CAL ICON MKII CD player replacement I owned a CAL Icon Power Boss. CD has come a long way since the days of the Icon. You can buy a Rega Apollo for under $500. It's got the big boned sound you are looking for. It's a fun player to listen to. | |
TT Power Cord Yes, spending serious $ on a TT power cord is a total waste of $. The AC coming into the TT to drive the motor never gets rectified into an audio signal. | |
Speaker cable made you say: I swapped out a set of Nordost Super Flatline II and replaced them with Analysis Plus Oval 9's. The Nordost, true to its reputation, is somewhat light in the low end. | |
Balanced Cables for McIntosh / Wadia I gotta tell you, Mogami Neglex Gold is cheap and first rate. I have a 6 foot pair that cost under $100. | |
Conrad Johnson Tube Amp For CJ Premier 17ls I had a Premier 17LS2 which I partnered with an MV60SE.I enjoyed this combo initially but ultimately have to endorse the idea of finding a newer amp. The 17LS2/MV60SE is a bit too golden for me. Between the 2, though, the 17LS2 was the standout. B... | |

Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase Yeah well, it is what it is. But as pointed out, there are advantages. If you look for them | |
Speaker imaging Well, I do need a haircut. Will report after the haircut | |
Once again, recuperating from surgery Dexter a Gordon? Tomorrow. I got the ame on now. | |
Analysis Plus vs. Audience I've neve found the Solos weak in the bass or bright. I guess it's true, ymmv. | |
Once again, recuperating from surgery Much better, especially with Way out West spinning | |
Speaker imaging Maybe I need to clarify. My speakers do disappear and some things are more to the right and other more to the left and other things are dead center. But I usually so not perceive a stage wider that the separation between my speakers unless I'm not... | |
Anybody used Nikko amps before? My only experience with Nikko was with a receiver my cousin owned. One channel died after about 4 yrs of use. She asked me too look at it and told me unless it was something simple throw it out. Opened it up and from what I recall one IC power amp... | |
