| My music sounds brighter I suspect it's the amp. It may need servicing since it is 20 years old. | |
| Which Nakamichi to choose? The Tandberg TCD910 would be great but they are rare. What about the 3004?https://www.ebay.com/itm/Tandberg-3004-Vintage-Cassette-Deck-Near-Mint-Condition-for-parts/123311638...Aiwa also made some good decks I hear. | |

| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 The problem you are describing is an issue we now see frequently on the original DNA-1 and DNA-0.5 amplifiers that are now over 25 years old. It is an issue that we no longer consider repairable. The problem is with the... | |
| Need cable to soften brightness just a little? But are they angled in enough echolane? | |

| Krell KSA100 vs Threshold 400A vs McCormack DNA 0.5 I would go with the Krell also. Another amp to consider though is a solid state Conrad Johnson if you don't mind single ended. I had one in the shop around 15 years ago and it sounded great. |
