| Ready to spend $1100 for upgrade and need inputs I don't know anything about the Music Hall or Blue Note tables (sorry) so I won't comment on them.Are you wanting a new table? Are you willing to buy used? As I've said, I'm underwhelmed with the VPI products other than their record cleaners, but ... | |
| The song you just cant stop playing??? "The Fire Inside" Bob SegerDon't ask why, but I could burn a CD of it playing for an hour?!? | |
| Ready to spend $1100 for upgrade and need inputs There are a lot of newer TTs out there, and there have been lots of improvements to TT since the AR. Is that the AR ES-1? I think your arm is an AudioQuest PT 5. That was a good arm at the time. The difference between the PT 5, PT6, PT 7 was the i... | |
| What song best sums up the previous year? Breadman, I was wondering what happened to my pants. | |
| Progressive Rock Yes9 the price point for good quality is always going to be subjective. For what are you willing to settle? I have about about $2300 in my system which I do not consider to be state-of-the-art. BUT it is nearly as good as ALbert Porters system!Tho... | |
| Silver vs. Cooper speakers cables Does paul speltz make something like that? | |
| Thinking of getting a Krell FBP 600 The FPB 600c has a stand by mode, but I don't remember if the earlier 600 did. I had the FPB 200 which I later replaced with an FPB 700cx so I'm trying to keep them straight in my mind. I left my Krells on unless I know I wasn't going to be back t... | |
| DOA- do we need to redefine the 'A'? How does the seller know what the buyer did with the unit once it arrived? Any real problems should show up in a couple of days. Beyond that the seller is held hostage by a buyer about which he knows nothing. Most people on AudiogoN are fairly hon... | |
| Silver vs. Cooper speakers cables I used to have hair; which cable sounds better with thinning (yeah right) hair? | |
| Tube Biasing: do I have to? I'm glad Jjwa asked because I am in the same quandry. I just bought a used tube integrated amp. The second day I had it I blew the fuse. I took the unit in to find out why it blew, and the techie said that the four 6550 tubes were not in the same ... | |
| advice on hiding cables I know a gentleman(?) who drilled a hole in his floor and ran his cables under the floor. He has a basement so the whole thing was pretty easy. Is that a possibility? | |
| What music would you like at your funeral? How about the Beatles "The Long and Winding Road" since I'm looking forward to seeing many old friends when I get to the next life...Maybe followed up by something uplifting from Bach... | |
| Review: McCormack DNA-225 Platinum Edition Upgrades Amplifier I think I had a birthday between the time I started and when I finished your review. Thanks for taking the time to write it. I have been curious about the DNA amps for a while. Your review addressed many of the important issues, or questions one m... | |
| When does the law diminishing returns kick in? People can justify anything they bought, but anyone who spent more than them is just trying to gratify their ego. Of course, that level changes everytime the person buys something new.Every well thought out purchase is a good move. The law of dimi... | |
| How do I let go...the “D” word I feel your pain. Financial obligations are forcing me to sell the majority of an expensive system. I am parting with speakers and my amplifier in the hopes of raising $15,000+ to pay some pressing bills. I don't like the idea, but the looming deb... |
