anyone heard the new plinius hiato?
This Kiwi dude is basically like a spam reviewer. He has posted the same review at every possible place he can do so - he must have dated a Plinius employee and had a bad breakup.His review is also entirely too wordy. 
Van Halen or Van Hagar
I'm always amazed at how many people don't seem to pay attention to Fair Warning.Ask most musicians who study Van Halen closely, and they'll tell you that Fair Warning was where they were absolutely on fire - especially Eddie.The first album is gr... 
Audio Refinement Complete
Audiogabby,Dunno if it makes a big difference to you or not, but I think the main thing with the Alpha version is that it has a preamp out, and the original does not.It's hard to imagine anything beating this integrated in that price range. 
Name your lame duck artist........
Certainly for the last 10 years, I'd have to go with Kayne West.But he's laughing all the way to the bank. 
Name your lame duck artist........
Krell1,All of the other bands you mention have given Metallica gigantic heaps of recognition for their influence. And it is one behemoth of an influence.If you're actually going to badmouth Metallica's first four records while exalting the joys of... 
B&W vs Vandersteen?
Antonkk, I have 2Ce Signatures - are the terminal screws different between the two? 
B&W vs Vandersteen?
Antonkk,Not sure what you mean when you say that the connectors on Vandy's require specially fitted spades.I'm using spades made by freaking Blue Jeans Cable, and they're large, but fit just fine.You should be able to try any cable under the sun. 
Vandersteen vs. JBL rock music etc.
I think a lot of people whose first love is rock music (sorry to use such a general term) have listened through exaggerated, harsh speakers for years. Heaven knows I did.When Zeppelin, Kiss, Queen, etc. are played through Vandersteens, it can thro... 
Vandersteen vs. JBL rock music etc.
I use a 175-watt Plinius with my 2Ce Signatures, and I can guarantee that they will rock very loudly with the right amplifier.Definitely doesn't leave anything to be desired. 
Dedicated Circuit - Quad Receptacle Question
Dlcockrum, you mentioned having the appliances on the phase opposite the audio lines.If my music room breaker is on the left side of the panel, and all noisy stuff is on the right side (AC, washer, dryer, fridge), is this already a done deal? 
Dedicated Circuit - Quad Receptacle Question
Jea48, that is much appreciated.Definitely not doing this kind of work myself! 
Best LP cover and record protection
I get mine from Soundsource in Los Angeles - it's the highest quality I've found.They also sell the rounded (at the bottom) Japanese innersleeves, which do the job very well - and cost a lot less than the MoFi innersleeves.http://soundsourcecds.co... 
Plinius 9100 vs Luxman L-505U
Kiza - your response about Rotel surpassing Plinius gear is particularly interesting since you recently sold a 9100 integrated on Audiogon.Your reason for selling was because you were moving up to Plinius separates. Here's the link, in case this e...

Another recommendation for Plinius (it's what I use with my 2Ce Signatures)...
