| Changing racks from Grand Prix to home made?? If you are competent at your craft, surely it will turn out great--it will meet your own high standards and work with your environment better than stock shelving. Go for it! Post pics when done, please. | |
| ARC LS25 with PASS X250 - bad match? Seems bright. Marktomaras, about the X1, the only way to know how it might interface is to try in your system. Too many variables to know otherwise--cables, speakers, room, etc, in addition to the impedence of the pre to the amp. I will say that the X1 is voice... | |
| Black Keys on CBS Sunday Morning Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed seeing them go back to their old school. I put on my El Camino record store day edition 45 rpm vinyl and turned it to "11". What a great pressing. | |
| ARC LS25 with PASS X250 - bad match? Seems bright. X1 is not the right choice to warm up your system. The xp series would be a better choice. Or BAT or Cary or Conrad Johnson for tubes. | |
| McIntosh C220 Remote Contol Replacement Logitech remotes, Harmony 1 is great. But they make simpler and cheaper ones and you can program almost any component from your computer. | |
| Fuse burned out in shipping? ? Do a PayPal dispute immediately. They will put a hold on the money. That will get him to do something. Doesn't sound like he wants to work with you. If you bought here you can initiate a dispute as well. Keep us posted. | |

| Pass XP-10 and Jeff Rowland Capri pre If you do a search for "Capri" in the forum search you will find a thread about this exact comparison, with a lot of comments. I have used both the Capri and now use the XP10 in my system after trying a LOT of preamps (Adcom GFP 750, BAT 32, Aesth... | |

| VPI HW 16,5 vs. Okki Nokki The VPI is a great machine. Proven and works with great support. I just replaced a spin clean and there is no doubt the Vpi works much better. Get one and don't look back. | |
