| Bob Dylan, have an opinion? Guess I'm the only naysayer in this thread. I was in my 20's during the 1960's and listened to a lot of singers and groups. Of all the artists from that period, I never understood why Bob Dylan was so idolized. There were many other artists who al... | |
| Vote for the best center speaker here Hey, Cornfedboy: are you suggesting that the HT speaker setup sucks, or that a phantom center channel is better than a real center? | |

| How important... Ah, the old "who's on top" debate. I have found that being on the top is just as good as being on the bottom...it's all a matter of which brings you pleasure........ | |
| DVD Audio vs SACD? The Absolute Sound has an editorial piece in their current issue stating we consumers now have a golden chance to influence which format is adopted by supporting the SACD format. In the opinion of TAS and other audio mags, SACD is clearly the bett... | |
| No Silver Lace Speaker Cable owners? Trelja and I have swapped some E-mails, and he mentioned that he was probably going to buy a set of the Silver Lace speakers cables. Have you gotten them yet, Trelja? | |
| Any mid-priced Receivers Worthwhile??? Plato: In response to Argent's post, you asked if the Adcom GTP-760 has the capability to separately adjust the gain settings for each channel. The answer is yes. The 760 has a built-in balance test generator, and with the use of the Radio Shack a... | |
| JM REYNAUD MKII-VS-COINCIDENT TRIUMPH I have had only limited opportunity to listen to the Reynaud's, but I have owned a pair of Coincident Triumph Signatures for about 6 months. Based on memory, I'd say the Reynaud are a bit warmer sounding, while the Coincidents are a bit more accur... | |
| Phono preamps 1-2K range I have a Lehmann Audio Black Cube with the new outboard power supply, which sells for under $900. You should definitely consider this unit before you spend more. | |

| Good Cowboy Junkies "Trinity Sessions"? I have never cared much for this recording, so my original issue LP has only been played a few times. If you are interested in buying it, I'll sell it for $15 plus shipping. | |
| ElectrostatsPlaner/Ribbon s Vs Cone driv There are any "small" planar speakers, but the Maggie 1.6R's are a great smaller model, and they should pair very well with a good subwoofer like the REL Strata. | |
| Best pre/pro for under 3K? If you really intend to use the "pre" functions as well as the "pro" functions, you must put the Bryston SP-1 near the top of your list. It can purchased at discount for about $2800 (contact me for more info). It has separate analog and digital ci... |
