| Man in need of new music As a newbie to Classical as well, I have aquired the folling recordings on SACD that have appealed to my tatses and are recorded well. The music of Paul Dukas/Jesus Lopez-Cobos; Beethoven/Kurt Maser; I have also like the works of Hovannes although... | |
| Emotiva Amps and Processor for Home Theater? I heard them at RMAf and was very impressed with the price tag in mind. I think they offer a tremendous value and they seem to have a good marketing approach. | |
| Do not buy any Sonus Faber used Are you sure they aren't referring to warranty issues? That would make sense and be in line with everyone else. Surely they understand that some people sell their current speakers in order to buy new Sonus Fabers. I would want to hear it from them... | |
| Has LED caught up to Plasma? To clarify, the rumor I heard was that Panasonic and Sony would quit making TV's of all types. I don't think Sony has made a plasma for quite sometime. I hope it is only a rumor as my next TV was going to be a Panasonic. | |
| Has LED caught up to Plasma? In a word, no. Plasma is still the closest display to the standards set by direct view CRT. I too have high hopes on the OLED technology and hope that my current tv holds out till the OLED tv's are priced low enough for me to afford.I have looked ... | |
| Best way to clean/scratch polish a CD/DVD/SACD? Griots Garage has a plastic polish and scratch remover that I have had good luck with. Also Novus products are good. | |
| Best alternative for my surrounds Personally I would stay within the Paragigm line and try to match the "voice" as much as you can. | |
| CD-format to be abandoned by major labels by the e As long as there is a profit at the end of the CD tunnel, we will have CD's. | |
| Decent cartridge for Linn LP12 with Ittok LVII I recommend any of the Lyra cartridges. I had a Troika on my Ekos before I bought a Delos then upgraded to a Kleos and either Lyra just made the table sing. | |
| ARC LS-27 or ARC ref-3 I was wanting buy a REF3 but after speaking the Dave Gordon and Calvin from ARC at RMAF, I will wait to buy the LS27. The implimentation of improvements they gained in the design of the REF5 have filtered their way into the design of the LS27. Fro... | |
| Should cable elevators be used? The concern I have always understood is static electricity.If you can generate static electic shock with your wool carpet then use risers. Personally I would use them anyway.But anything that raises and isolates will work. I use Cable Clamps avail... | |
| RFI from steel TV bracket? What all do you have connected to the TV? Are you using a Pre-pro that you can connect everything to then just run HDMI from the Pre-Pro to the TV? If you are running analog IC's to the TV and they are picking up interference from the AC cable the... | |
| RFI from steel TV bracket? If I understand this you just installed the TV mount onthe wall. Is there any chance a screw cut into your Romex in the wall and is hitting a grownd wire? I would say try removing a screw at a time and check for the hum. It just odd that an LED Tv... | |
| RFI from steel TV bracket? My first thought is; it's not the rack but the TV. Try lifting the ground to the TV. Or possibly pluging the TV into a known different circuit that is on the opposite phase of the balance of your system. One other suggestion if you feel it is the ... | |
| Record Cleaner Fluid suggestions I use L'Art du Son and do a rinse cycle as a extra measure of assurance that all cleaning fluid is removed. But a freind of mine uses it as well and he never rinses and claims good results. Have you tried not rinsing? |
