| Dunlavy SC IVa or B&W 802 No competition in my mind. Dunlavy! As a matter of fact, I have watched the prices of the Dunlavy IVa and V models since they closed the doors. The first two years showed a small reduction in resale value, but now they have risen above the prices ... | |

| Aurios MIB Pro vs. Pro-Max? My understanding is it's a replacement. I too have been curious about how they preform against the Pros, I personally have found the performance of the 1.2 is quite a step down from the pro...jd | |
| Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp Paul, I hope your still checking into this thread. I have tried now four separate times to write you back, but I am receiving a delivery delay and/or failure message. I'm so sorry I can not get back to you directly. To contact Jim White go to the ... | |
| Cable auditions - Hard Work? S23chang, great points. First I love your concept of getting rid of the "system dependant" comments. Cables are only system dependant if they are making up for weaknesses in the system. A strong system will help us determine what the cable is doin... | |
| Cable auditions - Hard Work? Yuri, I am sick of this ^%$# out of your mouth. You stand on your soap box telling us folks to listen to you because your Toys R Us system can not discern the difference in Sonics between different cables and components. Then you dare me to c... | |
| Cable auditions - Hard Work? Yun, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah! That's all I hear. | |
| Sade - The Best of...... Thank you for the review. I first heard Sade in 1985(?) and finally discovered how to spell her name on a vacation in Hawai while resting in our room after too much sun. The children's programing we were watching (with my son) had Sade as the sing... | |
| Herbie's Hal-O tube dampener's on Calypso? Mr. man of no mistakes; I think the feeling of closed in may be an illusion created through a rounder more human image to the edge of instruments and voices on the soundstage. With the dampers there is a slight lessening of the "cut out" appearanc... | |
| Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp I must take a second to thank you Tim for the extremely kind thoughts. I doubt I'll ever have the opportunity to write for any magazines or E-review sites because I have not pursued it. I enjoy this hobby more than anything I am able to due given ... | |
| Herbie's Hal-O tube dampener's on Calypso? Hi Perfecto man,I just received four of Herbie's tube dampers a couple weeks ago. This is the first of the four products I have tried that were a step forward. The others gave me little or no improvement and the Mapleshade brass dampers were horri... | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System Excellent description of some extremely complicated topics put into terms even I could understand. After reading for most of the day through papers coming from Rice University and spin off company profiles into nanotechnology I see the excitement ... | |
| Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp Hi Tim,Thank you for the kind words. I used to have two SA-102 amps in a vertical bi-amp configuration. (running both in stereo. I found the mono block configuration to be a bit too aggressive for my room and ears. I imagine your set-up as describ... | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System Hi Joe,Damn you... the problem with respecting you despite not agreeing fully is I then give consideration to your opinions. Over the last four years some truly revolutionary thinking (and in some cases actual science) has raised the bar in cable ... | |
| Review: Aesthetix Calypso Line Stage Tube preamp I have indeed been doing some trial and error (tube rolling) with the 6922. I was under the false impression that this tube set (V2 socket) would have little affect. I was grossly wrong. After reading “Joe’s tube lore” (Google Joe’s tube lore) at ... |
