| Future of DVD-A IMO both sacd and dvd-a are dead. And I think dvd-a is deader, in terms of new releases. | |
| Amperex 6922 overkill? $400 for any tube is overkill. I agree with illenema2. Plus I would be concerned about how 'new' in terms of tube use the nos were. IMO this is where 'audio' merges into 'wine' and that's fine, but it's not the same hobby anymore at that point. Go... | |

| Using Double Preamplification vs X10D V3 Why not reverse the order of the preamps? Why not add a third? | |
| Using Double Preamplification vs X10D V3 They make hybrid preamps--Curcico mods of dynas for example. If it takes two to do it, my bet is that somewhere there is one single preamp that will do the same thing as well, better, cheaper for sure. | |
| Using Double Preamplification vs X10D V3 A good tube preamp can handle all the input output of the ss preamp. I can't understand why in the world you wouldn't just ditch the ss preamp altogether in favor of the tube preamp. The point of the x10 is that it is cheap compared to a full blow... | |
| VooDoo Cables ? Just happens to be a new posting for vd cables. ....... | |
| Weird Setup - Will it Work? Elevick's is the best solution. Do the 'complex' set up of the receiver for her, show her how to use it and let it go. Most people are not audiophiles or tinkerers. Give her the convenience she wants and she will be happy! | |
| Opinion on Turntable & Transport / DAC. Trouble is, the 'current day gear' criteria would apply to the turntable/arm/cartridge/phono preamp also. And you can now drop at least $100k on the analogue stuff. Plus the modern pressings (at $30 a pop) need to be factored in. I have never hear... | |
| Isolation of my chair, am I crazy??? Ever gone to a concert in a building made of wood? Wittgentsein said that explanation comes to an end (someplace) and I believe the same is true of tweaking. Sounds like you're having fun, though. | |
| Speaker Placement Tips. Is it a full, queen or king size bed? Add 6 to 12 inches on either side of the bed and go for it. | |
| bass problem in a sailboat If you remount the speakers (tightly, waterproof, sealed well) in the bottom (hull?) of the boat so that the water itself acts as a cushion, this will provide just what you want. Not many people have the opportunity you have to use huge quantities... | |
| Hey, we don't get no respect 'Music lover' is one category. 'Audiophile' is another. That parses out to four possibilities, none of which are contradictions: 'Music lover/Audiophile', 'Music lover/non-audiophile' (which, btw, would include a whole lot of people in the history... | |
| Trying to get back into Lps, I seem to be throwing In my experience, bass is one of cd's strengths compared to LP, so if that's your focus you're possibly in trouble. Lp's--even done cheaply (I have a very old Thorens table and a $50 cartridge)--have a quality of 'aliveness' that I don't find in c... | |
