| how do you determine what to upgrade next? You like your system "quite a bit." Why not just inve$t your limited fund$ in more LP's, rather than critically focusing on small nuances of sound reproduction? Just in-joy more music!I'm a firm believer in investing in the music- isn't this what ... | |
| Can we list the better labels? Chesky? Telarc? Three Blind Mice (aka TBM) | |
| power amplifiers with ICEpower module Question- Where does JO4 technology (used in highly regarded Goldmund amps) fit into great amp design? Stellavox & Job amps are reasonably priced, using the same JOB4 technology. I own the Stellavox PW-1 monos. They sound fantastic, weigh litt... | |
| How about an Audiogon poll for 2004? Categories? Ben-Sounds great. I think Tvad's phrasing of "favorite" is more accurate.An interesting poll for me would ask: "Favorite CD or LP song to demo speakers with?" | |

| Rowland 201's vs. Model 10 Thnaks Kcleveland. That's exactly what I was looking for. | |
| Focus Audio 688's I own a pair of 688s and enjoy them immensely. Theyre eerily three-dimensional. To my amazement, they work well with all types of music (jazz, world, classical & rock), and engage me through soft and loud passages, solo & complex. I've n... |
