| Emotiva XPA-5 vs. Parasound A51? Having heard both amps in more than a few systems I'll tell you why it is not a 'no-brainer' (shouldn't we, at least have experienced/listened to the amps before declaring it a no-brainer?) The XPA is a good value, has plenty of power for demandin... | |
| Anthonyn Cordesman on Edward Snowden 07-05-13: Rok2idThe two greatest examples of sticking our nose where it does not belong, are both World Wars. First we provoke both Japan and Germany, then we help destroy both countries. Killing hundreds of thousands in the process. Mostly civili... | |
| Audio room floor question You do not want to put any wood in contact with concrete. Plastic vapor barrier, filled with holes, will not prevent the wood from quickly rotting. Sleepers over sill seal, then you could put the plywood on the sleepers. This would eat up precious... | |
| Odyssey Khartago vs. C. Johnson's 2250A?? Ray,Nobody should buy an amp because of specs. Usually, you would buy an amp to power speakers. Your speakers are going to require an amp of certain power, current, impedence and a host of other specifications to perform at their best.I left 2 cli... | |
| Audio room floor question I'm sure they put a vapor barrier under the concrete with the 'in floor' heating present. Any hard flat surface will reflect the sound waves rather than absorb and create distortion so the rugs should tame some of that.Plan your room before sealin... | |

| Odyssey Khartago vs. C. Johnson's 2250A?? I should have prefaced my post with fact that I do not have unlimited funds so value is important to me. If money were no object I would be perfectly happy with either assuming it integrated well with the system. I thought the Khartago was very ni... | |
| DJ Cartridges - have you tried it? I have a KAB modded Stanton Trackmaster. It is an integrated headshell cartridge w/ a NOS Stereohedron stylus. It's a big reality check as to what makes up a cartridge. This thing is superb and has the midrange of a $1500 moving coil.Psychicanimal... | |
| Need Advice on Checking Stylus I would start by looking online at the thousands of good pictures of magnified stylus and get familiar with what the different tips look like in various conditions. Your 50x should serve you well in any preliminary examination. | |
| Odyssey Khartago vs. C. Johnson's 2250A?? As an exercise in engineering the Khartago is lightyears ahead of the CJ. How that translates into your needs or how it "sounds" in your system is very subjective. | |
