| Please rate WATT/Puppy 7 Allow me to ditto the comments about set-up. It's a chore. I had 5.1s and just couldn't fall in love, despite expensive cabling, lots of tweaking in the (tube) and SACD electronics feeding them. Revealing, yes indeed. Too much so. Then I got the 7... | |

| I need to get rid of my JBL 4311s don't I? I found them (still have a pair but only becuase they'd be tough to get rid of) to be very very dependant on amp and position. Got mine after hearing them on a McIntosh tube system. On my Crown DC300A they were not nearly the same.To me the tweete... | |
| Wilson Watt Puppy 7 and Watch Surrounds? Try to find (for 2 ch) an ARC LS-5MK III used, then retube with some nice NOS tubes.Using Transparent Refs on my 7s. Sound good! | |
| Best used speakers around 500 for clasic rock Klipsch. On tubes if you can get there. Rock on! | |
| ESS 1D's? Or Monitors? Or none...? I had Towers (transmission line model) and the highs and lows didn't integrate well. If I had to do it over again (1974 or so) I'd try the 1Ds but I also remember they ATE power. | |

| Steely Dan EMG Tour 8th row seats. Nice to see the boys up close. Unfortunately hi-jinx of 7th row folks ruined the show somewhat (the guy was eventually thrown out, but too late in the set.) Loved the drummer. Backup singer (white girl) in middle was distracting. I ... | |
| The Worst Speaker you have ever heard. Bose 901s. An early edition. | |
| SONY SCD-1 vs the New Generation of Competition Stock SCD-1s are not at all what they turn into with mods. Then there's the issue of break-in - it can take quite a while depending on what mods you got. i agree that you should check Positive feedback for details!Bob Wood | |
| Re-recording ancient reel to reel tape? Could well be a head clog on your record head. Clean carefully. Try again. | |
| Will ARC VT-100 Mk. II drive ProAc 3.8's. The VT-100 is not at all the same as the VT-100 MKII. I've not heard the VT-100 MKIII (can't say I have read of anyone blown away by the III - generally it seems the MKII is the winner.) I had my VT-100 MKI upgraded to the II. Like a V6 to a V8!Bu... | |
