| How to respond to those who say it's not a hobby? The following is something that I posted a while ago that I am probably most happy with:Always remember that Music is Art. Our music systems are effectively windows that allow us to experience this art. The more you like the sound/music your music... | |
| Can Ayre V3 power driven by a passive pre? Depends on the output of the source. If the output of the source is high enough it can be.One thing though.... I would highly advise ditching the Reference Line preamp. Unless you are on a really tight budget, you can get much better and more musi... | |
| If you could have 2 turntables... It all depends on how much $$$ you want to budget.KF | |
| How to respond to those who say it's not a hobby? I think the key is not to take people questioning our hobby too seriously. Once you take something seriously, you give that opinion validation.KF | |
| Review: Rega Planar-25 Turntable You have to try the Rega P9 if you ever desire to upgrade. I have the new P9 in my system, and it is a remarkable piece.KF | |
| How to respond to those who say it's not a hobby? Hmmm... Fighting over the definition of hobby.... All I have to say is be glad you are not buying $1k power cords.

| Review: Magnepan MG-3.6r Speaker Even with 2 Plinius SA100 mk3 amps run in MONO (665wpc into the Maggies), which is more power and amperage than the CAM 350, the maggies had the best bass and dynamics I have ever heard from them....Still, they were not as good in dynamics or bass... | |
| Review: Magnepan MG-3.6r Speaker I had the 3.6s for nearly 3 years and loved them a lot. I only had 3 problems with the Maggies:1 - Lack of dynamics. Compared to really nice box speakers, the maggies lack the dynamics of live music. 2 - Amazing power requirements. You have not he... | |
| Different power supplies Ayre CX-7 -important? I'd call Ayre up and talk to them about it. I know they did upgrade the power supply of the CX-7 pretty early in production.KF | |
| $3000 MF a3.2 seperates or Arye Integrated or ? If you can find a MF Nu-Vista for $3k you will be doing well... People seem to want more than that for them. There seems to be one for around $3200 for sale at Audiogon now. If you can afford it, this would probably be the best sound at that price... | |
| Queen A night at the Opera DVD Audio distortion They over-dubbed that song so many times (hundreds of times) they almost lost the original master. I will need to listen to it again (have not listened to A Night at the Opera in ages). Distorted or not, still great music though.KF | |
| Power Conditioners vs. Power Cables You can have dedicated 20 amp circuits and cryo'd outlets and even outstanding AC conditioning, and I would still say that the power cords one uses can have SERIOUS sonic impacts on the sound quality of your system. I say this because a friend of ... | |
| How Do I Start Playing With the Big Boys and Girls It all depends on your budget. How much can you spend?KF | |
| Ugliest piece of equipment that you love... The GamuT D-200 is one of the plainest amps visually one could imagine. Not ugly per se, but certainly not attractive. The D-200 mk2 is an incredible amp sonically.I love it.KF | |
| Hybrid amps, best of both worlds? The Hybrid Lamm M1.1 amps could be some of the best amps (SS/tube/or Hybrid) ever designed so far period. KF |
