Suggestion To The Moderators To Rid This Site Of Spam I think your idea is terrible. I post a lot here, never spam, so why should I be penalized? It’s easier to alert the moderator or ignore it. There already is a place here for people to pay to post. It doesn’t need to fall into the mainstream pa... | |
Positive comments on buyer Once I see the person has received my item, I wait 2 days and give feedback. Then I send them a message reminding them to provide feedback. I also mention I gave them good feedback. Works like a charm. | |

Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G On Ralph's recommendation, in whose ears I trust, I ordered the Oracle record mat today from Adirondack Audio. As soon as they receive it from Oracle, they will ship to me. Should take 10 business days or so. I will report back on my findings a... | |

Toslink vs Coax... I tried a few different cables when I had an outboard dac. I liked and used the Wireworld starlight 8 coax cable ( red one is around 125.00) and the Gold which is 250.00. In your case the red would be the way to go. Open, airy and wonderful bass. | |
Cryo EL84 vs non / JJ vs EH In regards to having the tubes cryoed, I purchased 4 NOS Mullard CV4003 tubes from Upscale. I paid extra for 2 tubes to be Cryoed and 2 were not. The cryoed tubes lasted6 months and 7 months, the non cryoed were in the preamp for 2 years and still... | |
DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA I hope Tom bought it from a very good dealer with a lot of cash flow. Some stores would be unable to refund that amount of money as many rob Peter to pay Paul. I hope for a happy ending. | |
Von Schweikert VR4-5 Speaker Cables If you want the absolute best sound from your Von Schweikert, you need to run to your dealer and purchase the Masterbuilt cables. VS swears by them. I believe they run around 8-10K per meter pair, although I am sure the dealer will give you a 5-1... | |
DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA I would tell the dealer you are returning everything involved for a full refund unless they do as you ask. Sounds like they are jerking you off with no happy ending. | |
Jadis JA-80: Tubes and speakers. Did you try your speakers on the different impedance taps on the amp? The EL34 tubes will give a richer and thicker midrange. I am not a fan of the KT120 tubes as I feel they impart a bit of grainyness into the sound. I would go with the Gold ... | |
Are DAC's overpriced? I am sure the Mac pre is better than the Parasound P6. Doesn’t sound like a good move to me. I owned Parasound, a Halo Integrated. While it was ok for the price, it didn’t move me the way the Mac integrated did. The Parasound had less body to ... | |
Cable recommendation for Krell & Vandersteen Vandersteen recommends and uses Audioquest cables in their demos. | |
Used Market Savings vs. The Dealer Experience @jafant...…..I remember Jack when he was at Images Sight & Sound in Northampton, Ma. I bought a brand new McCormack DNA1 from him. Stupidly, I sold it for a Classe15 amp at another dealer. Hey, I was much younger and less wise in audio. | |
3k Budget for Cartridge, Phono-Pre, and Cables - Recommendations Please His Marantz turntable is the same as one of the Clearaudio products, what will he gain with the Scout 1.1? Do you really think he will like a unipivot arm? |
