you discovered while downsizing? Great thread--I never up-sized, so I can relate to the synergy concept, and totally agree with Mapman and CKorody. Room dynamics and speaker placement are areas for modification and are totally free! I wanted a Parasound Halo Universal disk player... | |
| slow, funky, groovin' laid back music OK, I got Cinematic Orchestra "Live at Royal Abert Hall" and "Every Day". This isn't quite what I had in mind, but it's beautiful, and lovely late night listening. I got a remixed CD of theirs as well, which is very good. Nightmares on Wax "Smoker... |
