| "DAC DUMB" needs info. Dave:The performance vs. convenience issue is as old as it gets. If your buddy could consider living without variable outs and figure out another way to attenuate volume, the Anthem CD changer will likely outperform almost any DAC he could add to ... | |
| How much are you worth ? I can't go here, but I will say that if my accountant knew how much I had tied up in my system he would shit. Of course, I do this for a living so actually, these are occupational tools! :~) | |
| Cheapest places to buy gear? I think Toys From The Attic. What do you mean I'm biased?! | |
| The BEST system you've ever built !!!! System building is an ongoing pursuit. I find we often make changes to get a new flavor rather than an improvement (search your own soul here). I've had perfectly satisfying systems and had to make changes to adapt to a new room, rather than absol... | |
| Most Honest Audio Magazine? Positive Feedback is a great mag as well, when they decide to put out an issue. | |
| Who R U? Kelly:Nice to be joining you. When my partner and I started the company we wanted our name to do three things: 1)be memorable; 2)reflect that we would specialize in pre-owned, vintage and collectible items; and 3)be broad enough to cover multiple ... | |
| What multi channel amp sounds like a Class A two channel? Bill:I highly recommend the BAT 6200. It's performance is damn near that of the VK 500, a true Class A performer. It also is too new to find used, but it's a bargin to begin with. Please feel free to call or e-mail my store for more information on... | |
| Who R U? Alright guys...here goes. I'm in my late 30's (unless you're reading this after 2002, in which case, I'm in my early 40's!). I've loved music all my life. At age 10 I used to lock myself in my grandmothers dining room under several blankets with a... | |

| Re: Dedicated Lines I will share one of my greatest and most deep rooted philosophies of hi-end music reproduction. We ask our equipment to take moving electrons that our power company so kindly delivers to our home and transform those moving electrons into moving di... | |
| Do the Audio gods shine upon you? A couple of non spiritual (read:practicle or realistic) things to keep in mind. 1)Your electricity varies all day, every day. The more it varies, the more your system will change. I believe audiophiles in general still don't understand how importa... | |
| Vinyl or wait for the new stuff?? It seems silly to post this to a thread that's almost a year old, but...I can't resist. I've had the great pleasure of comparing top flight digital and analog front ends. Hi-end digital smokes low end digital by a long shot. Makes the unlistenable... | |
| The famous or not so famous Grado wobble Rwd:An LP-12 on a light wooden table on a wood floor is a formula for wobble. A wall shelf is the best alternative, preferably on an outside wall. While the suspension on the Linn is very good, the system is suseptible to vibration in ways a VPI, ... | |
| Eggleston Works Fontaines Shane:The Fontaine's are a marvelous speaker. When used on the Eggleston stand the in room bass responce is remarkable for a "monitor". They are incredibly well built, beautiful, and easy to drive, which makes them a good choice for a tube integra... |
