| Conrad Johnson 17LS2 tube problems with Krell amp? I have the KCT CAST connected to a 400cx. Before I switched to a Krell based system I had Bryston BP25 running into 7BST monoblocks. At that time I was looking for something with a bit more air and dynamic contrast so I suditioned a cj 17 pre with... | |
| Meadowlark and Jolida compatible? Thanks, I found adealer in San Jose that sells both Jolida dn Meadowlark so I'll be heading down there for an audition of this combination within the next week or two. So far the CD player is turning out to be quite the value. | |

| Any Audiophile recording of The Planets? Ditto Texasdave, I saw MSO perform this piece when lived in Montreal for a couple or wonderful years and this particular recording captures all the energy, sonics and excellent musicianship of this fine and often overlooked orchestra and performan... | |
| The majic of early 1970's rock and it's influence- Jdm61, I couldn't agree more, but then Jethro Tull and Yes had some wierd lyric lines that made sense, as did Zep from time to time. Ramble on! | |
| The majic of early 1970's rock and it's influence- Muse is a band that comes to mind that has recaptured moved forward the musical propects of the early 70s. Sometimes they sound like cabaret.We need another injection of classical influence in modern rock. | |

The problem for me was that it was on the peninsula and I live in the East Bay. Any audiophiles Berkeley or north I woul... | |
| Which Used CD Player for Under $1,500? I am waiting for a Jolida JD100A CD player to arrive. It has tubes in the output stage, lists well under $1000 and has received excellent reviews. It has a BurrBrown 24/96 chipset and by all accounts is built like a tank. I will post a review afte... | |
| Meadowlark Blue Herron 2 vs. Usher 8871 Dunlavy... RIP (so sad) | |
| Only three manufacturers? Bigtee, no argument, your points are well delivered and taken and agree with you from the premise that we must do no more harm than is already done. And that is particularly why I most often find myself playing vinyl from recordings that were kept... | |
| Only three manufacturers? Great responses here and though I am a devoted Thiel fan and owner (CS6s), I also compose and record music in a home studio environment. I have asked Jim Thiel about this too: Hey folks, it matters not a rat's *ss if the production of the recordin... | |
| Jolida JD100 vs MF A3.2 vs Ah Njoe Tjoeb 4000 Von trapp, I too am looking for a tube based CD player to go with the Jolida 302 I am waiting to be delivered. I am thinking about that Tjoeb 4000 as it has had nothing but rave reviews and seems to be well built. | |
| Krell Fpb 600 power amp That really was the amp that put Krell on the map. Do not hesitate, go for it! | |
| FPB 300 vs 600 - Incremental or Fundamental? I bought a 300cx a couple of years ago under the provision that I could trade up to a 400cx for a full credit within a week of purchase. Well I did exercise that option and the results were very apparent; also to my wife (yay!). There was more cla... |
