Beating a dead horse.... SACD I have not had the chance to compare the 5400 to anything. I have had a couple of OPPO and thought they were good with an exception....I believe the British reviewers call it PRAT, and the OPPOs I have used were a bit lacking in that. One of the... | |
Yamaha Tuners In the "heyday" of early Yamaha I owned much and worked at a Yamaha dealer. The T-2 is superior if you have a non-compressed station in your area that plays music you like. Sad to say most FM stations broadcast a signal that is not very "audioph... | |
Beating a dead horse.... SACD I have enjoyed the camaraderie and shared experience of other audiophiles on this site and will continue to do so. In taking classes at all levels of learning and teaching classes at many levels I have experienced wonderful camaraderie from the... | |
a question for those "in the know" re: the future for quality FM erik, how is the quality of online stations...and I do not consider my computer to be hifi...is there a high quality way to do online through a system? Do Magnum Dynalab or other high end tuner companies embrace online music? Thanks for the help | |
A real "wake up call" available to most....High End Audio vs. Mainstream...... The Road Less Traveled is a book by M. Scott Peck. The poem is The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost. Simply that high end audio is the road that audiophiles take and it is not taken by the mass of people that get their sound making machines at Wal... | |
This is subjective, but what has been the best sounding SACD you have had? tweak1, I have used the Wireworld Eclipse 3 and Gold Eclipse 3 and 5 in the past. Thanks for the "heads-up" on the 8. J | |

Concert halls from around the world. What have been your favorites. Or even Sweet Basil's, The Rainbow Room, The Blue Note, and that list could go on. Some great places in other countries. It is interesting that some of the buildings I have been in in Europe are older than our country. A man I did business with... | |
Guilty pleasures? A new version of an old question...Dark Side... Many of us have Ed Sullivan to thank for some of the strangest mix of "acts, entertainment, singing, dancing, comedy" ever broadcast. Xavier Cugat was a person Ed brought to us along with Topo Gigio...what an experience every Sunday night was! htt... | |
Guilty pleasures? A new version of an old question...Dark Side... edcyn.....not sure if some of those are guilty pleasures or simply proof of guilt? | |
A singer you might enjoy, Valerie Carter Winwood had a song "Valerie" and Jackson Browne had "That Girl Could Sing" both are said to be about her....but I cannot verify that. In her heyday besides singing she was seriously pretty. https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=ALeKk00B8K56Xh64w_d... | |

What's your favorite boutique speaker maker Magnepan and at one time Dahlquist and Thiel. | |
Concert halls from around the world. What have been your favorites. I agree, where you are seated can have an impact on the sonic experience. As in a stereo system, most halls/PACs have their "sweet spots".Perhaps part of the "recorded music" experience it the ability to listen to it again. I have memories of gr... |
