CD Players: Stop breaking down My Oppo BDP-95 works fine, but the transport, while fine for the price, does not inspire great confidence in me that it is built for the long haul. There are probably threads about which transports last longest. You could also see if you can buy a... | |
Why are CD's decling in quality? There is cdJapan:http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/index.htmlfor the widest selection. They are in Japan and I've never ordered from them so I can't comment on their service, delivery time, etc.To the op's question, I borrow cds from the library from time ... | |

Primaluna ProLogue Five VS. Classe CA-150 If you can tell us what speakers you have and what the impedance and sensitivity of your speakers are we could probably help you more. The PrimaLunas are good amps and can probably have enough power for you but likely at the cost of some control i... | |

Speaker Set-Up: Use of a Plumb Bob I often read about people with much more experienced ears than my own making 1/16th or 1/8th inch adjustments to their speaker positions until "everything snaps into focus."If that's the case, then wouldn't one have to have his head in exactly the... | |
Where's Digital playback at today ? The Esoteric K series have received good reviews from both magazines and users. The K-03 and K-05 can be purchased for under $8,000 used.Another option is that Sony has just come out with a player, the HAP-Z1ES ($2,000), that plays DSD and PCM dow... | |

When to power off a tube amp? Highroller, whenever this topic comes up there is disagreement. I haven't seen one of these discussions come to an agreement anyway.Personally, I think the preponderance of the evidence indicates that you should turn your tube preamp off if you ar... |
