| best? Sony 5400 or Cambridge 840c or 851C Thanks Cambridge Audio has a nice sonic signature but it has some reliability issues with circuits, transports and other areas that are documented so I would steer clear. Oppo is the best that I saw/heard at CES this year at that price point. | |
| VPI is Introducing a high-end Direct Drive Table VPI certainly doesn't rest on thier laurels. Is there any way you could get pics and specs to us?I saw another DD battlewagon at CES this year that was built by Micro Sekei engineers. This thing was massive and was mated to a $35k Graham tonearm w... | |
| best vocal harmonies in rock I meant this thread was a Zombie, you know, back from the dead.I think I posted to this 5 years ago! | |
| best vocal harmonies in rock Wow! This zombie lives. Some great music here. I watched the Eagles docu that has been around the past few weeks and boy it was a good one. Speaking of Zombies, it was nice to see Joe Walsh back from the dead and with a beautiful young daughter. G... | |
| Just for something different..... Elizabeth, you mean the rumour I heard that you are the heiress to the Schlitz brewing fortune is untrue?Is there still a Schlitz Brewing fortune? In my college days in Boston Schlitz was THE BEER! Fortunately tastes change.I thought Elizabeth was... | |
| B&W 802d Misleading Information and Scammers Why in the world would you try to power a $12k pair of speakers that are known to be power amp sensitive (read hungry) with a 10 year old, $475- transister radio? You might think it sounds great but there is so much more you could get from those s... | |
| new cartridge for Music Hall MMF 5 I was going to suggest the 2M Blue also. I'm not sure how it lines up in the cartridge calculator, but I have heard the Bronze on that table/arm and it was pretty nice. I am having a blast with the 2m Blk but I also have the Blue and it is 90% of ... | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? Dear Nandric-'smoking causes cancer'You haven't smoked enough! We will all die of cancer if we live long enough. This exercise might just seem like semantics but the care we take in our thoughts and opinions is directly related to the quality of t... | |
| Have cables become somewhat of a snake-oil topic. Brownsfan-Thank you for the thoughtful response. I feel I know exactly what you're talking about. The cost or name of the new power cord was not important to you. When you changed cords you experienced more of the intended source or, as Raul would... | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? I always have a bottle of Stoly in the freezer. A nice dry red from Cameron Hughes. In the summer I like Carona with lime. | |
| Who needs a MM cartridge type when we have MC? exceptions confirm the rule.Exceptions confirm the existance of a general rule, I don't believe they confirm it. Each of our hearing is as unique as a fingerprint. The 3 bones differ in size, shape and then it has to be processed through the cere... | |
| Help me pick some speakers Stevecham- If you can find a used Mani-2 for under $1k I'll take every one. They also take a powerful amp to make them sing. One thing is for sure, no sub needed. Selling my Mani-2's was one of the many mistakes I have made in my audio life. They ... | |
| My system has a narraw sounstage, lacks dynamics. Unless you start with a fresh rewire of your entire house with hopital grade outlets, wire and panels, your probably just wasting your time. | |
| Bi-wiring with different cables for HF and LF? You can certainly try it without causing any harm. Let your ears tell you if it what you are looking for. |
