| AZ Satori vrs. KKable's 12TC vrs Cardas Quad 5c Satori at the used price is one of the greatest cable bargains out there. Pick up the phone and call Robert Lee at AZ (owner, designer) and ask him for a recommendation. He's a class act and won't try to over sell you. He is familiar with lots of ... | |
| At what volume do you typically listen? Glad knweisner got my joke. Yes it's all relative. I was listening last nite at what I thought was a restrained quiet level to relax and then at breakfast everyone in my family commented at how loud it was. I do need a bit of volume to enjoy sorry... | |
| At what volume do you typically listen? Eleven! | |
| The complete Europe '72 recordings The Europe 72 tour was all recorded with 16 track. My read is that these recordings will be revived using state of the art techniques. These performances and sound quality should make these gotta have. But sorry I am not going to shell out 450 buc... | |
| Are there new players with HDCD? Many Rotel CDPs continue to support HDCD. You can also find it on Rotel and Denon AVR receiver and prepros. | |
| Bel Canto Mono Options for Center Channel M1000 is the same as the REF 1000 MkII. If you feel your power is sufficient, and this is an HT application, moving up is probably not cost effective. I have the Ref1000 MkII and I love them, but they are in my main 2 ch rig. | |
| Logitech Squeezebox vs. Sonos Hey John. I am in the FW area and have a Squeezebox Duet setup in two systems if you'd like to take a look and listen. It doesn't do hi res but you can hear how good it sounds with ripped rebook CDs. I may go touch for my main rig so I can do hi r... | |
| Have you ever got emotionally attached My Forte Model 5 amp and Model 40 preamp. I was recently married and only a couple years out of college(to my ex!) and it was right around New Years 1992. We were pretty much dirt poor, but we went into a local mid fi store (Audio Video Systems--n... | |
| Bel Canto vs Mcintosh I love my BC Ref 1000 mk2. I love the effortless power and drive, cool temps, smooth sound, clean uncolored mids, great soundstaging and delineation of detail without sounding analytical. Lots of threads here if you search archives. Not so sure ab... | |
| a good pre to end them all ? PL 3 or wyred stp se? do what the rest of us do here on audiogon--buy one and try it out, and resell if you don't like it. Or find a good local dealer who will let you do in home demo. If you can't find the equipment you want at the dealer you'll have to roll the dice ... | |
| Am I late to the Zac Brown & Jamey Johnson party? Jamey Johnson's Guitar Song on vinyl is a pretty impressive package--the first album is black vinyl, the middle is half black, half white, and the third LP is all white vinyl. However, the sound quality is not great, vocals distort and seems overl... | |
| What is better than AZ Satori in high freq? Try purist. | |
| How does a beginner turntable compare to digital ? I agree with Samuelg. I agonized. I almost bought the project debut on clearance for 299. But I realized I needed to be in the 1k range with what I have been used to with my digital setup. There are a lot of really good options. Check musicdirect ... | |
| How does a beginner turntable compare to digital ? PS: Vqlong2000: also thinking of buying bulk here in Audiogon or Ebay for a starter. How bad is that idea ? What is the chance of getting some respectable LPs in cheap that way ? I think as you begin you should avoid this method until you have mor... | |
| How does a beginner turntable compare to digital ? After growing up on my older brothers' records and 8 tracks (Kiss, Bob Seger, Zappa, Black Sabbath, Doors, Sgt Peppers, all the good stuff), I went all digital when I got one of the first CD players available in the US in 1983--the original Sony D... |
