| Review: Audio Aero Prima cd CD Player I liked the Prima considerably more than the Carey. The others: haven't a clue. This CDP is unreal. Regardless of price. I've been putting it through some serious listening. My ears can be very unforgiving, but my expectations are being, more than... | |
| What's under YOUR CD player? To decouple or couple? That is the question. You cannot mix the two. Well, you can, but you're killing your road to happy coupling...I'm a coupler, and have been happy ever since...It's doable...total isolation isn't. Never! Happy listening. | |
| What's under YOUR CD player? I have my CDP sitting on a Sisturm Platform designed to couple my CDP. This is one beautiful piece of engineering. Imagine to 2" brass cones, one point up, one point down, threaded together through a steel triangular resonant coupler. Can't imagin... | |
| Hi end audio who cares Here's some other comments for ya. Can you relate?Wow, how loud can that baby play?How many watts?Man is that clear.Can you play that louder?How much does that cost?$1000 for speaker wires! You're insane.I have Crown and JBL. What do you think of ... | |

| Monitor with a full range sound? I own, and love the Revel M20s. While their extension is quite amazing, they require a sub (for me that is). They, also, require, like all monitors, killer stands, to sound their best. The stands that come with the M20s are horrible. (but then, ag... | |
| Integrated confusion? Levinson 383 or JRConcentra The 383 and the JRDG are, certainly great integrateds. I, however, liked the YBA Passion Integre better than both. It killed the Levinson, and the sweetness and tubelike qualities couldn't be matched by the Concentra. The $ is right and the qualit... | |
| Tweak: raising the subwoofer off the floor... Maxgain, to couple or decouple that is the question. Before you do anything, think about the idea of coupling that sub to the floor. You really cannot, fully decouple anything, but you can, surely, couple and send all those evil resonances to grou... | |
| how old is too old when buying speakers? Speakers are not like fine wine, or Stradavari. 5 years, however, is a short time in the life of speakers. However, and that's a big however, you read it above: how have they been treated in those 5 years? You have to trust the person you're buyin... | |
| Stands for Nautilus 805 Speakers If you want to hear your speakers go where you never thought they could, then read my review (in the archives) on the Sistrum Mini Monitor speaker platforms. By the way, if your speakers don't go there, they're not capable of it. I use these platf... | |
| Will cheater rob my PC's? Wipe out everything? No, but I don't think you want to go that way. I wouldn't want to go that way, at least. Try this. Get an extension cord, plug your sub into it, and then run the extension cord to an entirely different circuit. You'll need a l... | |
| Mark Levinson 27 Clipping Yes, it's likely to be, or do, damage. Yours and any other amp. "Regualr" clipping is not a good thing, as Sean said. You, more likely, will do damage to your speakers, first. More power, more efficient speakers, or lower volumes. That'll solve yo... | |
| Subwoofer thoughts from a newbie... Speaking of 10" woofers, I have the Sunfire Architectural Sub. Fast, tight and blends beautifully with my M20s. I crossed over at 45Hz and let my M20s run full range. It's a match that works great. You don't hear people talk much about this sub. I... | |
| Some questions on break in periods.... If I had two new pieces, purchased at the same time, I would break them in together. How else better to have referent. When I'm upgrading, I purchase one piece at a time over a long enough time, so that I become familiar and very intimate with my ... | |
| Subwoofer thoughts from a newbie... This is definitely a personal thing. It's, again, very room dependant. I have mine placed in between my monitors, and I believe, from what I have read, you usually cannot go wrong with this placement. Then again, I'm a two channel guy. HT, probabl... |
