| Where should I concentrate my upgrade dollars next And we all know who's response is el numero uno...YES?(...let me know when someone figures it out...) | |
| Where should I concentrate my upgrade dollars next I would swap the Jolida. Not that it's not a worthy piece. The Slim is not going to change. Rotel you hardly use. The DAC is another candidate for change. The speakers would be another option...but you said you were satisfied with the power you ha... | |
| Present analogue play back designs....Advanced? B&O, Thorens, Yamaha, Denon...of the old days vs my 20K rig. I can live with any one of those. Actually, I do. I still own them. | |
| "Matisse" preamp - 12AX7 12AT7 why not go to the 12au7's? | |
| How reliable are EAR amps Tpreaves, are you calling Elizabeth ugly???? (I'm tying to start trouble...) | |
| Novice question about Internet Downloading. I'm not familiar with music servers per say. So I cant speak about what they can do independently of a dedicated PC. I know that a PC can do pretty much anything. More so than a dumbed down PC obviously. Which is a basically a music/data server. P... | |
| Novice question about Internet Downloading. Its not. I have been in the IT industry for 12 years. Not presently. Also, before and during these years..and even now, I have involved myself with everything imaginable when it comes to PC's, internet, networking, wireless, and hardware/software.... | |

| How reliable are EAR amps That's unfortunate to treat your customers like that in this day and age. Designers AND dealers should project nothing short of extreme gratitude and overt willingness to bring a problem to a quick resolution. | |
| Importance of Good Speaker Stands? Use sand, and bake. I live by the beach, and when I constructed a DIY platform for my TT, I used fine sand from the beach for the interior. Put it in a large bowl, and mix occasionaly to facilitate drying. Easy as pie. | |
| Focal vs Dali speakers Large room? Neither of those will put out much of what you are looking for. Loomis makes a good point about adding a sub in your situation. I would go for the FOCALS if adding a sub. If you dont want to add a sub, look at something different all-t... | |
| Importance of Good Speaker Stands? I would try the fill like Jax2 suggested. With those particular speakers, I would look at your situation from a strict resonance control perspective. So true about the mom&pop example. The cat-piss issue can be rectified by LRTIGB (little roun... | |
| Novice question about Internet Downloading. So is there a chance you will purchase a PC in the near future? I'm not sure I understand that part? | |
| How reliable are EAR amps Are you kidding? They are works of acoustical art. Tim de Paravicini is one of the top designers in tubed electronics. He's up there with Allen Wright of Vacuum State. | |
| If you had 1500 to 2000$ to spend LOL..Harry Potter. Damn you had me going there. |
