Best CD source?
I have multiple screens running to compare prices and have found over the course of five years that for new recordings CD Connection is best hands down. Order more than $100 and buyer receives free shipping. I find that their practice of free ship... 
What Are Your Audio Morals?
... apparently I rudely interrupted myself. So I purchased a lot of equipment for myself and others.In the past two years, he has shown me B&W Nautilus, McIntosh, Parasound and Conrad Johnson equipment. In some of these instances when I purcha... 
What Are Your Audio Morals?
I don't know if this is helpful or not, but the use of the wprds honesty and integrity is writ large from both perspectives.I was a retailer in the late '70s and formed a single long term association with someone thereafter. I purchased easily $25... 
My Poop theory by kublakhan
I agree. You are full of poop. Goodbye! 
B W Nautilus 805
I've owned two pairs of 805s for the past year. Paired with an ASW2000, these are remarkable speakers. Since I made this purchase there has not been a single day that I do not look forward to coming home and listening to music.

Mobile Fidelity Recording
I've had the great pleasure of reviewing MFSL recordings in both the LP and CD format. With the advent of GainII technology, some resmastered discs were simply breathtaking. The level of execution in transfers was consistently of the highest order... 
TESTING SPEAKERS
If you want to listen to or audition great or otherwise speakers do not add any external tone or EQ modification. Since you have a photog background listen in black and white before you buy. Adding color to a carefully constructed image may be int... 
Best DVD player in $500-$1000 Range
Without progressive scan needs and a limited price range, try to find a Sony DVD SP 300. It is an extraordinary machine at a very ordinary price. Out of production for nearly 2 years, it is a dual laser machine which plays DVDs, CDs, and CDRs. I o...
