| Anybody have an actively multi-amplified system? If I were putting together an ultimate system and had a deep enough checkbook I totally agree. Even some of the cheaper active speakers are very good values now. It just makes sense that the speaker builder would know the ideal amplification. I ha... | |
| Remember the year and first vynil you ever bought? I remember shoveling snow to save for 'Light My Fire", finally reaching the 98 cents I went to Kressges, Davis Square, Somerville. Made my purchase and rushed home to listen....all I here is this Spanish guy singing my favorite song poorly..I was ... | |
| VPI 3D tonearm I hope I am always behind the person or company that puts its own money behind new products and innovations and lets the market determine its success or failure. Where you see cynicism I see the American Dream. | |

| B&W matrix 801 s2 still a relavant speaker. I just sold a pair for over $1500- and the guy drove over 200 miles to get them, so at least one other person finds them relevant.One thing is certain, if you want to get the best out of them be prepared to run powerful amps into them and get them... | |
| Odyssey Khartago vs. C. Johnson's 2250A?? We all agree that words will never adequately describe the synergy between amp and speaker. You have to listen to amps with various speakers to get a taste of what they bring. Speakers can go from majestic to muddy with the switch of an amp.Nothin... | |

| Anthonyn Cordesman on Edward Snowden Dear Nonoise,Shouldn't citizenship be a source of pride? Deregulation has led to the election of Obama, can't be that bad. | |
| Anthonyn Cordesman on Edward Snowden Rok2id,I am aware of 'lend-lease'. Britain would have surrendered to the Germans if not for it. France laid down as we know, before we could bail them out. | |
| Anthonyn Cordesman on Edward Snowden Csontos,You, and the politicos can play the "what if" game. Those of us that evaluate risk for a living deal with historical facts as a paradigm for future events. Just the facts please. | |
| Budget Turntable suggestions Project Debut Carbon, $399- at Music Direct. Table, carbon fiber arm and Ortofon 2M Red cartridge. It's a very nice balanced setup that sounds better than it has any right to. | |
| Anthonyn Cordesman on Edward Snowden Dear Nick_sr,Thanks for a well thought out post.I know our EU friends were none to happy with being the target of US espionage. Politicians have been beating the terrorism drum for money and votes back to Bush Sr. Both parties are guilty. The mara... | |
| worse entertainer or performer of all time?? David Hasselhoff has to be the worse. And he looks like Bruce Kardashian. | |
| Odyssey Khartago vs. C. Johnson's 2250A?? T1s49,Lower distortion is a good thing so the THD specs for both units speak for themselves.I never said the CJ was inferior. In my experience with both amps I liked the Odyssey. I would be very happy with the CJ also but given a choice.I have a C... | |
