| Yamaha Tweeter Replacement. Any help? Peter,Just FYI, I bought the tweeter and it arrives tomorrow. I love this forum. Thanks, again. | |
| Need to Downsize: Small Speaker Recommendation Opinions on speakers are always subjective so since you asked, I'll give you mine. Seriously consider stand-mounted Sonus Faber speakers. They offer amazing sound quality, much bigger sound than you would expect from their small size. If dynamics ... | |
| Glenn Cornick of Jethro Tull passes away That's very sad news! Jethro Tull is one of my all-time favorite bands, from "This Was" through "Too Old to Rock 'n Roll-Too Young To Die!" I lost interest after "Minstrel in the Gallery" and their metal years. I did catch Tull on their tour to pr... | |

| Can headphones ever be as good as high end stereo? Bfin3, your problem with your spouse is not unique. For that reason I have been listening to Stax phones for more than twenty years, starting with Lambda Pros driven by an SRM1/Mk2, and now the Lambda Signatures/SRMT1S tube driver. At a recent aud... | |
| California Audio Show 2014 I liked the large room with all of the headphone demos. Maybe that's because I'm in the market for new phones. I liked all of the Audeze models, the Fostex 900s, and the Stax 007 and 009 models. The driver units were impressive, particularly the b... | |

| Is it worth refurbishing my tube Marantz? When your Marantz pieces come back from L&M, put them up on an auction on Audiogon or Ebay. I'm sure you'll be very pleased at the response. Don't worry, you'll recover your $500! | |

| Anyone into cassettes? I have three Nakamichi decks and thousands of cassettes, along with several CD/DVD players and a high-end turntable. I find the sound from the recently serviced cassette players to be very easy to listen to and preferable to CDs when I listen thro... | |
| Repair worth it? Just to clarify my comment, most old cassette decks are NOT worth the cost of repairing them. Nakamichi is an exception. The higher end Nak decks ($1,200+ in the 80's) are well made and worth repairing. So...if you have a Dragon, CR-7A, ZX-9 or RX... | |
| Repair worth it? "The only Nak worth fixing is their Dragon model..." Please don't make these statements as someone might believe them. I have owned many of the top Nak models, including the Dragon, CR7A, ZX-9 and RX-505, and while the Dragon is a fine machine, al... | |
