| Rega Planet Original Agree with Jgiacalo - these players have no isolation - will skip if they are picking up anything in terms of bass feeding back into themselves.Try isolating it and see if the problems go away - simple experiment is to buy/borrow some longer cable... | |
| Insignia HD Tuner No Sony's around locally and decided the digi outs are important to me. Sony is really interesting for FM (analog) performance - but there's nothing in my locality that makes analog performance a buy feature for me. Bought the Insignia this aftern... | |
| Insignia HD Tuner Was not at all aware of the Sony. Very interesting - every once in a while Sony does this - pops out a world class product for almost no money! My pre-amp only has digi inputs - but I suppose I could just hook up a A/D converter and feed it in tha... | |
| life expectancy of a cdp? I know from talking to service guys that a problem that drives 'em crazy is getting a unit in for service ( disc skiping,won't read -whatever) and realizing that it's the same mechanism they are already familiar with on a hate and despise basis fr... | |

| What is a B&W 801M? Yah - these are ported - think they might be first generation Matrix 801s. I remember the matrix cabnet making a big difference in bass and midrange clarity on these. | |
| What is a B&W 801M? Barry - these have the bass eq box and seem to have metal dome tweeters. My memory(always suspect) is that the series 80 had the soft dome (brown colored) tweeter?they appear to be bi-amp/bi-wireable (jumpers plus to plus ,minus to minus on the ba... | |
| Sangean HD Tuner used with external DAC Yup -run mine thru one of the Toslink inputs on a EAD DSP-9000III. Sounds great - this may be unique to my unit - but a little prone to weirdness when the power fluctuates. NBD - but presets go away? I basically live in what can be considered a di... |
