| B & W 801 Series II Vs Yamaha NS 2000 The 801's are very power hungry. You will not get what this speaker has to offer unless it is mated to a high current ss amp. I was running a pair with a Bryston 4B (250w) and the sound was ok, but when I added another 4B and ran them as monoblock... | |
| Entry-level speaker cables I have tried the Canare, Signal Cable, Audioquest and a couple of other entry level speaker cables. All of them have thier own qualities and limitations. You are probably going to get further up the food chain by purchasing used. If you want new m... | |

| VPI is Introducing a high-end Direct Drive Table Maril 555,You most certainly are correct, my apologies. The exotic arm I saw was a Vertere which was in the more traditional tonearm location. This was like something I have never heard/seen. Really state of the art/science. I don't know where to ... | |
| can record skips be fixed? There are places that you can have a skip/defect repaired. It's not going to cost you $25 though. The last time I looked into this a couple of years ago it was $200 to eliminate the groove breakdown. They can not replicate the modulation, just a m... | |

| new cartridge for Music Hall MMF 5 You could get the 2m red to see if you like the overall presentation in your system. You can upgrade to 2m blue replacement stylus with it's more advanced stylus/cantilever, as the bodies are the same. | |
| Why not horns? There is a unique horn speaker being built iup in Maine that sounds unlike any other horn (or speaker) that I have heard. I have never desired any type of horn, the sound wasn't anything I could live with, and the esthetics were too big and ugly. ... | |
| VPI is Introducing a high-end Direct Drive Table I was told by Jack Rubinson, a VPI salesman, that the new DD will be in the $30k range. Almost reasonable compared to the Micro Sekei engineered Air Force One that touches $100k. Does the $1400 traveler blow away your Technics SL 1200 MkII ????Fun... | |

| Using Oppo 105 for Audio from Cable Box? I get the best sound by using the direct digital out from the cable box - digital rca patch - Krell Dac - CJ Preamp. It sounds as good as any other digital source in my system. You want to get your digital signal to your best dac, which in your ca... | |
| Bi-wiring with different cables for HF and LF? StringreenCoherence is compromisedAfter more thought, Vandersteens comments, checking the Legacy site, I have to agree with Stringreen. Your speakers are voiced with well thought out crossovers to achieve max coherence. By mixing cable you could p... | |
| Which is REALLY the best Conrad Johnson Preamp I love my vintage PV-10a but, the last several months it has developed a problem where at times the left channel wiil start to distort and fade to almost 0 volume.
