| Help me get back to vinyl Sorry about the double posting. | |
| Help me get back to vinyl OK, based on your budget of <$1,000, if I was in your exact same position ... knowing what I know now (picked up almost entirely from A-gon and a few email exchanges with the good folks at needledoctor.com ... this is exactly what I'd do:1) For... | |

| Jazz Piano Trio / Spanish Guitar Newbee's list is fairly comprehensive. Can't go wrong with anything there. Since you didn't specify format ... a CD you might want to try is "Young at Heart" by Tony Williams. He's joined by pianist Mulgrew Miller and bassist Ira Coleman. It featu... | |
| Recommend Classical Piano LP's I'd like to send another big "thanks" to everyone who gave suggestions. I received an order yesterday with two LP's suggested on this thread - Nojima Plays Revel (RR label) and Rubenstein's Chopin: Preludes Op. 28 (RCA). While these are both excel... | |
| whats the best amplifier for me?? Research the Channel Island Audio D-200. It's a Class D amp similar to Nuforce and Bel Canto. There is a lot of information available about any of these amps. They are all light weight, cool running, and have a fairly small footprint. I auditioned... | |
| Directv music channel versus AM/FM Tuner ? No tuners for me. As some others have said, I use the DTV XM Sat stuff for background music when I'm doing stuff around the house. Good for syncing upstairs/downstairs systems. | |
| Recording Opinions Please Thanks for the responses Bongofury (very thorough) and Buconero (concise). I was trying to figure out how to tell - ahead of time - if the CD production quality would be up to par prior to actually listening to certain music. Case in point: I have... | |
| Please recommend a high-powered SS amp Here's a previous thread that discusses a lot of power for not a lot of money (new):http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1170999828&read&keyw&zzbehringer | |
| Warm copper speaker cables under $500 new Another Gregg Straley Reality Cable convert here. Plenty of feedback and valuable information on A-gon and other sites. I got 'em and haven't looked back. | |
| Those simpler times..... I was thinking about this same thing lately. In the 70's I blew nearly all my summer job college money on my first upgrade ... went from a Denon one-box "component" set-up to a Marantz 1060 integrated, Thorens TT, and Advent speakers. Speaker wire... | |
| Can you recommend any Speaker cables for my system? Literally took months ordering, breaking in and auditioning speaker cables in the high performance to cost ratio category: Signal, Alpha-Core Goertz MI1, Speltz Anti-cable, Audio Art SC-5, Morrow Audio SP2, and Gregg Straley Reality Cables. For th... | |
| really inexpensive power cords I've had good experience with Signal Cable, with all 3 grades of Frank's power cords for everything in my system ... basic, digital, and premium with silver. Worth checking out. | |
| Jazz artists for late starter. Must everything degenerate into a p***ing contest? Alnolan, with all due respect ... I care. Guess that makes me a "hanger-oner and one that think the(sp) know". I thought we were here to contribute to the A-gon community. I am certainly grateful ... | |
| Playback Designs MPS-5 CD/SACD Player Dave, thanks for the very well written and thorough review ... great contribution. Won't be replacing my TRL modded Sony anytime soon. The MPS-5 is a bit too rich for my blood; but really appreciate Rava's "The Third Man" recommendation. Just orde... |
