| To Be Thick As a .... I have "TAAB," "A Passion Play" and "Minstrel In the Gallery" re-mastered on the Japanese Mini LP editions. All three sound magnificent. | |
| how best to break in speakers? I was also told that this is the best way to do it, but I was also told to run a mono signal because both speakers then get an equal workout. Is this correct or does it not matter? | |

| what's your favorite album cover? "Mad Shadows" by Mott The HoopleIt is a mirror image of flames burning in a fireplace. The result is kind of creepy! http://www.angelair.force9.co.uk/sjpcd158.htm | |
| Has the Plinius 9200 been reviewed? I receive the Plinius newsletter which is distributed by Plinius to Plinius owners periodically. In the last issue Plinius director Gary Morrison essentially said that he did not understand why the 9200 received such a negative review. He suggests... | |
| Sistrum or Neuance or...? Well, I have tried the Sistrum products, admittedley only the Audiopoints of which I have sets of three under my CDP, amp and speakers and there is no doubt in my mind that they have made a significant improvement to my somewhat modest system. I'd... | |
| Creedence Clearwater Revival SACDs I have no idea what issue my CCR CD's are??? Can anybody enlighten me? I believe there is the original redbook releases from about 1989, then there was a 20 bit re-master released around 2001 and now we have the SACD releases. Mine come in jewelca... | |
| Head To Head: Creek/Arcam/Cary/Roksan... LONG A proper evaluation of the Arcam CD73T is not possible until such time that the player is broken in. Arcam players are notorious for long break-in periods. This process took in excess of 200 hours repeat playback in my system. Until such time the ... | |
| Review: Denon DCD-1560 CD Player I couldn't agree more. I purchased my DCD-1560 back in the early nineties and it has not missed a beat since. I have however, been thinking that maybe it is time to upgrade to something current, but finding a CDP that can better the sonics of this... | |
| Plinius warm-up I also have an 8200 MkII and there is definitely no hum from my amp! | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... O.K. I emptied the sand from my rack as Twl suggested, removed the cups from beneath the spikes and now my system sounds thin, bass light and has a metallic ring to the sound. I should have followed my instincts and left well alone! | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... Other end of the country. Rotorua is in the central North Island, I live towards the bottom of the South Island. As for NZ having earthquakes of low intensity, there was a 7.4 quake in the lower South Island a couple of weeks back. Luckily the epi... | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... I guess I should have pointed out in the beginning that I live in New Zealand. While I would very much like to try out some of the devices suggested they are not available here. I have found NZ sources for Black Diamond Racing Cones and Polycrysta... | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... Gawd! As much as I appreciate all the help I'm now completely confused?? It took me the good part of a day to fill the stand as there are four uprights and sixteen cross supports each with only two very small filling holes, one at each end, and ea... | |
| Why Does A Concrete Floor/Spiked Metal Rack... Thank you for your responses. I think TWL may be on to something with regard to removing the sand from the rack. The only changes I have made to my system in the past twelve months have been to fill the rack with sand and upgrade my amplifier from... |
