| Best Class A Amp under $2,000 used? " Here's a pair of Aleph 2 monoblocks for $1,100"Are you sure those amps are not counterfeit or prototypes? I had most of the Aleph's and none of them looked like the ones in the pic's. | |
| Which Budget Friendly Floorstanders Next? I had the 8's which are pretty close to what you have. I don't see any of your new choices as a step up. Would it be possible to raise your standards a bit and try for something not only different, but better sounding as well? | |
| Audiophile quality streamer/server-in-one without a DAC. Does this exist? " I don't think that not being able to play high-res files is that a big of a deal. The promise of high-res was really cool to me but has turned out to be a great disappointment."I agree. High rez is better, but you have to invest some time and... | |
| Repair shop in Washington State Is it just when you adjust the volume, or is it flashing constantly? It could be a feature that makes it easier to see. Do a search on youtube for the same amp. Sometimes people make videos that covers a product in detail. | |
| Best Class A Amp under $2,000 used? Pass Aleph 0s. It has a lot of power, so it should be able to drive just about any speaker. Next to my Krell 250, the Pass was a much better sounding amp in just about every way. The Krell did bass a little better. | |
| Bryston BDA-2 Or Yggdrasil Help I've heard both dacs and they sound OK. I you are willing to consider others, look at this one.http://www.wadia.com/en-us/products/di322In my opinion, the Wadia's in another league. It could be the last dac you'll ever buy. | |
| After nearly 20 years, I left Magnepan and went ProAc " Any sugesstions to tighten them right would be helpful. "Get an assortment of rubber O rings from an auto parts store. If they're not sure what kind, tell them to give you the ones that go on A/C lines. Pick a size that best fits your feet and ... | |
| Speaker experience/recommendation for CJ Classic60SE The new amp may not have quite enough power power to drive the M5's. If you don't have a big room and listen at high volumes, you'll probably be OK. If you do a lot of off axis listening, you may want to keep the M5's. If not, the Vandersteen Mod... | |

| EMI Absorber 'Hozox' I know Arcam/dCs uses something like this to line the inside of their components. I believe Furutech does as well.If you're having an EFM problem, it should help. | |
| Too Many Forums asking about how to improve ones system, etc. Probably 90% of audiophiles buy based on reviews. Most won't admit to it, but its easy to see. Many come here to seek conformation. | |
| Need FLEXIBLE Power Cord . Jena Labs Ferrite would be a good choice. Well made, flexible and good sounding. | |
| Theta Data basic transport Blue light? Its possible that light on your old one is not working. Also, if I remember correctly, ST was an option on that transport. The light may come on when you use it. | |
| Krell HTS 7.1 vs Denon AVR-X4300H "Exactly the answer I was looking for. Thank you."I agree with that as well, with the exception of trying both preamps. I never had the 2 Krells side by side, so I just can't say. | |
| Which is Better? Musical Fidelty A5 (used) or new Rogue Sphinx? Cable Company is a Rogue dealer. Why not have them send you a demo? |
