| New CDP on the way--Advise, please Well here's the deal my fellow audiophools. I called YBA-North American Distributor, and they said, regardless of where my selector knob is, with the integrated off or in the standby, mode, that the IC will be carrying a load. So there I am. Thank... | |
| Thiel or Sonus Faber??...Need help please I don't know of any monitor speaker, that has the prodigious bass your 3.5s deliver. After the 3.5s you'll never be satisfied, with monitors, unless you go with a sub. My Revel M20s with Sistrum Monitor Speaker Platforms and a Sunfire Architectura... | |
| New CDP on the way--Advise, please Even though the YBA does not have a mechanical selector switch, wouldn't keeping the selector switch turned to CD keep a load on the ICs/CDP? (the reason I mention ICs, is because I'm getting a new pair, that I also want to break them in the same ... | |

You do not have to go to crazy $$ to get there, but in the world of cabledom $500 is small potatoes. As, has been said before me... | |
| Best reasonable$ upgrade from spikes? You can couple or decouple. Never the twain shall meet. As soon as you have rubber in this deal, you're decoupling. I am a firm beliver, (and I am in the minority) in coupling. I want all the resonances to be transferred to the ground. You do not ... | |
| 2000$ - 7y old speakers - Better speakers today ? This is just the beginning of oodles of feedback. Well, here's my deal. I sold my Thiel CS1.5s (7 years old, too) over the summer. I wound up purchasing the Revel M20s and couldn't be happier. Also, about the same price. I did listen to the new Th... | |
| Help with blown amp I don't know about Plinius, but some manufacturers will nullify your warrantee if you mess with their stuff. Once you open it up you may have an additional problem. Burning plastic smell? Sounds like more than a scratch. Send that baby back. warren | |

| what speaker stands for B&W Matrix Series 2? I am not familiar with these speakers. If they are monitors, then, check out my review on the Sistrum Mini Monitor Platforms.

| Arcam A32 vs. ML 383, Macintosh MA6900, YBA, other I have the YBA Passion Integre. I've auditioned everything before I bought this baby. No experience with the Arcam so I can't help you, there. My review, on the Passion, is in the Archives. This amp is warm, tubelike, with all the advantages of ss... | |
| What speakers to Buy. Big Room -- Bookcase App. The best way to kill the sound of a bookshelf speaker, is to put it on a bookshelf. I have the M 20s. They sing on killer stands. Put them on the Sistrum Mini Monitor Platforms, and you'll be in heaven. Put them on your bookshelves? forgeddabout i... | |
