| Heads-Up: ARC introducing new G Series I think it's Fine Sounds and the Italian designers trying to make their mark on things, at least aesthetically. They have also done this to Wadia. With companies such as Wadia and ARC and their heritage, I would think you would want to take more o... | |

| REL Subs with ARC Ref series amps Since they are all part of the Fine Sounds Group, I figured these issues would be shared by all. I actually contacted REL first via their website and I'm guessing REL forwarded it to Sumiko since I was a US customer. Your thread on impedance and s... | |
| What to use in polishing high quality wood speaker Absolutely what Raks said. | |
| Channel Balance on Dynavector XV1-S This is exactly what happened to me. Tonearm directly into Foz. May hit have been 20% difference, but it was different side to side and stayed constant no matter the azimuth adjustments made. Sonically however, was dead equal, both with raw listen... | |
| Channel Balance on Dynavector XV1-S Almarg, had similar experience with the Foz and an XV-1s. No audible issue though. I could never get the Foz to be similar in both channels as I adjusted azimuth. The difference was constant despite adjustments. Cart checked out fine with voltmeter. | |
| Service from Audio Research I agree. Just tell the dealer to replace the amp. Keep the loaners until the other new ARC 250 comes in. Sucks to have another 2-3 week wait for the new amp, but it's the best option. This really sounds more like a dealer behavior problem than an ... | |

| Wilson Audio Sasha 2 & Avalon Indra In my opinion they are very comparable loudspeakers in price only. From there, many differences emerge. Wilsons and Avalons sound quite different in my opinion. Wilsons have more robust bass and dynamics while Avalons throw a more realistic sounds... | |
| Service from Audio Research Tli,I noitced in your video that the power light inidcator remains on even though the meter lamp turns off. Is the amp actually powered down with the power light indicator still on? I have ARC ref 250's and I would really want a fix or refund as w... | |

| TW Acustic Turntable Mat Syntax, your comments sometimes are not called for on these boards. We all have things we like and value in regards to not only sound, but equipment. Much of it is based on opinions and sonic preferences.For one, the TW-mat made a significant diff... | |
| TW Acustic Turntable Mat Mat Update:After more than a week with the mat, I must say it definitely is a success and worth the investment. Depth and width of soundstage have improved. More rock solid imaging well beyond the speaker boundaries is occuring. Musicality has imp... | |
| Record Store Day... The REM Unplugged is fantastic. Great recording and super quiet vinyl. Superb. Believe it or not, worth the $90 I paid for it. | |
| Record Store Day... On the RSD site it says its a 'limited, regional release.' Not sure what that means other than probably < 1000 pressed. Crossing my fingers I get one without getting raped by eBay. |
