| Plinius or YBA? 8200 II matches up well with Totem Forests. I wouldn't condider this combo warm sounding at all. AQ Sterlings were noticeably better than the AZ Hologram. So match either amp up well and you'll have a winner. ICs are AQ Diamond(silver) - this comb... | |
| VPI vs Nitty Gritty I had both. I like the VPI better because the vac was over the record and you can see the results while it's cleaning- Which one Did a better job? er...I dunno.... | |
| Send music from computer to Receiver? Why don't you just buy the CD or LP at a record store- Support the artists. Think of it as a contribution to their creative endeavours and the future of music... | |
| Plinius 8200 MkII -- best integrated ss amp? Upgrading in your case might involve looking into separates. But I wouldn't rely on magazine reviews or other's reccomendations. No one has your ears! Good luck- it's challenging... | |

| I finally got a Mcintosh amp SSSSSHHHH- Keep that under your hat. You'll cause a recession. MACs are collectable and (yes, overrated). Lots of folks LOVE MACs, but most of them just collect them- never listen to them. Rotels sound great! that's no surprise. Sorry you are unha... | |

| bad experiences buying on line Watch out for very cleaver buyers who claim problems with purchases - They buy a similar item they already own and replace parts from theirs with the parts from yours AND claim YOU have committed fraud! Happened to me a few times. Mostly with vint... | |
| Shipping prices and buyers... Seller's beware- It's difficult finding parts/repairs for many items. Buyers purchase an item and use the parts for repair. There's a rash of false claims from buyers who swap parts out for their items and then claim the seller sent a faulty unit.... | |
| Any feedback on the NY Audio Show NYH? If great (expensive)gear can sound bad can cheap(er) gear sound great? I think yes...! This is was I got out of this year's show. But as past shows, expensive stuff was dissapointing and inexpensive stuff was impressive. Just blame it on the rooms... | |
| Turntable help Please The Phillips tables have more issues with the electronic switches etc than just sounding good. If it spins fine, use it! Get a phono stage, nothing too fancy(radio shack's aren't bad) and run it into the ground. Have to be careful of matching tone... | |
| Best Inexpensive Tuner? Try a Scott, Fisher, Marantz Pioneer solid state tuner, like a LT112b or a Scott RCV (using the tuner section). Built like tanks & smooth sound- better than you would imagine. find one for under $50. I found the Dyna FM-3, TU717 to be overrated. | |
