| Class D Technology The fact is that its too new for Class D's..... the sound is just not there. There is a class D that can compete, (Merrill - but it costs many thousands)....but for now, they are just not musical. | |
| Looking to upgrade a Dynavector 20x2L on a Scoutmaster Signature The Benz LPS MR is very much better .....upgrade to a 3D arm with 2nd pivot.....sublime. | |
| Lyra Etna SL vs. Transfiguration Proteus + Koetsu Urushi Hard to believe you don't want to stay with the LPS. Check with Soundsmith, be sure you don't just get different but not better sound in your quest. | |
| Audioquest Speakers Argent And Sterling I like the Fire series..... I tried WF Lowe Signatures....didn't work with my system. | |
| AMPLIFIER BLOCKS Try it all....what do you have to loose? Put it under preamps, CD players, et al. It really works B&M baked beans works as well....you very well might like that sound better. | |
| AMPLIFIER BLOCKS g_ I've tried 100 lb amps on 3 tomato cans (on their sides) without creating pizza. I position them at various angles to discourage rolling the amp. | |

| Would love some feedback / Denon DL-S1 / phono match / cart recomendations What I find interesting is your Nordost/Cardas cables. They are the antithesis of each other. I just wonder what sound comes out | |
| New system has fatiguing, harsh high frequency sounds. How to fix? If the speakers are not on carpet, get 2 small rugs and position them right in front of the speaker to soften the 1st arrival time. (johnnyR from AudioConnection in NJ told me about this and it works) | |
| Pioneer 150's With all the choices available, why would you aimlessly search for these? | |
| Vandie .7 vs Maggie .7 John Rutan at Audioconnection in New Jersey sells both, is very easy to talk to, and is extremely knowledgeable. Even if you don't live in NJ, give him a call for wonderful advice. You won't be sorry. | |
