| Musical Fidelity A5 Fire - Struggling to get support When buying these things, its as important to know the company's support history as to its audio performance. I hear way too many reports as Kevin describes. | |
| Audioquest WEL Signature I had WEL in my system and thought the Everest/Montblanc was far better..as a matter of fact, I liked almost everything else better ..just shows to go ya how more important system matching is than price. .. | |
| Cable elevators I've never found the least bit of difference with/without them. | |
| Do you think you need a subwoofer? I use Vandersteen 5A speakers. They have built-in subs that are driven from their own amps...my main stereo amp drives the mids/highs. This frees up the amp from the power hungry subs and permits it to just loaf with smile. Two subs are better ... | |
| Technics SL1200: standard overhang gauge or MintLP You are much more likely to adjust the cartridge correctly with a MINT even if the exact same measurements are on any other gauge. It eliminates site errors. | |

There was my favorite store called HiFi Haven in New Brunswick when I was going to school at Rutgers. Thi... | |
| Pre-amp upgrade time? ..just can't understand why so many come to a " time to upgrade" situation. If something doesn't work, or is irritating its time to move on, but to upgrade incrementally doesn't make sense to me. Most times the new component is just different .... | |
| Thiel Owners tomic601,,,,,re: tilt - true, except if the floor is not level. I have Vandersteens and Richard advised me to use a laser to correct any inaccuracies. I found that Vandy's (Thiels I'm sure as well) snap into better focus if speakers are exactly... | |

The suggestions on these posts will confuse the most sane among us. Just get what you like. I would make sure that what you buy is in good playing condition...then forget about ever... |
