Amp for my Vienna Acoustic Haydns? As much as I love the ARC CA-50 integrated amp (one of the best integrated amps made), I'd go for something with a bit more power. Tell us me your budget and I will make a recommendation.I am pretty familiar with Vienna speakers, I drive a pair of... | |
I'm taking votes No digital is worth $20k when it will probably be surpassed in 2 years or so for probably a lot less. I am sure the CD12 is an awesome CD player, but there is other digital that will get you close for less. Even a lot less. Unless I had about $12k... | |
neutrality vs. realism I think this thread might better be called Neutrality vs. Musicality.However, before I start, I must reiterate a tirade that I get into everytime folks start talking about realism. We must always remember that on every recording we play on our won... | |

What do you think about this cable company? Ok, Trelja, ya gotta spill the beans. I do not like naming specific companies I am critical of (per se), but whenever a company does something positive, I name them and give them the recognition they deserve.What company did you have this positive... | |

What do you think about this cable company? Even with a discount these cables were expensive. However, I would have reviewed them from a NEUTRAL position. I had little insentive to like them since I would have had to sell my QF and SPM to get them (and pay a bit more). Why would I review th... | |
Alon II MK2 vs Thiel 2.3: Best Value "Used"?? The Thiel is a bit more refined sounding speaker than the Alon.I have the Alon II mk2's and they are a well rounded speaker.
