is the McIntosh MAC 3 surr.decoder sacd compatib?
I had a MAC 3 years ago and traded up to a MCD4 but I don't remember if the MAC 3 had 6 analog inputs. I don't beleive it does. But your pre-amp must if you are using it. You will have to plug the SACD/DVD-A directly into the pre-amp. The mac 3 is... 
Rega -Deep Groove Replacement Subplatter
Thanks Folks, I guess I better place an order, I looked on the web for sellers but it appears music direct is the only distributor unless some knows of another. Always looking for a bargain. 
Best Neil Young Album?
Second on Freedom but a toss up with Harvest Gold 
Carbon Fiber Brushes
I have a little brush shaped like a wisk broom I got from Raskins that is made in Japan. I don't know the brand other than SFC is one the otherwise japenese label. But it works great and I haven't used the carbon fibre since. 
Acoustic ceiling paint???
I remember an episode on This Old House a few years back where the homeowner was a musician and he did some kind of special treatment and paint that worked with the surface. Maybe you can search an archive and find what they used or possibly e-mai... 
Dual-Disc Destined to fail?This reporter thinks so
I hear vinyl might survive the format war. And you can play both sides! 
Jacintha, anyone???
Second, Here's to Ben if you only want one. But once you buy Here's to Ben you be back for more. Then get Autumn Leaves. 
Is it worth purchasing the VPI 16.5?
I sold my NG 1.5 in order to get the VPI and am very pleased in my decision to do so. Much easier to work with and it does a fine job on all vinyl I have cleaned. I agree with Raytheprinter on the brush though. I prefer the Disc Doctor brush but I... 
Mcintosh MA6900 power meter bulb replacement
I have done this a few times on my 7205 and 352 and I can tell you that if you're going to do it yourself. Aquire a de-soldering tool from Radio Shack for about 15.00. This is the best way to remove the old bulbs without getting the traces on the ... 
Velodyne DD Series
I own the DD12 and I beleive they should be adjustable to the same "speed" . The servo control should be the same. 
Norah Jones?
I agree with Zargon. She was fine in the beginning but as time passed, I found her to be dry and lacking emotion in her delivery. Would you like to buy a vinyl pressing of her first LP? 
"Bedini Ultra Clarifier", does it really work??
Jea48Thanks for your reply. I see a lot of unbelievers here but I have a box of tweeks that don't work. I think this one is worth a try. What the hell it is for the betterment of audio right! 
"Bedini Ultra Clarifier", does it really work??
I am considering the purcahse of a Clarifier as the dealer states the same " I don't know how but it does" But he has indicated that the disc be treated for each playing is that the case with your experience? 
Spade's Or Banana's on Double run from Integrated
With a std binding post why not try one cable with a bananas and the other with a spade? It is configuration I am considering on my current bi-wire. Right now I have both run together into one Audioquest Banana, which Timrhu mentions, those are be... 
Could somebody please explain
I agree with Dubin...on the labeling part, not the snob. I think it just gets grouped in a genre unknowingly. To me I have always felt that eclectic was another word for "new age" without any further implications, I guess to keep from association ...
