How Good are the Analysis Plus speaker c
FPeel, I'm sorry if you thought i was singling you out. I didn't mean it that way at all. The "theory of relativity" comments were meant in general and not to anybody(s) in specific. As to the specific comments about FPeel's specific situation, I ... 
How Good are the Analysis Plus speaker c
As mentioned before, everything is system dependent and up to personal likes & dislikes. I do have some comments though. Audio, like anything else, is a relative thing. If you've been walking from place to place, a Yugo is a nice car to own. O... 
Speaker Cable : Low/Mid Priced Advice
Most of the "specialty" type cables all require a good amount of burn in time to sound their best. If you do pick some wires up on a time limited trial basis, try to leave the system playing as much as possible. You can do this by leaving the FM t... 
Speaker Cable : Low/Mid Priced Advice
I really have to laugh after reading this stuff. We've all seen stuff like this before. Cables are extremely system dependent and a matter of personal taste. Nonetheless, here's my take on the situation : ) Kimber 8TC will sound somewhat forward a... 
How Good are the Analysis Plus speaker c
I've just run in a pair of Oval 9's ( copper ) for appr. 500+ hours. I was told by a salesman at Audio Advisor that these cables sound horrible out of the box and take quite a while to settle in. I would agree. Out of the box, they literally SUCKE... 
Bedini Clarifier II, FuruTech RD-1 etc
If your interested in a Bedini Ultra Clarifier, call up Music Direct and ask for Bes ( tell him i sent you ). They have several demo's / trade-ins when people "upgraded" to the Ultra Clarifier II. You can pick these up for a bargain and they work ... 
Anyone Know Perreaux 2150B?
I assumed that this was like the rest of Audiogon and could click on the sellers / posters name and get emai info. Either way, my email is bigfoot1@corecomm.net Sorry about that. Sean > 
Anyone Know Perreaux 2150B?
Email me for info. I'll be glad to help you in any way that i can. I used to own a 2150B and currently use two 3150B's to bi-amp the mains of my HT system. Sean > 
BEST HEAVY METAL BAND
Venom, Slayer, Celtic Frost, Bathory, Motorhead, Sabbath, Manowar, Cirith Ungol, Candlemass, etc.. You just can't beat "old school" metal. I never really got into Metallica to any great extent and now i'm glad of it. I have heard them slag their o... 
Speakers: all-time worst
How about a tri-amped system running Heil's for the tweeters, 901's for the mids and some Vega's for bottom end ??? Power amps would have to be some old "industry standard" Crown's ( of course ) !!! This oughta make you cringe just thinking about ... 
The Best Audio Dealer
While many dealers do put down gear that they don't sell, some of them do it tastefully and explain why. I would rather have someone tell me HONESTLY what the deal is with a product, their experiences ( good and bad ) and how the company supports ... 
Music Fidelity or Adcom
Out of what you mentioned, the Musical Fidelity amp will sound much better. What it might be lacking in sheer power and bass impact will be more than made up for in terms of finesse, detail and musicality. Depending on what the ratio of jazz is to... 
Worst Music of All-Time
Don't you mean WALTER Carlos ??? Something more than Back got "switched" in that deal. Much like "it's" gender, some people never know when to leave well enough alone. Sean > 
Theshold Amp repair
Three recommendations in a row. I guess Jon is doing something right !!!! Like the others stated, i too will say that you have to be patient with him. It will be worth the wait though. Sean > 
Worst Rock Band Ever !!!!
Chances are that if they are really that bad, we probably would've never heard of them them. Bands build reputations by people spreading the news. How many people have you ever heard say " did you hear ( insert generic band name here ) album ? It'...
