| Upgrade? I second the Outlaw Audio receiver. It has gotten good reviews and will be much better than the mass market crap from the Japanese manufacturers. | |
| Cat damaged speaker, Help I like the idea of the shopping bags, probably easier to put on than the slip covers my wife made me. Thanks......... | |
| The Trouble with Cartridge Recommendations I had a Dynavector 20XL cartridge on my VPI Scout and absolutely loved the sound. Unfortunately, I bought the cartridge used and the suspension had collapsed. I ended up buying a ZU/Denon dl103 cartridge which is no way as good as the Dynavector. ... | |
| Trip to NYC, What to do Make sure you hit the Blue Note in Harlem. Singer has reopened in a new location on the second floor of some building. | |
| opinions on new amp please..... The Khartago was rated very highly by TAS. I personally own a Stratos and it is an amazing amp. The Khartago is a lot of amp for very little $$$. It also comes with a 20 year transferrable warranty and the build quality is incredible for the price... | |
| System upgrade, need advice, source or speakers? You will always get the most bang for your buck by upgrading the speakers. I do not know very much about the particular speakers you have so I don't know if the upgrade is worthwhile. The differences in dac's, especially when you get into the pric... | |
| Cat damaged speaker, Help I repaired the woofer without incident and the cat hasn't bothered them since. He is now too fat and old to jump up on the speakers. And for the person who said to "get a life", all I asked was if anyone knew of a product to fix the speaker. Perso... | |
| Mark Levinson with Vandersteens? I use a Classe 15 amp from the late 90's with the Vandersteen 2ce speakers in my secondary system and it sounds fantastic. The amp outputs 175wpc and is mated to a tube preamp. Very full sounding system, delicate highs and excellent bass. | |
| Cured of upgraditis? How do you like the VR33 speakers? I am considering a pair but haven't heard them. I need something to go close to the rear wall and they seem to be just the ticket. Mostly, how do they sound on rock? | |
| AC cables for JRDG 201 monoblocks n' Esoteric DAC I use a Shunyata Diamondback Platinum power cord plugged into a Shunyata Hydra 4 power conditioner on my Esoteric UX-3 Multiformat player. The sound is sublime. | |
| flac player question Try using J Rivers media center. It's free for 30 days. | |
| My Dynavector 10 X 5 Stylus fell off now what? You can either send it to Soundsmith to be repaired or buy a new cartridge. | |
| Dazed & Confused. Your thoughts please... You are wrong about the Emotiva line. I had their dac for a year, then moved up to a Wyred4sound dac. The Emotiva dac was 200.00 and the Wyred dac was 1000.00. There was very little difference between them sound wise. There was certainly not an 80... | |
| Classe' CAP-151,are there reliability issues? I had the cap 150 that went back to Classe twice for cold solder connections. Both times were covered under warranty. I also had a Classe 10 amp which I used for 10 years with zero problems and currently I have a 17 year old Classe 15 amp which is... | |
| Attention Esoteric CD/SACD Players Owners I replaced the MIT AVT1 cable with a Kimber Silver Streak which I bought used on the Gon. It has done exactly what I was hoping it would do and I am very happy.. |
