| Preamp Deal of the Century Cortese LCR arrived last week. Took about a month from order to delivery if I was willing to forego bling and go with powder coat. It’s in a dedicated room that not any people see, so, fine by me. First serious tube amp replacing Freya. With only ... | |
| Vandersteen 7 and room treatment So what did I do? Nothing. The Supratek Cortese LCR arrived. It made the Chapmans sound so spectacular that the Vandersteen’s are still sitting on their pallets upstairs for the second week. Maybe later this week. | |
| Vandersteen 7 and room treatment Now you guys have done it. Almost all are guilty. I see you on the Vandersteen forum, encouraging me to take a peek and I’m up til 3:30 am. I love the passion, humor, and style many of you share. The critical observations and advice have deepened ... | |

| Tax Returns: Nothing, a new DAC or... ? No tax return, retired. Zero debt. But, my circumstances have changed dramatically with a recent lawsuit settlement from being drilled by a truck while cycling a couple years ago. The money is invested with the interest return alone prompting me t... | |
| Need help choosing a new DAC Personally, I can’t wait to hear the new Mojo Audio DAC coming out soon. The last couple of iterations have been musically satisfying and engaging. Ben says the latest one is quite a bit more refined | |
| Preowned Wilson Audio Chicago Dealer Could the dealer have been steering you away from a poor fit, in his opinion, with your room and/or associated gear; or did he just trash the speakers? | |
| Chapman Audio recommitment Pharaoh. I started with his basic cables years ago and moved up the line. | |
| Chapman Audio recommitment jondStuart is first and foremost a lover of music. He takes great satisfaction in his products but they must serve the music. | |
| Chapman Audio recommitment bigkidz The most notable difference cable wa the jump from the black cat to the audioquests. They were more refined and smoother. Details had more clarity, there was an “oomph” rush/punch on dynamic swings that is more visceral. The biggest differ... |
