| Need some juice --- High power amps Add the Aragon 8008BB to yor list of affordable powerhouses.I have 2 systems.System 2 has seen many well regarded and very expensive amps come and go.The Aragon has stayed in my other system for 4 years without a thought of replacing it(except may... | |
| McCormack DAC-1 Deluxe I concur that the DAC 1 Deluxe is a great sonding unit(used one for several years).Great "bang for the buck" can also be found with the Soundstream DAC(designed by Krell Digital). | |
| Musical Fidelity A324 DAC too bright? When I was using the A324 I found it to be very sensitive to transports and cables.It sounded very nice with a Rega Planet(original) and a Musical Fidelity A3 Cd used as transports.It sounded average with a Denon changer and absolutely awful with ... | |
| Best cheap cartridge for college student I have a couple of NOS Grados(older brown/tan plastic bodies).One is new, the other has a few hours.They sound great and I will donate them to a good home.I ask only that shipping is paid.I will not be able to ship until 1/4/04.Larry | |
| Von Schweikert VR2 vs Sonus Faber Grand Piano H It's a matter of taste and preference.I own the VR-2's and have heard the Grand Pianos.The Bass performance of the Vr-2 speakers are very special for the price.I believe the Grand Piano H do a better "disappearing" act.If possible I would buy the ... | |
| VR-4jr or Gallo Nucleus Reference 3 VR-4jr hands down.I've heard both at Quest For Sound and Love the 4jr's.Larry | |

| Leslie & Corky - Need I saw any more???? Wet, Bruce, and Lang(73?) in Philly at the Spectrum was one of the greatest shows I've ever seen.They played all the Mountain songs,and while I love Clapton they "creamed" Cream on the Cream tunes!!! | |
| Anybody knowledgeable re reconing drivers Millersound is excellent!!! Bill is a gentleman and great to deal with!Larry | |

| Speakers: What's MOST important to you?... All aspects are important,however;I feel that a pleasing tonality is the key ingrediant.I can't consider the "soundstage" or "air" if I cannot get past a harsh treble or lifeless midrange.Remember that this "tonality" can change drastically with d... | |
| Speaker upgrade itch Opinions 2500$used If you can station them at least 2 feet off the rear wall,Soliloquy 6.3 speakers would be a fine choice.They love tubes and I have heard them with Rogue gear.I purchased the 5.3 which are nice but not nearly as dynamic as the 6.3.If the speakers n... |
