| The most beautiful Integrated Tube amp? The Jadis Orchestra Reference is one of the most beautiful amplifiers you can buy. 24 karat gold over brass fascia and knobs, stainless steel, real wood, transformer covers in black and 24K gold, exposed tubes and capacitors. Definitely helped in ... | |
| Smear campaign? Very good points and perspective Jmcgrogan2. As far as the mad poster, he hasn't been seen or heard from since his exposure. From the response in this thread, as well as those he was involved in, lots of people saw right through the whole thing. | |
| Krell enters the world of SACD ? Didn't Sony also say that MD would not become another Beta situation? Oh, and didn't they also say that about DAT | |
| How does one get off the merry-go-round? G13!, great to see you again Joe! My take on this is that this hobby should have some sort of direction. It should have a destination. Once that destination is reached, there is not that much more future buying needed. Maybe a big step up as a res... | |
| Has anyone listened to Legacy speakers? It seems logical that the quality of the construction improved when Bill sold some of the interest in the company to outside interests. Hopefully, there was some capital influx that paid dividends in R&D, machinery(CAM) and QA/build. I don't k... | |
| Stereophile Theduke call them again, and explain the circumstances(make sure they understand). You should be able to get three extra months from them. Push a little if they don't offer it. From what I remember, March was a lousy issue anyway. Is it me, or doe... | |
| Stereophile During my periods of subscribing, Stereophile has not been the type of publication to set your calendar by. Doesn't seem that it will happen in the future either. Sometimes it comes early, sometimes late. Sometimes really late. Once or twice, it d... | |
| A little bit of Truth Excellent points Sdcampbell. As usual. | |
| Airtight ATM300 vs. Cary 300SEI Nice to see some AirTight talk on this site. To me, this is one of the best marques that no one ever talks about on this site. We hear a lot about Audio Research, Cary, Conrad Johnson, Rogue, VTL, etc., but as has been mentioned previously, the Ai... | |
| homegrown audio vs. kimber Bwyoung, I am glad that someone with your type of system has weighed in on the Silver Lace. Krell is not what people usually talk about combining with this cable. However, the fact that you report good sound with this match says a lot about Silver... | |
| Why are EMC-1 s being dumped on market? For what it's worth, I have listened to the Electrocompaniet a fair amount. I find it to be a wonderful CD player. A very smooth sound, nice soundstaging, commendable heft and weight. We all have different tastes and leanings, and should report th... | |
| You get what you pay for... Thanks for all the responses. My previous player was a Pioneer PD-5100, made in Japan. Quality is obviously several levels higher, as I never had a problem and build quality never came into question. It simply works. Just like a sewing machine. Wi... | |
| Best Log in name?? Oh, made a big mistake. How could I forget Swamplwalker? | |
| Radio Purchase question I may take a lot of flack for this recommendation, but here it goes. Making the big assumption that you have the room for it, I would look around for a mini system. One from Sony, etc. There is a lot of dreck out there, so you must be judicious. I... | |
| Has anyone compared these preamps? Rogue is at least a step above the Audio Electronics preamp. Superior in most every area. Resolution, transparency, neutrality, impact, dynamics, and extension. I am a really big fan of Audio Electronics, however. The tonal shading is much more cl... |
