| s-s integrateds just on the warm side of neutral Akg_ca: I take all of your points and do know exactly what you're talking about. If I lived nearer to more than one store, and if I had a network of audio buddies, it would all be easier.There are early DDD recordings made by Deutsche Grammophon t... | |
| s-s integrateds just on the warm side of neutral Thanks Cellorover!Would class A Luxman and Sugden also fit in here? They seem like likely candidates. | |
| AudiogoN Inception Date? This facebook page provides much of the answer.https://www.facebook.com/audiogon/infoThe owner of Accutronics was Arnie {surname?]. He sold me the Cary and the ProAc that I still have. | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Muse 175 monoblocks. A short while after getting them, I noticed a problem--a kind of distortion triggered by a few passages on certain CDs. The problem followed the monoblock when I moved it from one speaker to the other. Sent it back to Muse, an... | |
| PSB Synchrony line discontinued?? No, the PSBs were/are on my shortlist for auditioning, but I haven't heard them yet. From a lot of past experience, I'm definitely a soft dome kind of guy. I was hoping the PSBs might be on the sweeter side of some others. Also the Revel F208s.So ... | |
| PSB Synchrony line discontinued?? "The Imagine T2 Tower is newly released for the same price as the Synchrony Two and seems to have replaced it. It's a similar design, but includes a dedicated midrange driver which the Synchrony lacked.The Synchrony One also has the midrange drive... | |
| PSB Synchrony line discontinued?? I was afraid somebody would say that.I got the Proacs (from Arnie of Accutronics of Ann Arbor before he founded Audiogon) because they sounded great and mated very well with the Cary. (I understand Deja Vu of Maclean still demos their 300Bs with n... | |
| Meridian, Ayre, Musical Fidelity, Ayon, Lector $2k Everything I've heard and read tells me that the Ayre, Esoteric, ARC, and Marantz are all truly excellent units.But is there a reason the Bryston BCD-1 isn't on anyone's lists? In my experience, it's one of the most accurate and neutral players ar... | |

| Daedalus Tvad--say it isn't so! Your beloved Sonata IIIs up on the chopping, er auction, er selling block. Who's going to debate with Newbie now the relative merits of the Sonata and the Bolero??Come to that, what's up with this Bolero Supreme? Tacos, anyone? | |
| Focal and Dr Who? Also worrying is that empty pair of clogs beside the speaker, as if someone had just been vaporized and that was all that was left... | |
| Moderate floorstanders for medium room Spendor S8e, used. There's a pair on the 'gon right now. Will work well with the power you have on tap. Floor standers, two-way, good imaging, better bass than monitors... What's not to like? | |

| Fedex minimum insurance for special handling Just curious. Has anyone taken an item to one of those UPS stores and had the UPS people do the packing with the "guarantee" that they offer (according to the TV ads)? And then, after that, still had problems with damage and denial of claims? Are ... |
