| AntiCables v. Morrow? I am using Anti-Cables with great satisfaction. I feel no need for anything else. I've compared the Anti's with the high priced spread of various cable manufacturers and went with Anti's. Money was not an issue - only performance. | |
| help with cartridge set-up I too live in Scottsdale.....how can I help What arm and cartridge do you have Stan | |
| What speakers have best bass for hip hop, and rock I agree with Cerwin=Vega. B&W is too expensive for what it is, and won't give you what you need...maybe with a 5000 watt amp. | |
| VPI Classic and new cartridge - which one? HW's cartridge of choice for his personal use is the LP-S. Be sure to get a heavier (180 grm) counterweight | |
| Is McIntosh a stepping stone into HI/FI? Bj...what I heard with the mac was that the highs particularly were more rounded off...seductive... It was like sitting in back of the hall rather than the mid hall presentation of the Ayre. I guess I hear more music with Ayre, the Mac seemed slow... | |
| Is McIntosh a stepping stone into HI/FI? Mac makes some very nice equipment. Like everything else, the end result is how happy are you with what's coming out of your speakers. I own all Ayre equipment with Vandersteen 5A's, but just recently heard Vandersteen 5A's driven with Mac, and it... | |
| Vandersteen 1's and Speaker Cables I have had great success with Anti-Cables. They are dirt cheap and sound as good as the top tier. Be sure to tell them to use the small spades. | |
| Is there a huge diff, between 2CE Sig II & 3A Sig? There is no better place to get advice about anything Vandersteen, or as a matter of fact...anything audiophile. John's the nicest most knowledgeable person I have ever dealt with. He sells nearly everything, and is the very best place to go. | |
| Is there a huge diff, between 2CE Sig II & 3A Sig? Unsound....Why are you getting so upset.... No one knows who you are, where you live, what kind of car you drive, if you're married or single, etc. You live in anonimity. The way I saw it is that you were giving very wrong advice - an indication t... | |
| Dynaudio c-2 ...amp advice Mcintosh or simaudio Mac is better | |
| Re: Vintage Perreaux Amplifiers I would look elsewhere | |
| Should i go Boulder 1060 or Jeff Rowland 625 Rowland is a much better unit. They have great support if you should ever need it as well. | |
| Power cords, AC line conditioners---preferences? Actually in my system there was nothing worse than Cardas. They were just awful. I made my own power cables - Furutech F1 end with Accrolink cable...wonderful stuff. | |
| Is there a huge diff, between 2CE Sig II & 3A Sig? You guys (or girls) really are not that knowledgeable about Vandersteens, and yet you give advice to someone who's serious about his question. Unsound...the name is perfect. The Signatures are individually tested in a chamber and have to pass the ... | |
| Shelter 501 It sounds from your description, that there is an incompatability in your arm/cartridge interface. When using VPI arms, Shelters do as you describe...the fix is to add weight to the headshell or use a heavier arm. |
