| Preamps in general Yes and no. Digital technology is still evolving; so that part of the preamp may be obsolete in a couple years, regardless of how good it is today. A great 2 channel preamp that can accomodate a external digital decoder that can be upgraded or rep... | |
| Vandersteen or REL or.......?????? Think small They are both very nice subs. The REL will be the easiest to integrate with your system. Search other threads and you will find that RELs are the most popular audiophile subs on the planet. | |
| Integrated tube amps that have CJ CAV50 sound? Buy used. A used CAV-50 will probably be $1500 to $1600. | |
| Audiogon Ethics Most of us here are honest and stand behind what we trade. On used gear, unless the seller provides you with their original receipt, you have no idea how many owners there has been. There are some terrible original owners, who don't take care of t... | |
| Audiogon Ethics It really is hard to tell I guess. I am an audio pack rat. I currently have 5 tuners in my possession and among them there are on 3 different models. I just sold one of my two MSB P1000 power bases. I have 3 pairs of the same Siltech cables, some ... | |
| NHT 2.9 or B&W CDM9NT The best thing for you to do is ignore all the advise and go listen for yourself. There are no many variables that go into why things sound the way they do, you can get a rough idea of what is good and what is not from our recommendations, but tha... | |
| harmonic technology power cord I guess as always; your results may vary. I found the AC-11 to be slightly grainy (in my system anyway). | |
| Speaker Termination for dummies Spades look like two prong flat forks. You could also use pins which are a single flat piece of gold plated metal. For bananas, your speaker terminals on your receiver need to have a round hole in the back to plug the banana into.For a long run of... | |

| Great music in bad commercials - what can you do? I agree with you Onhwy61, I just found the part about Byrne interesting. More power to him. Money still talks.The only one that seemed unsettling to me was Martin Luther King's family selling his legacy to a telecommunications company. Imagine sch... | |
| Y Splitter for Bi-Amping? I would check with the manufacturer of your preamp. | |
| Enthusiastic but Disinterested Recommendation I've heard great things about Don. It does seem like it takes months for him to answer emails if at all. He is probably very busy and I know he teaches at a college. | |
| Great music in bad commercials - what can you do? I agree about the Beethoven. It is used by others also. I think it is a crime against humanity. I guess when it is in the public domain we are going to get this from time to time.Beethoven's prototype for the 9th symphony the Choral Fantasy, has t... | |
| Are you allowed to increase the selling price ? What actually happens a lot are ads for sale on Agon and the same item for auction on eBay. Like the new in box pair of B&W Nautilus 803 speakers from North Carolina going on now. The high bid is now more than the asking price on the Agon ad.W... | |
| Choral music with soulful rythum and energy The Meyerhoff is the home of the Baltimore Symphony. We will be performing with them this coming July 12th; Beethoven's 9th Symphony. |
