| Tubes for Conrad Johnson Premier 11a ???? CJ claims that they test their tubes very carefully and even burn some of them in a little. | |
| New All in One or Just a DAC? Stan can modify any Pioneer DVD Player with the Burr Brown 24/96 chip, which I believe is all of them, whether a single or mulit-disc player, except the high end ones that play DVD-A. The Onkyo is the 525 or 535. | |
| Help -- EAD PM1000 and REL Strata III experience? It is definitely a ground hum, not RFI. | |

| New All in One or Just a DAC? Stan Warren can modify the MSB also. You could get Stan to modify a Pioneeer or Onkyo DVD Player. I have a Stan DVD in my secondary system, which also lets me watch 2 channel DVD movies when the family room is busy. | |
| Help -- EAD PM1000 and REL Strata III experience? I have the same thing with the REL Storm III. Did not happen with my old amp, but does with my Blue Circle. I just turn the sub off before the amp. | |
| Hubbell hospital grade outlets w/ surge protection Some high end amplifiers and preamplifier have power conditioning built in, so who knows. I believe many conditioners do limit power, mostly the low priced ones. There are many fine ones that do not. One of the Vansevers conditioners is even calle... | |
| Analog vs Digital Recordings Most recording today are all digital "DDD". For classical I prefer the older analog recordings "AAD" and some "ADD". FYI, The first letter is the recording, the second the mixing, the third is the final product which will always be D if on CD. | |
| best cd/dvd player in silver? May not be high end enough for you, but the very fine mid-fi Cambridge Audio D500SE comes in silver. | |
| best cd/dvd player in silver? Buy what you want and have it professionally painted silver. | |
| Help Cable is causing a Buzz/Hum in HomeTheatre Amp. You may just have a bad cable, or a cable not grounded properly for your intended use. Try another cable to see. Has happened to me. |
