| Mark 436, Sim Audio W-6/W-10, or MF KW750 for C-2 I've heard the 436 amps on a pair of Dynaudios at a dealers. The sound was excellent is these amps have plenty of current 1400 watts into a 2 ohm load which is more significant than the watts per channal. From other posts, I would rate the three i... | |

| Available in CD? RCA Direct Master "Appassionata I just remembered having the record, my phono stage is on the fritz, and $15.00 sounded easier to spend than $1500.But yes it is a great recording, but I don't know anyone that could record it to CD. | |
| RE:Magnepan Unitrac arm The MMT was an "S" shaped tone arm with a removable headshell. I don't remember any flat portion except the headshell.The FT-3 was a straight tube with non removable headshell. As for Magnepan do a Google search for their website. I'm sure they ha... | |
| sub positioning.. Thanks for the kind words. Here are a couple of other thoughts concerning subs and main speakers. Adding subs to your system can take it to whole new leve. First I have eliminated the super low bass info by crossing the Subs and Salons at 80hz. Th... | |
| Subwoofer : Front Or Down Firing For Musicality ? Warren,What an avid audiophile you are! I always enjoy reading your comments and learn a great deal. Concerning the Salons, they do perform as advertised,and sound great. But adding subs takes them to a new level. First I have eliminated the super... | |
| sub positioning.. Placing any sub or subs is very difficult. If you want the best from any sub and system you need someone with a spectrum analyzer to find the correct location. Two subs are actually easier to place than one and at least for music sound much better... | |
| Fixing a Levinson: Where do I send it? Levinson has drastically revised their repair policy in the consumer's favor. Many people were so unhappy about the previous flat rate that they were forced to moderate the expenses. They do have a maximum fee that it will cost to repair each piec... | |
| Subwoofer : Front Or Down Firing For Musicality ? Go with two subs. You'll never look back. Find a pro to help you set them up with testing equipment. Otherwise you'll never get the best out of your money or system. I chose the Revel Sub 30s because they are B15s on steroids. And I new they would... | |
| BEST UPGRADE regardless of cost? Build a dedicated Audio room. You've never heard your system until you've done this. Get Rives Audio, Auralex, or ASC to help you and follow their recommendations. You won't believe the differnce. | |
| VTL, CTC, Lamm, ARC, EAR, Halcro, Mark Levison Don 't neglect to hear and consider the ML #32.This is a great preamp worthy of inclusion in the finest of audio sytems. Give this baby what it needs as for as AC power, great amps, and surrounding components and I don't think you'll ever regret o... | |
| Audiophiles DO NOT USE DHL-READ MY NIGHTMARE Yes DHL is the pits! They don't track the packages as they move across the country. They lost a pair of Revel Sub 30s and had no idea where they were or when they were picked up. They don't scan the item as it moves from hub to hub. I'd never ship... | |
| RE:Magnepan Unitrac arm I would contact Magnepan. They should be able to supply you with the correct info. I used to install this arm. We used it with MC cartrigdes among them the Dynavectors, Audioquest, Grados, and Koetsus. It was very good but not in the same league a... | |
| Mark Levinson 436 Monos vs. Classe CA-401 stereo ? I had the Classe CAM 350 Monoblocks on my system for a week. They sounded good in many ways and I was considering purchasing them. Ulimately though, I really wasn't overwhelmed with the slam, authority, and control so I held off. Next up was a Lev... | |
| Solidsteel racks any good The Solidsteel racks are excellent. They provide isolation and are well engineered. I'm using 4 of their racks for my system at the moment. The aluminum points that the platforms are seated work very well. I filled mine with sand before using. I t... |
