| Upgrading my system? Levinson to. . . . ? Get a pair of NuForce 9.02s - you can get them on a 30 day return priviledge. Then see what you think. What have you got to lose?Best of luck!Bob Wood | |
| I hope break in is true Break In can be real depending on what you are breaking in. I think those who claim otherwise simply haven't had the experience of change - and that doesn't impugn them - they have had gear that didn't change.After several mods involving black gat... | |
| HT / Audio system Recommendations under 15K. I like the LINNs but... you might wish to wait till DVD players are out with 1080P if your display can take it.There are darn near an infinite number of permutations you could put together, but for a simple answer, the LINNs will do the deal.Bob W... | |

| HIGH DEF DVD...WHATS THE LATEST NEWS? Sony pushes PS3 launch back to November. That will keep many Blu-Ray players off the market till then. PERHAPS they are waiting to intro new displays that take 1080p input? (Who knows?) Bob Woodhttp://www.GreatHomeTheater.com/hd-dvd.html | |
| Nuforce As to what made the different in my system, I can't say for sure. I did audition the H20 sigs TWICE, due to the generousity of Henry Ho. They sounded good. But the NuForce was more dynamic yet clean and unrestricted. When I put my tube amp back in... | |
| Nuforce Ahem. I did audition the H2O Sig and the NuForce 8b and 9.02. I think Henry Ho makes a fine product and is a real gentleman - I know two people who loved that amp and bought it right away.To me, in my system, the NuForces had 'it.' And I bought th... | |

| Any Home Theater Experts here? Are you saying you put your receiver into bypass mode for music? (you wrote it as if you put the SF into bypass, which I doubt.) Why not simply try this experiment...Try directly wiring your high end stuff into your speakers for music - see if the... | |
| Mods and accessories The modder can experiment and find a better set of newer components which would be too expensive for a mass produced product. Whether or not it's worth it is all in the ear of the beholder.I should mention I am on my 5th mod. 4 to my SCD-1 and one... | |

| Static electricty - Can it damage audio gear I blew out an old CROWN preamp - the DL-2 - by a static zap.Try to ground yourself just to be sure, before you grab the control of anything.Or use a humidifier.Bob Woodhttp://www.GreatHomeTheater.com/stereo.html | |
| NuForce Reference 8 vs. 9 Driving my 9.02s with tubed ARC LS5MKIII with GNSC Ref mod. Note 8s are now 8.5s. My audition of 8s was impressive and easily drove my 93db/w/m speakers. Hard to say what you'd hear due to preferred listening levels, etc.Also, nobody mentions that... |
