| Integrated Amps: Arcam & Audio Refinement Like S7horton I also owned the Audio Refinement more than once. Would not hesitate to purchase another if circumstances required. The amp has an exquisite feel (for the price) and sounds great to boot. Haven't had the pleasure of owning an Arcam i... | |
| What is your idea of a Perfect Album? Garden State soundtrack. Perfect start to finish, good movie also. | |
| Lead on Carry That Weight I couldn't find my copy of "Beatles Songs" CMO refers to but Onhwy61 (nice name) is correct. Xiekitchen, for my money Lennon was the most expressive guitar player of the three. | |
| Lead on Carry That Weight Not sure about lead guitar but there are three separate guitar solos. John, Paul, and George each plays one. I'm not certain of the order so I could only speculate. This came from a college course on Beatles music. What a hoot that was. | |
| How to take the solder off the thread? I beleive Reubent has nailed this one. | |
| What is your idea of a Perfect Album? Pink Floyd, The Wall. It is hard to stop once the music begins. Can't say how many times I went to bed later than intended because I had to hear the ending. This doesn't count as I'm only referring to one side, but side 2 of Abbey Road works the s... | |
| Which companies also offer good service?? Another nod to Thiel. I had purchased a used pair of CS-1.5s and needed the manual. I was in Lexington so I stopped in at Thiel. They immediately produced a packet with manual and spikes. No Charge! Hard to beat that kind of service. | |
| alternative to speaker stand spikes? Wonderful to see this idea worked for someone else. It's so economical and just makes sense. Interested to hear if anyone perceives sonic benifits with costly specialty products. | |
| What's the "worst" cdp for the money? Judy426What would you consider a positive contribution to a purposefully negative thread? | |
| Low priced giant killers Said it before and I'll say it again, find a used pair of Acoustic Energy Aesprit AE-300s. Less than half what your willing to spend. Extended bass, fabric tweeter for smooth highs and natural midrange; you can't go wrong. Resell them if you don't... | |
| nice turntable that plays 78s Check Dual CS-5000 here.http://www.compassnet.com/concept/tables/5000.htm | |
| My Receiver Did What?? Hey Doug, after moving my music system into a dedicated room I had to purchase a recvr for the living room. I got a good deal on a Denon DRA-565RD. Well of course I had to check it out in my room first. It sounded just fine, hard to tell the diffe... | |
| What is the Meadowlark house sound? Sufentanil, I would agree that for the retail price there are more impressive offerings but I paid $900 for my Shearwater Hot Rods. Best bargain I've found, and belive me I look for bargains. | |
| What is the Meadowlark house sound? Search the archives as there are many recommendations for Meadowlark speakers. Since the company is now defunct, used bargains are easy to find. | |
| I'm looking for inexpensive bookshelf speakers. Acoustic Energy Aesprit 300s are great speakers at a great price. They listed for $600 new, sell for less than $300 used and are nearly full range. I've used NHT SB3s, Von Schwiekert VR-1s and a few others. The Acoustic Energys were the best by fa... |
