| Plasma issues, is it worth it? I bought a panasonic 42" a few yrs back and figured the trade-offs are well worth the amazing picture put out by the unit. Probably as good as I one can get since adding a Bluray disc player!Umm, my plasma makes a slight buzzing sound just like al... | |

| Tube Preamplifier Time The VTL preamp I purchased used fried the power transformer within playing music for 25hrs. This is very heart breaking to me and will make me much more cautious in purchasing used equipment in the future. Bea over at VTL says to me that it's in g... | |
| Where does your user name come from? Not very original I know but it came from an Elliot Sharp albumn which was reviewed/pictured in a recent Absolute Sound issue discussing Free Jazz guitar. I've heard this guy perform live numerous times here in nyc and his music siezes to amazeChris | |
| Tube Preamplifier Time Thanks for the replies guys! Cedar, I appreciate your words in relation to striving for what sounds like similar characteristics and am glad to know I'm understood and making some kind of sense when describing my systems sound and what I no longe... | |
| Tube Preamplifier Time Liked the sound of VTL's 5.5 preamp during an in store demo and went out and bought my first piece of used gear from the site here. The first thing that entered my mind once playing the first cd inserted was, Oh man this is going to become a habit... |
