| CD no more produced? Best source for CD(s) and virtually all digital media can be found at https://www.secondspin.com/.I most definitely agree that commercial CD(s) are much better than any streaming option that I've experienced, especially given all the very effectiv... | |
| The Truth about Modern Class D Bought the Rowland 501 monos when they first came out and have had absolutely no regrets. Class D is just a technology which can be used or misused. Really unfair to relegate it to some inferior status or to make generalizations. Tubes versus soli... | |
| Speakers under $5000 maintained a reputation for quality sound over the last 15 years. Dunlavy...by a fairly wide margin. | |
| SACD I am a person who has tried a lot of tweaks over the years. Some didn't help or made things worse; and yet most have found a place as a permanent part of my system(s). I have a fair number of SACDs and they sound really good, but not necessarily b... | |
| Infinity RS1B ? Buy or runaway I had the RS1-B(s) for a number of years. They were interesting with respect to their sonic and visual impact in a room. I used both solid state and/or tube electronics. I did some tweaking which made a positive difference. Since then I have had a... | |
| Crazy to buy a 17 year old CD Player? I had an ARC CD-2 for several years and enjoyed it the entire time. I have auditioned the subsequent ARC models and have observed the improvement in performance at each level. The ARC CD-2 unit, however, is still relevant in as much as it has a ve... | |
| Losing Touch Can only speak for myself and observations of others over time. I enjoy putting mixers/playlists together and sharing with friends and family. There's some excellent music being recorded from Christian artists and I feel the heartfelt dedication c... | |
| Losing Touch Well, I've been audiophile for about 50 years now. I'm 'losing touch' with a lot of music I've listened to at various points along the way. As a Christian my interest in music follows along the lines that if Christ was there in the listening room ... | |
| how is this possible Been there, done that! One time was enough to learn a needed lesson. | |
| This is pretty funny and probably true for most of us My Dunlavy SC-Vs are coffin size already! | |
| Too Much Power? If there's a problem, it's that you will be paying for a lot more power than you will ever need. Manufacturers love to make you think that more power is better HI FI. This simply is not true. Some of the best systems are powered by no more that 10... | |
| Specific Pre-Amp advice I've had Audio Research preamps and the Jeff Roland Capri. All very good, but not as liquid as the Marantz SC-7S2. | |
| I need a recommendation for long(er) cables I have a perfect set of cables in that length if interested. | |
| Should I upgrade to XLR interconnects? In a world of thousands of cable choices who can say? My own experience (40+ years) has been that single ended cables sound better in my reference system. | |
| Anticables: Scam? Been buying and selling on AudioGon for decades and have been scammed twice. First, was a set of relatively inexpensive interconnects that were clearly inferior to what I was using and the manufacturer would not take them back. Fortunately, this h... |
