| Rega Owners...which after-market counter weight? If anyone has compared Heavyweight with Michell Technoweight, kindly let us know, thanks! | |
| Sub recommendations for HT I thought the Sunfire junior sub will fit your price range, and possible a used Sunfire also -- I might be wrong. ACI Titan used to offer a kit package that costs about $700-800. Both Sunfire and Titan II are good with bass for music and movie. I ... | |
| Meridian 507, Rega Jupiter, Music Fidelity..ect ?? I have auditioned Sony SCD777ES and Sony SCD1, I think SACDs are much better than CDs and like SCD1 a lot (but a bit pricey for your budget). For used 777ES, you might be able to get it for $1500 and SCD1 probably $2200+. There are a few on Audiog... | |

| What's in your record cleaning machine???? I follow Chris Brady's method: (taken from http://www.teresaudio.com/haven/cleaner/cleaner.html)For the record cleaning fluid I use Laura Dearbon's formula from her book "Good Sound". There are a number of other formulas that could also be used. T... | |
| Tube pre-amp used for around $1000? I like BC and AI, but if your second system requires phono stage, try Magus C also, which sells used for $600 -- best for the money, I think. | |
| Audiogon, Teres, OL Silver, Shelter, MU et al. Thanks, Joe, I got one of the special deals today. The Audiopoints should improve my Teres. | |
| Budget Subwoofer Is the sub for movie? If it is, then a visit to Abt Electronic will give you some ideas re. the $200 range subs. If it is for music, then experience tells me that first I need to match my sub with my main speakers perfect, otherwise, you will be u... | |
| Audiogon, Teres, OL Silver, Shelter, MU et al. Hi Tom, and Audiogoners,I went to the Starsound website and could not find the Audiopoint cones you mentioned above. Did I miss something? If you have more info on the website, kindly let us know.My frustration with Teres forum is that I am unable... | |
| What is your most beautiful component? I have to say, besides the Teres TT, it is the "nothing" that I have -- the MU step up (by Bent Audio), MU means "nothing," two black cans with the Chinese word "nothingness" appears on each can. | |
| Best monoblock tubes amp with Vandersteen 5As Rogue Zeus is the ultimate, but Rogue 120 monoblocks will drive 5As well and easily. They have powerful tubes. | |
| Any recommendation for a modern FM tuner Over the last three years, I have auditioned (and owned some of) the Fanfare, Audiolab, Dynalab tuners -- they are all very good, but end up now with Mcintosh MR71 and just love it. MR71 is magical, may be because of the tubes. Mine has the Mod.Go... | |
| Tube preamp w/tone controls around $500? Since fidelity is the key, to manipulate the tone might not be what you want to do with your high-end pre-amp and power-amp. I do have some bad recordings myself, and often end up with getting addition recordings that are either in better shape or... | |
| Tube Tuner: Eico HF92A and Mcintosh MR 65 I think MR 65 has stereo with the MPX thing, but I do not know if it is truly stereo or "bi-mono". Anyone knows? I like "warm and euphonic" sound, so I will look for 65 or 67. | |
| Tube Tuner: Eico HF92A and Mcintosh MR 65 Nanderson, am I right in assuming that MR65 is not on your recommended list at all, and that even with recap and retube, MR65 is not like 67 and 71? |
