"I am there" vs. "They are here"
If she's a great looker, I'd be crawlin on her too !!At that point, I'd "be there" !!They'd probably throw me "off the stage" !! At that moment, I'd be "outta there" !!!! 
"I am there" vs. "They are here"
Zaikes (yikes) very well worded ! You sound like an English major ! (no pun intended)I catch your drift about the recording "standardization".This post is very interesting because it is exactly what we deal with all the time, the relaxing emotiona... 
"I am there" vs. "They are here"
Wow, what a post Zaikesman! I read it three times.I agree a "standardized" recording on our LP's and CD's would really help, but then this hobby would be too easy !Unfortunately we must split decisions with how we like to percieve our "sound".My s... 
Correlation: Money and Good Sound
My experience showed me that mixing and matching certain older and newer components (some were big bucks, others not) correlated to my desired sound without going totally broke.I have listened to many well-matched, top-flight systems over the year... 
EMM Transport V. Meitner Phillip Transport
As long as another "better" Dac doesn't come out, maybe this thread can be arrested !Gets very expensive in this arena, and I'm sure the EMM gear is pretty up to snuff. 
Ohm question
Sonics-wise, it wouldn't be too good (except if yer stackin Marshalls) !!My guess on the amp-watt thing they would be split in half.There was a post the other day about stacking Dahlquist DQ-10's, didn't look too promising though.It was done with ... 
Audio Aero Capitole MKI vs. MKII
Sorry for the side-track: Hi Mejames, you have one serious butt system !! Your suggestion for a Prima player is dead-on, esp. with a good pre like a First Sound, makes more sense "that way". 
Plinius 9200 and power conditioning
Try calling Galen Carol at GC Audio in Texas. 
Importing used Audio equipment to Canada
I like the word "Declare" loosely termed, almost sounds like gas prices every weekend at the pumps. 
Funniest sales pitch
Way too much power (for my inefficient speakers, ha).........so I decided to go single-ended !! 
Poor man's reference DAC
Good luck Bryanhod, You might need it, the only way you'll get lucky is if a dealer has a demo or one from a show. A used one from a consumer might be a while, they're still pretty new and unheard of (I could be wrong though) I'm gonna be patient ... 
Poor man's reference DAC
I read that review in 6moons, found it very interesting.They claimed the player sounds better than the stand-alone Dac with a transport.I was going to post a thread on this player asking if anyone has heard it, don't have to now !Let us know how i... 
Poor man's reference DAC
Oxia, Funny you mentioned, I looked for a Bidat and agree wholeheartedly.They were more readily available during the on-slaught of hurrying digital technology. The unfortunate part is NOW a lot of folks realize just how great AND far ahead of thei... 
Poor man's reference DAC
Panny, You'd have to contact Jerry, he'd be better qualified to giving you a quote on your model. 
B&K Amp Modifications ??
Eight months later, ya never know when your old thread pops back up to the surface !! I never heard of the PAC version of the ST-140 Bob, you might want to call B&K and talk to Jerry the tech man, nice guy, he'd probably be able to tell you mo...
