| Build me a killer Rock/Metal Rig for 1K How about ANYTHING beefy with a great treble control?! | |
| Four days in London LSO/Davis direct-marketed CDs for 4.99L! I bought a bunch in Scotland in July. The Berlioz Symphonie Fantastique is that indeed! There's lots of buzz about his Elgars, but I can't get into them. Nice to see individual orchestras taking production ... | |
| Confused addict: need help with upgrade Are you sure Classe is distributed by Equity (Rotel and B&W)? They're a Quebecois firm, and pretty unrelated to those guys in the UK, eh? | |
| link between speaker and floor Lint? Just tilt the speaker up and vacuum carefully. | |
| Audio Research CD3 vs Electrocompaniet EMC 1 I love my EMC-1 MkII also, and do wonder if ANYONE who's compared the latest UP-grade could carefully compare the performance? So far I've only heard kneejerk generalizations.NEW MkIIs can be had (isn't there an ad RIGHT NOW?) for under $3k. Good ... | |
| What do you currently own that was bought on 'Gon? Pass Aleph P, Aleph 2 monos, Discovery Essence XLR, Spendors. | |
| smallest highend manuf.of intergrated amp Pipetman,Actually, the moniker is derived from the french "pipette manuelle". We all thought that the name Pipetman worked in all languages. Ever see the original lexan-bodied production before 1977? Ever see one with a small "EM" calibration sign... | |
| Any experience with the Pass Labs Aleph 5??? If bass is lacking chase a used pair of Aleph 2 monos (same size as a 5 stereo); I saw a pair around here somewhere for only $2700. Phew! I paid $3300 for mine used two years ago ($7800 new!). MUCH more bass: 100/160w 8/4ohms per channel.Drive my ... | |
| volume/transparency ? Fletcher-Munson curves!! | |
| Upgraded AC outlets ACMEs are silver plated Pass & Seymours, and a good buy at $35. | |
| I need 'decent' speakers for my cheap system Spendor sp3/1p you will own for life, moving them around the house as you develop a ref system someday. Used for about $800, a STUNNINGLY realistic apeaker. I use 'em in a second FM/HT system with NAD 5.1 receiver and am VERY pleased. Good Luck. | |
| Attention to detail My B&W dealer thinks the 603S3 is godawful! Pretty lumpy bass to me, too. The bargain here is the ungainly-shaped 602S3, by far. For $800 used I bought FAR more natural Spendor SP3/1p, though the B&W will play much louder, deeper, and brig... | |
| Review: Spendor SP-2.3 Speaker Joe, try the 'lil S3 up against the wall, as it's sealed, and its light bottom benefits from boundary support. In free space I LOVE my SP3/1p...especially at only $800 used! | |
| smallest highend manuf.of intergrated amp I like the ARC Integrated for $1k.Pipetman, how'd you pick your moniker? I'm the co-inventor of the damned things (and other piston-operated volumetric equipment)! Ernie | |
| "period interpretation" beethoven? Zander's blindingly-fast "authentic tempos" are in evidence in Boston 4 times per year. His 6th sounds completely different, and not to my taste. His take on Stravinsky's Rite of Spring in 1990 sort of launched this whole issue of originally-score... |
