| Bryston 6BSST or B &K 200.5 or Aragon 8008 I have an Aragon 8008bb, dual mono power amp. I love it. This sucker is built like a tank and almost weighs as much. I have no experience with the other brands and while thy have good reps, I don't think you can make a mistake with Aragon. | |
| Preamp to pair with my Adcom? Reed, the best thing I ever did in the world of audio was ditch my Adcom power and pre amps. In the years I had them I hardly if ever sat down and did dedicated listening, it was always as music in the bakground. When I had the $$ to do something ... | |
| Cal Audio Alpha-Delta, Anyone Stack Them? Thanks gentlemen. Zar | |
| HiFi lacking social recognition? My girlfriend who has more disposable $$ than I do has dropped 500 on a purse and over 2k on a watch. I consider that insane. She feels the same about my audio purchases. It takes all kinds. We have travel in common and go away as often as possibl... | |
| CD Buying Guide??? This would be great. A bad cd is going to make even the most expensive system sound, well bad. I too have bought remastered cd's that don't sound all that great. On the other hand some others have been exceptional. | |
| Anyone Have Their Rig On The Floor? Thanks Mr Tennis and Russ. All my components would sit on the wood with V-Pads and or DH Squares under them. Going to give this some serious thought... zar | |
| PS Audio Premeir vs. New Shunyata power cond. Walnut, I have the older Ps-300 and it made a significant difference in my system. So much so that when I saw PS was offering a modification program for the 300 I sent it out figuring it's going to be even better now. I miss it, but when it gets b... | |
| RUSH on INHD... I have seen during their last two tours, fantastic shows, have both dvd's as well. Neil is one of the two best drummers I have ever seen, the other being Golden Earring's Cesar Z. | |
| What has been your most satisfying component? I would say it's a toss up for me. I bought a Aragon 8008bb from a fellow goner and it made a big improvement in my system. Also up there is my Ps Audio P-300 Power Plant. Also has made a big diff. I'm missing it right now, it's out being modified... | |
| Which Power Conditioner is best at eliminating Hum I just sent out my PS-300 to be modified. I plugged my amp and pre in the dedicated line and heard a hum. I removed the pre and plugged a Monster power strip in to the line (Ps 300 was sharing with my amp)hum was gone. Never heard one bit of hum w... | |

| Pwr. conditioner necessary w/dedicated AC lines? I had a dedicated 20 amp line put in last year. I then bought a used PS Audio P-300. I have my Aragon amp and the Power Plant plugged in the dedicated line. My transport, dac, and pre-amp are plugged in the PS Audio. I noticed a slight improvement... | |

| do burnt CD copys sound as good as originals? I have Marantz Professional Cd Recorder/Player. The cd's I have made sound pretty darn great. As for computer burning, don't do it but have had some made via that way and they sound fine. | |
| CAL Delta Problem I'm going to call Approve Audio about modifying my Units. I hear this was available a few years ago. Any Cal owners have any feedback on these mods? |
