| Any opinions on new type of amps from BMC, Hegel, yeah, yeah, sure, sure. The defect is soft to potentially woofer destroying clipping in the right channel depending on the combination of particular bass/drum note and dynamics. | |
| Which Integrated amps should I audition? What would you think of a manufacturer (BMC) and distributor (Aaudio Imports) who refuse to support their products when after identifying, notifying, and working with them to correct the sonic defect and then waiting 12 more months for the problem... | |
| Suggestions on a neutral and powerful integrated.. What would you think of a manufacturer (BMC) and distributor (Aaudio Imports) who refuse to support their products when after identifying, notifying, and working with them to correct the sonic defect and then waiting 12 more months for the problem... | |

| Noticed the Patriot Act's effects on PayPal? Looking back, we can see now the Patriot Act was only the beginning. | |
| the quest for the best--within limits The answer to your question, MrTennis, should be obvious.What fascinates me is the flip-side to that question when the erudite types provide the non-sensical response,"There is no best component or right answer. Whatever is right to your ears is w... | |
| What is your listening level? Perhaps some of you with shall we say 'sensitive' ears might get a kick out of Stereophile's John Atkinson's and others' comments on the loudness of my exhibiting room at RMAF last October.http://www.stereophile.com/content/legacy151bmc151dynamic-... | |
| Should i move rack to sidewall? Streetdaddy, your room is already about as vibration rich as they come and your vibration-sensitive components are already probably saturated with air-borne regardless of their location. In other words, does it really matter if it's raining cats o... | |
| Sonic difference K2CD vs SACD Ahendler, I would never presume that my elementary 5 - 10% improvement comment could compare to any of your eloquently detailed and most likely superior descriptions of sonic differences. The point being was that high-rez format differences genera... | |

| DAC for Esoteric XO3-SE CDP I purchased my UX-3SE universal cdp new over 5 years ago and consider it a fabulously musical cdp. I've not tried an external DAC nor have I had the desire. On the other hand, about 3 years ago I purchased an Esoteric external G-25u reclocking uni... | |
| How far have power conditioners evolved? Like anything else line conditioners have advanced. But at the same time it seems that there are probably just as many line conditioners not worth owning today as there was 5 or 6 years ago.In other words, finding proper line conditioning has alwa... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Actually, Onhwy61, whether my response is incorrect or flawed depends entirely on the perspective or premise of the question being asked and you bring up some good points.First there's the all important question, In general, is the vast majority o... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Thanks for the support, Russ. I think.So I guess the point you were trying to make was, if the water coming into your home is toxic and you hate to shower in it, your thinking is to add 5 more shower heads surrounding you in the shower will make t... |
