| Anyone Going to the Axpona Show in March in Jackso I'm going. I'm on the east coast so the location works for me. Plus with any luck the weather will be great. Beats freezing at Rmaf. | |
| Which Preamp will go well with Mag 3.6R ? The 4b is not enough power to get the best out of the 3.6's. (I had one on my 3.5's-just not enough in any decent sized room. It just won't get the low end going IMO) I have not heard them with the classe cam 350's however. | |
| maggies with bryston 7bssts Owned 3.3's and had a 4b which was ok but not enough to really drive the speakers. The 7B's however will be just fine. I ended up with a levinson 332 on the 3.3's and it was perfect. | |
| Will someone help me find a match for my ML336. I love my BAT VK51SE with ML products. I've had it with a 332, Four 436's and currently with a ML 532 (which is by far the best amp they have ever made). | |
| communication cable between Levinson amp/pre-amp? you can buy the needed parts at radio shack and make your own any length quite cheaply. I made one to go from a levinson preamp to my amp. cost is dirt cheap. The crimper costs about $12 dollars if I remember correctly. | |
| How to tell dates of Blue Note records? a handy reference is the Record guide from goldmine which has a section in the front which lists most of the labels and explains which ones are from which dates such as capitol -rainbow green orange red etc. available at most book stores Barnes an... | |
| Stylus wear question... The only damage likely is the wear on the cantilever which is more of an issue than stylus wear. I have actually broken a cantilever when the the stylus went on to the paper............(I was also asleep and had several nice cocktails etc.)the stu... | |
| Mac C2300 vs Aesthetix Calypso/Rhea? I like the blue light theme. I have a Rhea but a Bat VK51SE linestage. A beautiful combination in my opinion. Also blue lights on both.!!!!!!! I also own a pair of Mac MC 501's which are in my second system. The C2300 is ok but not in league with ... | |
| Reimyo and CD Player Comparison Since I own a cdt 777 and the 999EX Dac I would say just get a 999EX its what you got only way more. (I assume the 777 cdp has a digital out). The 777cdt and 999EX combo easily beats the Puccini and the meridian. I have not heard the Spectral. Of ... | |
| Native FLAC Player there are a bunch of new DSS players coming online. Check out Blacknote at blacknote.eu They have a new model That I belive is around $2000. I personally have a Blacknote 30 tube model and its a killer. | |
| Maggies with no Sub: Fantastic surprise try bi-amping with a bryston (or pass) external crossover. That will blow your mind. Never enough power with maggies. | |
| Power Cord for ARC DAC7 audio teckne Best I've heard on digital. the 2nd best is the Harmonix digital power cord (came with my Reimyo Cdt and Dac) the audio teckne beats it hands down. My interconnects are Harmonix (which I picked over the audio teckne interconnects) | |
| Ripping 700 CD's to HD using FLAC-How much space? of course the new way is a static player. You use flash memory instead of a reg. hard drive which eliminates the jitter (in theory) check out the blacknote dssat blacknote.eu | |
| What makes a record collection "great"? Jwong hit it perfectly. When I hold my Miles Davis "kind of Blue" six eye promo or the first six Dylan mono's that I got from a guy who played them once-(Did I mention they were mint.) I'm reducing my average records over time and replacing them w... | |
| Best digital interconnect My personal favorite is the Harmonix (combax corp) Digital interconnect. I've tried a lot and ended up with copper over copper/silver or silver. It's around $1000 bucks. |
