| Help for girlfriend HT speaker system??? Gallo's are so small and unobtrusive that most anybody and any room can accept them. But I personally have always had great results with B&W's, as big or as small as you want to go. I use the Leisure Monitors for rears right now, and they soun... | |
| replacing Audio Research power chords Call Leonard at Audio Research (phone no. is on their website at audioresearch.com) and ask him. Probably no problem having someone do it for you, but some gear was built w/the integral power cord and ground essential to its operation and you scre... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MkII arrives soon Hi Ernie, since you've already tried a Harmonic Tech interconnect, buy one of the AC-11 powercords for approx $100. I'm using that on my EMC-1 and LOVE it! My EMC-1 is so pleasing as is that I don't think I will invest in the DAC upgrade, in case ... | |
| Best Mac tube FM tuner: MR67 or MR71?? I recently bought a MR67 on eBay for around $700 and think it sounds incredibly good; I have compared it to Meridian 208 (early 90's), Fanfare FT1A (6 mos old), MD 102 (1 yr old), Marantz 120 and 2110 (mid 70's), and Scott 350B (early 60's) and fi... | |
| Dogs who love music My dog literally howls/screams, whether in pain or ecstasy or empathy or trying to make her own music, I can't tell, whenever any recording w/harmonica comes on at home or in the car. Bob Dylan songs really KILL her, I am hoping she loves the soun... | |
| Spkr cables for ARC VT100MK2 I use Transparent Reference w/my ARC VT100 MKIII and Genesis 500's and think it a great match. However, I have recently changed all my Transparent Ref and Ultra XL interconnects for Ensemble Dynaflux and am seriously considering changing the speak... | |
| Who pays for busted stuff? Hi Jeff, I was recently in an identical situation. I bought a Nak Dragon here on Audiogon, it arrived in perfect cosmetic shape, no obvious damage to the box (like yours, mine was shipped in the original box w/original packing material), but when ... | |
| Which Rack Is Better? Everyone--check out the Sistrum rack by Starsound Technologies (email me for Robert's phone no. in Ohio). There are reviews available also. It is stunning looking and suspends all equipment on top of brass Audiopoints. The rack itself is carved me... | |

| Smear campaign? I agree w/you, I have seen someone (the wording makes all the posts sound like it's the same person, though different email addresses are appended to each post) absolutely trashing the EMC-1, for reasons I can't fathom. He (I assume it is a he) ha... | |

| Alternative feet for LINN LP-12 I'm putting my LP-12 w/Trampolin and everything else on a Sistrum rack, which uses Audiopoints under each component. I've only just installed it today, so I can't yet comment on the sound or the difference from the standard Linn feet. Musicdoc, wh... | |
| what to upgrade Like some others here, I think the speakers are the LAST thing to upgrade. And I wouldn't upgrade a preamp if I only had funds to upgrade one component. First thing to upgrade is your power amp; then your CD player. You should look into getting a ... |
