| Worth purchasing infinity irs III without the emit towers? It’s your decision, and it sounds like you really want them. Just remember, there is a lot of math and engineering that goes into designing speakers that work well together. You may drive yourself crazy trying to find an external crossover and mid... | |
| GARY BEDINI and JOHN BEDINI have passed on 11-6-16 To rondad,It’s a fair question. Anyone reading the initial posting would wonder about the strange coincidence of two brothers dying within a short period of time. | |
| B&W Matrix 801 Series II speaker spikes Those are nice speakers. I seem to remember that whenever I saw them for sale they would have Sound Anchor stands available. You might check to see if they are still in business. I’m sure you can find them for sale somewhere online. | |
| There used to be a guy who repaired and updated Sony SCD-1 players. FWIW, I bought a cartridge from Warren several years ago. He worked out of a secure warehouse in San Leandro. If he can’t help you, he will tell you immediately. He did mods on certain Sony pieces, not all of them. I had a very expensive Sony two-... | |
| price of Oppo players threw the roof Shortage creates demand. Simple economics. | |
| Looking for a warm sweet speaker Used Sonus Fabers should fit your taste, and your budget. | |
| OPPO BDP 103/105, sound quality??? FWIW, I have never put much stock in tweaks, or upgrades, believing that they are just snake oil. That was my error. I had my Denon 3520 (from the early 90’s) modded recently and it is like a new machine. I would never attempt upgrades myself but ... | |
| headphones-amp combination Since my last comment in 2011, I have purchased a pair of Stax 009s. I can’t imagine anything better but I’m still looking for better amplification (like Blue Hawaii). I’m happy for now. My other favorites are Fostex 900 and HifiMan 1000 V2, both... | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? It was either Chris Isaak, or Gordon Lightfoot. I think I’m done running to concerts. The ticket prices, parking, not to mention the late hours, are just too much to navigate. Now, I just watch them on Blu-ray listening through Stax headphones, an... | |
| Tube tech-hobbyist In San Francisco or Northern San Mateo sought You might contact porschecab (Dan) at Edwards A/V in South SF. He’s in your area and seems knowledgeable. | |
| Sorry to hear about David Wilson- One of the reasons I visit this forum is to find out who recently passed away. Whether it’s a musician (or audio pioneer), no one gets out of here alive. It’s all very sad, but also inevitable! | |
| Fraud Alert: Audio Zoom Zoom, Netherlands Sending money to Nigeria (or the Netherlands, for that matter) just makes NO sense! I empathize with your situation ($15K, yikes), but sending that kind of money is crazy. I hope you get some of it back. Audio Zoom Zoom, really? Caveat emptor!P.S.... | |
| Nakamichi Cassette Decks nrchy is correct. I have owned many Nak decks: CR-7A, Dragon, RX-505, ZX-9. I sold all but the RX-505, and still regret selling any of them. They are getting hard to find in good condition, and the prices reflect that. Willy Hermann went through e... | |

Spend as much as you can afford, you won’t be disappointed. If you buy a Nakamichi, you won’t need to be con... | |
