The value of top end 1080p projection Avgoround! It's good to see you posting again. Haven't heard from you in a while. You pose an interesting question. I'm not too into video, but I trust Rlwainwright's judgment. His advice is always excellent. | |
Peachtree Audio Nova as. Preamp questions In your first post, you said that you ordered the small sub but didn't give a model. I assumed it was a Dynamo 300. Even if you ordered a different model, still go to ML's web site and have a look at it anyway. You'll notice in the pictures that i... | |
linn sondek CD12 "11-24-14: ChayroHow does one "come into possession" of a CD12? Sounds wrong to me."You're just mad because it didn't come into your possession. | |
linn sondek CD12 I'm not sure what its worth, but its a pretty unique unit. As far as I know, Linn makes the transport themselves, and its the only CD transport ever made outside an Asian country. I'm guessing that's the reason they go for so much. I think new the... | |
Peachtree Audio Nova as a preamp questions There's only 1 pre out on your 220. The aux is an input. First, run a set of IC's from the 220 to your amp. Then, get a pair of speaker cables. Attach one end of the speaker cables to the binding posts on your speakers. Attach the other end of the... | |

This might just be the end of brick and mortar "11-23-14: SwampwalkerZd- I think we are talking past each other. I was referring to distribution through internet sales instead of B&M, not both modes for the same lines, and thought that you were, too. I see that you were not."Yes. I should ... | |

Advice from apartment dwellers "11-22-14: WhitecapWe just crank it. Screw the neighbors."In NYC he'll be taken into custody for trying to commit suicide. | |
This might just be the end of brick and mortar If you look at most of the big, well established brands in high end audio, they only sell through B&M stores. And they are very selective about who they let become dealers. I don't see any other way they can do business. | |
ARC VSi55 integrated or VS55 plus Preamp? "I wonder what I might expect if I were to have the same amplification mated with a full function pre for example an LS27?"That sounds like a very good idea. | |
