Sony HAPZ1 For prospective buyers and owners
I hate to keep poking in here but it pains me to see others feel the same frustration I have had when tying to digitize classical. Hence my initial involvement in this post, I wanted to know if the Sony was up to the challenge. I have found that e...

Amen! To Almarg's post."I've got some ideas about using playlists to sort out the Bach cantatas by liturgical Sunday."I have to say you are totally speaking my language. I thought I was the only one in the world that said things like that.Awesome!...

With a little bit of research I learned that FLAC has metadata imbedded in the file (ALAC as well)so it sticks to whatever you transfer it to. WAV does not so it will not transfer correctly. There is a theory floating around out there that states ...

Sony HAPZ1 For prospective buyers and owners
Great review Brownsfan! I am very excited as you appear to be a classical fan. I am too, with many old or out of print classical recordings on CD. My question to you would be one of metadata. I understand that WAV files do not carry metadata as op... 
Harbeth - Audio Research?
It is so hard to go wrong with Harbeth with any quality amp choice; I prefer SS with mine. an ARC amp would be a great choice. Eweedhome and I seem to be cut from the same cloth. I too found the M30 a little to much after a while and I much prefer... 
Stands for harbeth superHL5

Yes, those are great subs. They do require a highpass crossover I believe. so that means you need an amp and preamp or an integrated with pre-out and amp-in. This way one can free up the harbeth from anything below about 80Hz so it can concentrate... 
Subwoofer for Harbeth M30?
Hi Kensetsu, I saw your same question on another thread--it is the last comment on the "Harbeth M30" thread I responded to that as well. I basically had the same question you had about 5 months ago. I know you are asking about the M30. I have the ... 
Harbeth M30 -
Hello allI'v had a sub with my Harbeths (C7 es3) now since beginning of October. It has taken me a while to dial it in. I'v had to adjust volume, play with the crossover, lug it to different parts of the room and listen, listen and listen again. A... 
Harbeth vs. Tyler
Ooka,Quite a discusion you'v sparked here. One thing seems pretty clear, these must must be pretty special speakers to elicit such a discussion. I'v never heard Tyler speakers, but I understand that Harbeths endear themselves to there owners like ...
