| Jadis Eurythmie - Anyone ever listen to them? Thank you for the kind words sirspeedy. Music is definitely something which can enrich one's life on a daily basis - I wish I had more time to listen! I actually hadn't updated my system description for almost 5yrs so took the opportunity presente... | |
| CEC Who are they? I wasn't sure how I'd noted they had an analog background but originally (in the 1950s), Chuo Denki manufactured turntable motors, and later (later in the 1950s) manaufactured turntables on an OEM basis. | |
| CEC Who are they? Try here for the Canadian distributors of CEC. | |
| CEC Who are they? A translation of various parts of the CEC website suggests that the company may have been a subsidiary or affiliate of Sanyo Electric well before Chuo Denki's audio business was transferred to Sanyo Optronics Ltd. (Sanyo Electric Co.'s optical dri... | |
| Jadis Eurythmie - Anyone ever listen to them? The answer: a hair more than the current average asking price of a pair of Avantgarde Duos with subs in the U.S. Whether that qualifies them (or me) as "cheap" is more about context.The context: 1) Every other pair (save one) that I have seen for ... | |
| Jadis Eurythmie - Anyone ever listen to them? Atrahern, thanks for the kind words, though as much as I would love to be able to say that the combined sonics and beauty were such that I had to have them at any price, alas it would not be the case - I'm cheap. Though your comment brings up an i... | |

| Thoughts on Plasma, LCD, DLP and which way to go I live in Tokyo, the land of doodadegadgetry, and have recently undertaken The Quest For The Appropriate Large Flat Panel Display. I chose a 50" plasma (Pioneer 535) because while the HDTV picture on the Sharp 45" LCD is good for high-definition v... | |
| Absolutely beautiful gear Jadis Eurythmie speakers...They sound nice too :^) | |
| Very BIG Room? Music and Home Theatre Challenge Hi cw, (long time no chat)The best speakers i have heard in a REALLY big room are Avantgarde Trios/Basshorns and the new MetaPrimos (preferred the Trios/BHs to MPs - bass on an array of BHs is magnificent). I love the way large horns can "project.... | |
| Speakers to hang on to for LIFE Oneobgyn, you have obviously spent much time and effort putting together a beautiful system; but if the Wilson X-2s are the penultimate speakers, what are the ultimate speakers? | |
| ACAPPELLA CD RECOMMENDATIONS Narrod, it wouldn't be the first time my recollection has failed me and won't be the last. I will dig it up and put it on tonight and see what's what. Thanks! | |
| iPod nano caution: incredibly delicate finish If people have not already used it, one ipod "accessory" I find indispensible is SENUTI (google it and it'll pop up on top). It's the software Apple should have written but now that it is out, they won't ever include it. It makes reloading a whole... | |
| ACAPPELLA CD RECOMMENDATIONS I second the Fairfield Four, but would suggest that "Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray" is more 'accessible' (Standing in the Safety Zone is classic but it sounds as if it is mostly recorded off old 45s and while it's great gospel, the recording quality o... | |
| Kenwood L-02 tuner actually a unicorn FWIW, in Japan, they show up on the used market from time to time. The FM band here in Japan goes from 76-90, making it useless in most other places. If I knew a) how to get the band widened for reception purposes, and b) get the dial and dial lab... |
