Integrated amps on a 1,000 dollar budget
One of my favorites in this price range is the Jolida 302b. It's warm and lush, and should be to your liking.For college, though, I agree with the previous poster that maybe tubes aren't what you want. Perhaps a Music Hall integrated would work we... 
Harmony Remote Control
How does the Harmony One compare with some of Universal's offerings? It seems as though the One definitely improves some of the shortcomings of the 880, but I'm not convinced that it has completely gotten away from the LCD/small button thing. Or a... 
Do you have a secret "guilty pleasure" recording?
When nobody's looking, I periodically enjoy playing the Bee Gees, Pat Benatar, John Denver, and -- don't tell anyone this -- Sir Mix-a-lot.Michael 
Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now?
Oh man, John, you are one lucky guy to snag yourself such a gorgeous wife. I think I speak for most of us here that we're all envious of you. :)Michael 
Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now?
Newbee, glad to hear that I'm not alone in admiring the budget systems that are overachievers.I'm still haunted years later by a system I heard at a dealer's. It imaged better than any system I'd ever heard before, or since. And it was such a uniq... 
What's a good beginner turntable at $2500+- range?
OK, so since your Ayre preamp has a phono stage, I assume that the $3500-$4500 represents the table, cartridge, and record cleaning machine.First question: What kind of music do you expect to be listening to on LP? Classical, jazz, pop, metal, etc... 
What's a good beginner turntable at $2500+- range?
Mmike84, you say that you want to spend roughly $2500 for the turntable, without considering the cartridge and such.My suggestion is that you create an "analog system" budget, and let us provide input on all components involved: The turntable, car... 
Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now?
Jb8312, I don't think that many of us feel intimidated by "sub $30K" systems. (I'm still at the stage in my life where I consider $30K for a stereo to be excessive.) And, granted, people do have to start somewhere with their audiophile stuff. (For... 
Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now?
John, that's a good point for looking at the number of systems in each category, rather than the number of posts on them. You're right, people like to talk about the whiz-bang systems a lot more than someone's NAD integrated.I guess my cutoff for ... 
What's a good beginner turntable at $2500+- range?
Johnnyb, I have the KAB fluid damper and record clamp. I'm using the stock headshell for the DL-103, but I noticed that when I put the provided headshell weight on it that the result was a much richer, fuller sound. I've heard some people say the ... 
What's a good beginner turntable at $2500+- range?
The Technics is a cute table and a high value product... It is in the Music Hall, Project, Rega, league.I disagree with this assertion. I've had Music Halls and Pro-jects, and I've heard Regas. My KAB Technics beats all of them hands-down. Coupled... 
Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now?
Albert, I completely agree with your statement that "money does not always dictate how good it will be".I was just making the observation that most of the virtual systems traffic lately has been stilted towards the expensive side. Like you, I appr... 
Why are all the Virtual Systems mega-assaults now?
Fcrowder, I can understand that someone might gain some pearls of wisdom by looking at the uber-expensive systems, but I feel that I learn so much more about value and synergy from the more value-oriented virtual systems. And Elizabeth, I understa... 
Suggestions For Classical & Symphonic CDs
I second Dvorak's 9th. My favorite recording is with the full collection of Dvorak's symphonies (Dvorak: The Symphonies) with Istvan Kertesz and the London Symphony Orchestra.Also, try Brahms 3rd and 4th. Consider the set with Zubin Mehta and the ...
