Speakers Needed: Audiophile Taste - Low Budget Try and find a pair of the Sound Dynamics 300ti loudspeakers on the net. It may be a difficult task, but if you are patient and end up purchasing these speakers, you won't look back. I have a pair connected to about $11,000 worth of electronics. .... | |

"Speakers" always up for sale--Poor Performers?? Sunny:It's called OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder). These people are never satisfied and are always obsessed with looking to the cutting edge and beyond. In my opinion, a most unsatisfying way of life! | |
Speakers around 20k Try Legacy's Focus (only $6,000), however, to my ears they are as good as 2, 3, and 4 listed above and you save $14,000 for that reference amp and preamp you will need to drive these beauties! | |
LISTENER Magazine...What Do You Think? I think the Mag is mostly lame w/reviews that are not very well fleshed out on lame equipment. | |
Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? 1. I drive a 1996 Nissan Maxima tricked out with a full Eclipse DDL/GFO custom installed Hi-Fi.2. Newer Nissan Maxima.3. Porsche 930 turbo or Ferrari GTO | |

Should I repair Stax DA-80 or just buy new amp? Fix it (with modern parts) and it will sing again probably even better than before. It has a good design keep it | |
I am picky about this, any suggestions??? I would check out the Ayre V-3 power amplifier (should be able to get one on the net with all upgrades for about $1900) and the conrad-johnson PFR preamp(about $1100 used). These pieces together are VERY musical (if that is what you are looking fo... | |
Digital seperates, better than single player? Not always. Listen before you buy!!!Good luck. | |
Tube Dampers If you want the best for your preamp tubes (e.g. 6922s or the like)try and find the Tophat tube damper from the former Rightway Audio Company. Be patient, for these are not easy to find used and are not cheap either, but there are none better than... | |
