| I am really disappointed with the hip-hop enthusiasts on Audiogon I give up, who is it? | |
| Sonus Faber , Gryphon or Focal Utopia !!! This is the first time I have heard the term "Gryphon Mojo." I know that the Gryphon company makes very high quality equipment but that is the extent of my knowledge about Gryphon. Yes, Sonus Faber delivers bass without the boomy overhang that som... | |
| When I have seen people listing their systems lately I believe that most people who want a CD or SACD player has one by now. Digital, however, is just getting started and so it has a higher growth trajectory. It reminds me that it's the same with CDs. They say that CD sales are falling off but how c... | |
| Sonus Faber , Gryphon or Focal Utopia !!! I chose the Sonus Faber Guarneri because I own a pair of SF Electa Amators and I have heard many Sonus Faber speakers and they all have similar characteristics. If you favor a warm and powerful, yet transparent sound you will love the SF sound sig... | |
| Outrageous used pricing on older McIntosh I believe that on the e-auction site you alluded to you can check "Completed Listings" and the actual selling prices for past sales is shown in green. | |
| Older 90's highly rated bookshelf vs. newer technology As a postscript to my post, I also own Sonus Faber Electa Amators. I have lived comfortably with them for more than twenty years and I don't see anything on the horizon that will replace them, except maybe a pair of Quads or SF Extremas. If I were... | |
| I am sick of Adele Thanks "taters" for your opinion (again). Opinions are like...well you know, and everybody has one! | |
| Sonus Faber , Gryphon or Focal Utopia !!! FWIW, I'd take option #1. I'm sure you will get other opinions and not all of them will be for option #1. | |
| Older 90's highly rated bookshelf vs. newer technology Despite what the audio press would like you to believe, speaker technology has not advanced as much as some digital media, particularly in the range of size that you indicated. While I can't predict your musical tastes (since you didn't mention it... | |
| The one piece of gear you will never sell My Stax 009 headphones! | |
| R.I.P. David Bowie I saw him this weekend on "Live from the Artist's Den." It reminded me how much I always loved his music, especially the early albums; "Hunky Dory," "Ziggy Stardust." and Aladdin Sane." We saw him in 1972 in Santa Monica. I can't believe he is gon... | |
| I am sick of Adele I'd prefer to listen to Adele than Barbra Streisand, the diva from yesteryear. | |
| New TT -- $1k - $1500 Take a look at the new Technics 1200GAE table due out this summer. You can find a posting by mitch4t today on this forum with a link to more information. | |
| Outrageous used pricing on older McIntosh "Price is what you pay. Value is what you get." (Quote)Warren Buffet (probably not an audiophile). | |
| Oppo 105D as media center "I have no idea what an unmodified Oppo sounds like. I've never heard one, but the reviews aren't very flattering."Every review I have read goes overboard about how good the Oppo units sound. I see modded Oppo units for sale on Audiogon and C****... |
