| Luxman T-117 Tuner I happen to like the T-117 a lot! Please be aware that to the best of my knowledge Luxman no longer serves the US market. Parts and repairs may be diffucult to come by. | |
| Why get an expensive tuner?Am I missing something? While rare, there are some good quality broadcasts available. A good tuner can avail you to a multitude of quality music you might other wise never know about. While I would love to own a really top notch tuner for the above reason, there are some... | |
| wattage difference between SS and Tube Smaller Thiels can usually get by with 50 watts but benefit from more. Thiels do present a rather linear but low impedance. This would be the major concern IMO. Power requirements can be crudely determined by speaker sensitivity, room size (and co... | |
| Argent Room Lenses? Thanks,Jahaira. | |
| Argent Room Lenses? I am curious about these "things". How do they work? Where do you place them? Are they limited to a certain frequency?Do they subtract sound? Do they add sound? Do they neutralize sound? Is there a way to measure a room for appropriateness? How do... | |
| Are active speakers the best upgrade I did it again, PUTTING THE COSSOVERS BEFORE THE AMPS SEEMS LIKE A SUPERIOR METHOD! Sorry! | |
| What venues are best for selling used equipment? Mwilson I fear you might be right on re: AGS. Recently I posted a sale for an item that was conservatively rated a 7. No responses. Mean while a friend purchased an item rated a 10. I'll be damned but the 10 was ever so marginally in better condit... | |
| Are active speakers the best upgrade I am no expert, but I can't help thinking that keeping the electronics away from the vibrations, magnetic fields and limted heat dissipation that come with most speakers might be a better idea. I do agree that putting the amps before the crossover... | |
| Which comm. speaker mfgr. makes the best cabinet? Well done, Zaikesman. I can't help but wonder if future omni-directional designs will be less dependent on cabinets. | |
| Are active speakers the best upgrade TacT might lead us into the future. | |
| Best Inexpensive Tuner? Denon TU-800 would be a good used recommendation especially if you live in an urban environment or where favorite stations are close to adjacent strong signals. | |
| Male Jazz singers - any recommendations? Chazzbo, I'll give most anybody one more try at entertaining me. Are any of the above recommendations available on CD? | |
| Male Jazz singers - any recommendations? Bbtuna, I think that Tom Waits "Nighthawks at the diner" certainly qualifies as a Jazz recording. Now some of you will think me inconsistent recommending this Tom Waits (HIGHLY!) recording after I just blasted Chet Baker's voice.Waits is hardly a ... | |
| Male Jazz singers - any recommendations? To each his own, and I wouldn't deny you your joy. But I just can't stand Chet Baker's voice. He was flat, off key and had no range or dynamics. Just an over rated pretty boy junkie "pop" Jazz marketing tool. He left behind a rather infamous reput... | |
| Best Inexpensive Tuner? You might find a used Luxman T-117 for under $300. Fair warning, last I heard Luxman no longer supports the US market. |
