| Any good and cheap CD racks? Tree Designs has about the best deal going on high quality, minimal assembly racks. They're solid oak, or poplar for slightly less, and the prices are better than Boltz. I have a 250 cap. one in black that's very solid. And the WAF requires that i... | |
| I need your help - DVD sound... You might take a look at this review:http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volume_7_4/dvd-benchmark-pioneer-dv09-dvd-player-10-2000.htmlThey didn't love its results on the bench- the frequency response curve was poor. | |
| Does Muse 9S play DVD-A s? Hey, I traded e-mails with Kevin Halverson a while back. His comment was that the original 9 would not do CD-R's. Are you (Narrod, I guess) saying that the native 9 Signature's will? I read in the Ultimate Audio review that the 9S uses a Matsushit... | |
| Absolute Best DVD Player? Hey no_money, which CAL did you compare the 9000es to? | |
| Have ARC LS-16 Pre- what to upgrade to?? If you're talking about features and this price range, what about a SF Line 3? I don't have any direct comparison sound-wise between the two, but my understanding is that the Line 3 is top-notch (I have a Line 1 myself, that I greatly enjoy). | |
| Muse 9 Opinions? Haven't actually played with one to have an opinion, but I noticed that the current issue of Hi Fi News reviews it, and the soon-to-be-released issue of Ultimate Audio reviews the 9 Signature. | |
| Feedback on "Boltz" CD racks If you're not set on Boltz look, I'd suggest checking out Tree Designs (http://www.treedesigns.com, no affiliation). One of their solid oak 1000-disc units is $350, including shipping east of the Mississippi. By comparison, the Boltz CD-1200 is $3... | |
| Hints on soldering IC's Hey, Anubis, get thee over to Audio Asylum's cable forum or Jon Risch's DIY interconnect page. I think they don't use voodoo to make their IC's. If you have the right soldering iron and good silver solder (not Radio Shack), it should be fairly eas... | |
| Supplies for cable building It's actually http://www.partsconnection.on.ca. Also, there's Jon Risch's DIY cable page at NBCi (search for his name at Yahoo and you'll find a link to it). Wellborne Labs also sells cable parts, though with a smaller selection of bulk cable to c... | |
| what is everybody listening to right now Definitely have to agree with the praise for 'Kid A.' Also listening to Yo La Tengo's 'And then nothing turned itself inside out' and 'I can feel the heart beating as one.' They put on a great live show, too. Aimee Mann's 'Bachelor No. 2' sounds v... | |
| Top Ten Tuners of all Time?? I'd like to hear about what folks think of the last higher quality tuner from Yamaha, the TX-950. Also, what about Fanfare? Thanks. | |
| All-time best recordings for romance About 6 years ago or so, Sarah McLachlan was quoted in a blurb in Rolling Stone saying that Peter Gabriel's "Passion" was her favorite music to make love to. I can't fault her taste. | |
| California Audio CL-2500 SSP Widescreen Review did a review of the CAL SSP, VSW video switch, and MCA multichannel amp(http://www.widescreenreview.com). I think Audiogon users don't regard them very highly as reviewers, but that's the only review I've seen. Because the SSP an... | |
| Pre-AMP for Audio Research D-300 AMP I have a used ARC D200 amp that I've paired with a Sonic Frontiers Line 1 (tube) preamp. My speakers are an old pair of KEF 104/2's, and I use Kimber PBJ w/ XLRs between the amp/preamp and DH Labs T-14 to the speakers. My front end, which I hope t... |
