| does your system "warm up" and then sound better? Yes, I find especially when listening to vinyl, that the cartridge requires one album side to come out of it's hibernation mode. I feel that the amps and pre-amp get better as they reach operating temperature as well. | |
| Set up Michell Technoweight What cratrideg are you using? It may be too light for use with the Technoweight. I had one on a RB600 with a Lyra LydianB and it has been a while but I seem to remember having an issue with this. If the weight is as close to the tonearm base as yo... | |
| RMAF 2012 Postmortem Mrtennis:Sanders and Magnepan. I was very very impressed with the Sanders. Really have intergrated the sub well and the bass came thru extremely well. I didn't hear the Maggies but one thing I noticed is how many speakers are using the planar or A... | |
| RMAF 2012 Postmortem I have attended every year since the inception of RMAF and I found this year to be a little disappointing in some of the manfacturers that weren't there. However, I did enjoy seeing/hearing some products that I had not seen before. Adam-Audio stan... | |
| MBL 101e mk II :-O I have to agree, as I made two visits to that room myself. I heard them last year and it was a room I definitely wanted to hear again. And the larger room was a big plus. But I am way too financially deprived to afford a pair. But if I continue to... | |
| Mcintosh MC501 or MC 352 for Sonus Faber Cremona If you can afford it go with the 501's, if budget is the issue then the 352 is a good amp. I owned one for yrs. If you can swing a 402 it does have abetter power supply thna that used in the 352. But the 501's will sound the best. | |
| Older Anthem D2 or new Marantz? I'd go with the newest marantz you can afford. get the latest technology. As an owner of a D2v I really think in the end that the processing may vary from unit to unit. But you can adjust it to your rooms needs and please your ears. The HDMI 1.4 w... | |
| Supertramp I have a sealed copy of Paris as a back up to my nearly worn out copy. Great album. Also a big fan of Crime of the Century and Some things Never Change. | |
| What city do you live in? Third house on the left from the corner of walk and don't walk. | |
| C2300 preamp I would keep the 2300. It has received very good reviews and is newer technology and has the latest McIntosh designs. And you own it. Sell the32 and buy your wife a thank you gift. | |
| Why do my rolling stones albums sound bad? I can't get no satisfaction! | |
| McIntosh C50 preamp with Pass Labs Class A amp I haven't heard the combo but have heard the C50 and was very impressed. But I have had many Mc pre-amps/pre-pros and amps and am accustomed to the McIntosh sound. I have heard the pass amps at RMAF and never heard anything I didn't like, except t... | |
| Ebay LP Purchases I have purchased one LP from a seller on Ebay and that was my last purchase. The album was not as represented in the ad, and the cost was not worth the shipping back nor the time to obtain a refund. But it was a good inexpensive lesson. I have bou... | |
| R.I.P. Andy Williams I hate to admit this but I saw him live in Hawaii back 1968. My mother was a big fan and we were there on vacation so I went with her. I just remember he did a long show but truthfully don't remember much else I was pretty young. It was night and ... | |
| WHAT TV SHOULD I GET RIGHT NOW? Panasonic VT50 series plasma or JVC Black SapphireLCD/LED are the two best pictures I have seen in my shopping. Don't waste the money on the Sharp Elite from what I can tell the Elite is just a higher end Sharp with fancy trim and higher price. Al... |
