| Rel Sub Woofers..Any Experience One of the great things about the REL's is they are very easy to integrate with any system and any listening room. They operate with your speakers. They can be adjusted at 1 Mhz intervals. There is no crossover between the preamp and power amp cut... | |
| Rel Sub Woofers..Any Experience I have a Storm III. All REL subs are amazing. | |
| Good entry level transport? There is a Cambridge Audio Transport for auction by someone on Audiogon $205. | |
| Best Monitors used under $800 If you can find the original B&W CDM-1 get them instead of the SE model. The NT are going to be $1000 to $1200 new. Probably too soon for used. The CDM-2 or DM602-S2 are good too. | |
| fm reception What kind of building are you in? Some steel and concrete buildings kill the signal. Try an antenna you can put outside somehow. | |
| Tube Pre-amp beneficial? I agree, tube pre will do what you want. Anthem may not. Anthem preamps are very good, but closer to SS sounding. I had the original CJ PV-10 (now 10a) for a while. It was great for the money. | |
| yamaha parts and availability? I've gotten great responses from the Yamaha parts department by eMail. | |
| Best Holiday CDs? Spike Jones "Let's Sing a Song of Christmas". My favorite Messiah is Trevor Pinnock. Hogwood pretty good too. | |
| High Efficiency 2 way floorstanding or B B&W P5 & P6 are 90db. I know of people running those small 6 or so watt tube amps with them. | |
| Current CD playes and transports Yeh, and Betamax is better than VHS. Apple Mac operating system better than Windows. The best format does not alway win. | |
| C-J Combo: PV-5 and MF-2100; Si or No? I think the PV10 / MF2100 combo work well together. I still have the MF2100. It is now paired with a CJ Motif Preamp. | |
| C-J Combo: PV-5 and MF-2100; Si or No? There is a PV-10 with phono on Audioshopper for $600. And a MF2100 on Audiogon for $650. | |
| C-J Combo: PV-5 and MF-2100; Si or No? I ran the PV-10 with the MF2100 for a couple years. Very nice combination. Have no personal experience with the PV-5. You can get a PV-10 and MF2100 for $1200.00 | |
| BEST Power Cable Under $100 Vansevers standard power cords. | |
| Favorite Xmas movie ? The original Miracle on 34th Street in beautiful Black & white". Not the original version Ted Turner put his crayons to. |
