| A very good ENGINEERING explanation of why analog can not be as good as digital.. Of course, sound quality notwithstanding, the sheer joy in finding old collections of records, cleaning the promising ones with my ultrasonic RCM, and cueing them up is often just so amazing. As kind of a known audio-guy and owner of a busy bakery... | |
| Skeptic or just plain hard headed Hello All, Just a semi-related anecdote, I’ve got a large commercial building with a crazy-fun-exasperating sound system (posted in virtual systems, Village Baker Madness). One time I had the great idea to hook up a pair of Jamo E770’s to my N... | |

| Like the new look to audiogon ? emails from today:Dear Audiogon Staff,I would be much more inclined to learn the ins and outs of your new update if it were not for the blurred "key-hole" style pictures. I would suggest changing that one aspect of the update and maybe members wou... | |
| Like the new look to audiogon ? I own a bakery/cafe and am very sensitive to bad reviews, and am usually forgiving of bad experiences because I sure know the challenges of running a business....But, what happened, Audiogon? I hope my ONE STAR review is just temporary! Please wit... | |

| We give up perspective to avoid tone controls Hey Vintage Heath, good for you. I like your keep-it-fun attitude! | |
| We give up perspective to avoid tone controls Hello All, There are times when I tweak the heck out of even well recorded music.... Sometimes I listen to music at very low volumes and I max out the tone controls and the ‘compensate’ circuit of my Accuphase E-470. I’m surprised that listenin... | |
| Some Direction Please...... Hello, I'm sure those Harbeths are divine. And,of course, anything by Rogue is sure to be a quality piece. You are off to a very promising start. A few years ago I purchased one of the ultrasonic record cleaning machines and it was like get... |
