| How often should you re-calibrate your ears? If live were still where it's at, we'd be accessing ticketron instead of audiogon. | |
| Experience with Musical Fidelity X10V3 Tube Buffer I don't know whether your preamp is tube or not..sounds like it is. If so, I don't see any reason for the tube buffer. I have never heard one, but I was tempted to by its predecessor until I scored a line level Cary preamp here on audiogon (a very... | |
| Reliability of Cary Audio Products Herman....insofar as your analysis is true, it would have to apply to your own comments, thus making them "close to worthless" (to use your own words). Only a very small number of actual audiophiles will reply to any given post, including the Cary... | |
| Problems with shipping to Canada After one rough experience, I would not buy anything from Canada. Shipping, customs, etc..a pain. | |
| Jolida CDP question I believe that 99.999% of audio systems would 'shriek mechanical reproduction of music' if compared to live harp music (or most anything else live). It's not nice to fool Mother Nature and she, after all, developed the ear/brain/mind that we use t... | |
| Which musician retired too soon? Beethoven | |
| Fake plants behind speakers a good idea? If your system is really, really good (excellent), then use fake plants and you will be pleased with how the good sound actually makes them grow! | |
| Man, am i losing my hearing? To go along with what Rives said, even M16's can mess you up because they are so close to the ears. At least that seemed to be my experience..many many years ago. And as others have said,, wait till you hit or pass 50! Say what? | |
| Reading Vs Listening to Learn Piano Learning to read vs learning to read/playing piano: while there probably is some part of the brain hardwired for music in some sense, for sure the brain is hardwired for language. You learn to read because you already know the language and its rul... | |
| Delima Classic95--it serves him right..He who lives by the spelling rules dies by them too. | |
| Has Anyone Been Humbusted? It's expensive, and it's extremely specialized, but I have found that the Dickens HumEradicator solves the xmas tree lites problem. Has to be shipped from England, so probably won't help you this year. Be warned: it ruins the sound of any system w... | |
| Old Vandy 2Cs worth the cheap price for starter? Yup! I have had a pair of 2C's going on 18 years and I can't part with them...Im not sure how much I would have to spend to significantly beat them--but it could be beyond my price range. I bought mine new for $1100 or so and they've worked great ... | |
| That nice, unforced, relaxed, easeful sound ?? I get it at every live classical concert I go to. | |
| Preamp w/ no A/V bypass There should be no problem with two preamps in a row--at least not the problem you are having. Does the a/v list the specs for its preamp out? Is it around 2 volts? The double preamp set up should make the volume way to HIGH, not low. I would trus... | |
| How do you shield a Center speaker? You shield it by not letting it read trashy novels, by being careful about the music you play on it and by really limiting what it sees on TV. |
