| Most sophisticated and intelligent musician David Gilmour, Al Dimeola, Neil Pert, Tony Levin, Agree with Knopfler, Clapton,maybe you should have narrowed it by instrument. Names just keep popping in my head. | |
| Ayre Gear vs. Linn Gear I have heard both at the dealer that I do most of my business. Although he is no longer a Ayre dealer he continues the Linn line. I think that on the digital side that the upper Linn seems to deliver more information but the Ayre presents it in a ... | |
| New Wilson Sasha VS Wilson Audio Sophia 2 I have heard both in a direct AB comp with the dealer switching the speaker wire from Sophia to Sasha and I agree the Sashas are clearly better in every dimension.But there is also a 10K price differnce as well. I would say that you could probably... | |
| Cowboy Junkies on Classic Records Trinity Sessions I agree that the Classic Pressings seemed to decline in quality as they progressed. Once they had the Led Zep, Peter Gabriel, and Creedance catalogs they were just over priced rice crispies. I trust the MoFi releases and have been very happy with ... | |
| Tube amp on/off: best practice? My thought is off, but tube sales people encourage you leave them on. The advice I have always received is Solid State stay on and Tube off. You will undoubtedly get a mix of responses, I will be interested to see the opinion of majority. | |
| RMAF Anyone? StereomaniacI sat in the fifth or sixth row. It was the first RMAF and I haven't gone to a live show at RMAF since. Once you eat dessert, it's just hotdog and chips after that. I only wish I had bought tickets to each performance that night as I u... | |
| Should Equalizers make a comeback? I guess in some equipment they have taken it a step further with Auto Room Correction. I personnaly like tone controls but my surrent pre-amp doesn't have it. I had a McIntosh that did and on some recordings I wish I could attentuate the treble. S... | |
| RMAF Anyone? Been every year since show one. Too bad Patricia Barber doesn't come back. | |

| Faint click from speakers You might try plugging direct into the wall and bypassing the Quintet. You say it is a new house so try another outlet on a different circuit. Could be a grounding issue or rfi/emi issue on a particular circuit that is shared with dimmer or simila... | |
| hifi interconnect good for sub I use a XLO reference series (no longer made but available used) and have been very happy. I tried AQ, Wireworld,Monster,Harmonic Tech and a couple others before I settled on this and it seems to be very direct and deep.I am using a Velodyne DD12 | |
| Do power cords make an audible difference? Simple answer is it is system and person dependant. Get you dealer to let you do an in home demo. I have had a positive result. Others will say not. In the end please your ears as much as your budget will permit. As Danib1 states this subject brin... | |
| linn 1.1 won' t initialize As mentioned by Tobias if the re-boot doesn't reset it, it will have to go in to Linn. I almost bought my dealers demo once untill he expalined it had been back to Linn 3 times. Great sounding player but it makes me wonder why Linn really dropped ... | |
| Direct TV and digital hum problems Is this the only digital input being used on his pre/pro.If it is try a digital connect to his CDP, it may be his Pre/Pro. One other thought is phone line, did you hook up the phone line as DTV so loves us to do. Disconnect it and see what happens... |
