Best external hard drive to store PC ripped music
Peter,The short answer to your question is "not likely". Ideally the Time Machine drive should be significantly larger than the data to be backed up, because Time Machine keeps interval backups after the first one that allows you to go back in tim... 
Best external hard drive to store PC ripped music
Mcgarick, if you're using a PC then why not use the Windows Backup utility? You can select the files that you want backed up and the schedule you want them backed up with. All versions of Windows 7 can back up to an external HD attached with USB, ... 
What is the BEST WAY to download music to an ipod?
Kbarkamian, I use iTunes to sync with the iPod, but that's it. I use MediaMonkey to rip the CD's to FLAC, and I wrote a Perl program that sits on my Linux music server and runs nightly to create MP3 equivalents of the new FLAC files. This separate... 
Is there better amp for bass then Cary Rocket 88
The Rocket 88 is a good little amp, but for speakers of average to slightly above average sensitivity, you might find an amp like a Plinius 8200 with stronger bass presence.If, on the other hand, you want to stick with tubes, then I could suggest ... 
Tube audio under $900?
Roggae, what is it about the 302b that you don't like? As an owner of a 302b, I can attest to its being a high-value tube integrated, and very good for its price range. You can get a different sound within your budget, but I wouldn't put Cayin or ... 
Noisy External HD
Does your external HD have a fan? If so, the fan might be dirty or unbalanced, which can contribute to the noise.If the noise is coming from the HDD's themselves, then you might be able to put rubber washers between the HD's and the mounts (take o... 
Adding tubes to SS system-Tube Preamp Amp or Int?
I feel I might be in the minority, but I think that you generally get more of the benefit of tubes by having them in the amp section, rather than the preamp section. That said, having both tube preamp and amp (or an all-tube integrated) might be o... 
SS amp with tight deep bass ?
Audiogabby,I take it that you mean that you're pairing it with the Eastern Electric Minimax PREAMP, not amp?I've never heard the Minimax, but if it's like a lot of tube preamps, then it may be a little soft in the bass. Don't neglect the importanc... 
Budget speaker $600 or under recommendations
Rello,The MMG's are nice for the price, but I'm not convinced the Music Hall is up to the challenge of driving them adequately. Also, I'm assuming that for a 2nd system that he might not have the space for the MMG's.That's why I recommended the on... 
Budget speaker $600 or under recommendations
PSB Stratus Mini would be high on my list.Another option with a little more relaxed sound would be GMA Europas.I agree the VR-1's are also a good choice for those looking for the more lean and detailed sound. They also image great.Michael 
Best Aesthetic Vintage Black Receiver or Tuner
You should be able to find a Sansui here on Audiogon. They're not that rare. Michael 
Amp suggestions please...need some power

Solid State Power Amps That Sound Most Like Tubes?
The sound from various tube amps ranges the entire spectrum from very transparent and detailed to very warm, rich, and euphonic. I agree with posters who have asked what types of tube amps this friend likes in order to provide a better response.I ... 
Need a speaker for the blues lover...
Jdoris, maybe the oxymoron has been resolved for you but I still don't understand it.Beernut, let me get this straight: You have a place in on a scenic river in the woods with no nearby neighbors that consists of a garage and only a studio apartme... 
Need a speaker for the blues lover...
If you had a more powerful amp than the McIntosh and had a sub, I would go with the MMG's. I think that for Blues, planars and especially electrostatics really sound great.However, for your associated components, I don't think the MMG's would be a...
