| Nautilus owners upgrade to what? I agree with DrrDiamond. I listen to a lot of live classical and perform quite a bit as well. The B&W's do come close to what I hear in the concert hall. I also agree that many audiophiles are looking for something other than accuracy, whether... | |
| Recommended SS AMP for under 1,000 Read on... Stretch a little for a Blue Circle BC22. ($1000 to $1250 used). Gilbert Yeung of Blue Circle is a Martin Logan owner, and uses them to test his designs. Nice amp for the money. The BC22 can be run balanced or single ended (Has both inputs). | |
| AC Power cords, which components 1st...? If you are using a power conditioner with a removeable cord, then start there. That place affects the power for all the components in the system. I would do the CD player or DAC next; then the power amp. If you use a sub, then a better cord will u... | |

| Mozart Piano Concerto 21. I also own the Lipatti, which also has a nice performance of the Schumann concerto. I don't mean to knock Schiff too hard. I do like his Bach interpretations. | |
| Mozart Piano Concerto 21. I will ditto the Curzon recording. Curzon is my favorite Mozartian pianist. But the recording I have is with Kubelik and the Barvarian Radio Symphony. I did not recommended it figuring the Perahia with modern CD sound would appeal more to audiophi... | |
| What companies, out of Business, did you LOVE??? Many companies like Sonic Frontiers, Technics, Fisher, etc, are still in business in name only. They really are gone. Someone just bought the name to sell something else using the old company's goodwill. Just look at all the classic American telev... | |
| Red dawn vs SPM Red Dawn is a nice cable, but the SPM is in another league. I always felt the Red Dawn was a little dry. | |
| Mozart Piano Concerto 21. For #21 you can't go wrong with Murray Perahia. He has recorded it more than once. Try the one with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe with him conducting from the piano. It is on Sony Classical SK46485(Comes with Concerto #27)On LP record look for t... | |
| another tube question Ram Labs chief Roger A. Modjeski is an Audiogon member. His screen name is Ram1. He designs some nice tube gear (Music Reference). You can probably email him through Audiogon and ask him yourself about how he tests his tubes and where he gets them... | |

| CD suggestions and help with Musical Fid. and BMW? If anything, your $1500 (list) 120 watt amp is a little on the low/lightweight side for a $3500 pair of Nautlilus speakers, regardless of how nice that amp is. The Nautlius speakers seem to have a long break in period and tend to like lots of powe... | |
| CD suggestions and help with Musical Fid. and BMW? Plashy cymbals, or the tweeter making itself known/apparent/sticking out, is a common comment made of the Nautilus Tweeter. I would look at the cables also as a fix. It ain't the CD if I am right about the tweeter (in your system). I agree that it... |
