| Can you imagine a world without vinyl? If I imagine a world without vinyl, I imagine the death of high end audio. How many audiophiles will we loose when it is finally (erroneously) accepted that Digital is better than vinyl?I heard not without sadness a couple of months ago a friend t... | |
| why are most new releases going to four sides? so much for a 'long player'. the pops, clicks, and other assorted defects are much clearer.Jaybo, maybe it's your Thorens turntable that needs upgrading?I don't have those problems other than a RARE once or twice an evening "click" at some point i... | |
| why are most new releases going to four sides? I agree with Larryi, getting up ever so often to swap LP sides is no big deal for me, I need the exercise anyway. However, sound quality is extremely important to me, so much so that when a title is available in 45 RPM format I purchase it instead... | |
| Richard Gray's 400 Pro = Emperor's New Clothes?? Definitely get help from a big commercial electrical contractor, sit down with the lead man or manager and let them know up front, exactly what your goals are. If the contractor argues, says you don't need it or does not care, then shop until you ... | |
| Richard Gray's 400 Pro = Emperor's New Clothes?? I don't know where you live or what standard the PUC holds over your electrical supplier so my answer may not apply to your situation.

| Aesthetix Calypso How many versions? Probably the same mod I just did to my Aesthetix Io, swapping most of the Mills Military for Roederstein precision metal film resistors. The Roederstein's are the standard now. Quieter, lower distortion and superior resolution. Part of the upgrade... | |
| $250 Belkin, or $1200.... Call your electrician and add circuits, keep the additional runs on the same electrical phase and use 10 gauge copper (if possible) and not less than 12 gauge no matter what.The price for the electrician, Romex and breakers may be less than what y... | |
| Richard Gray's 400 Pro = Emperor's New Clothes?? I know Richard Gray personally, he's been in my home several times and even repaired one of my amps. I flew him in from New Orleans and picked him up at the airport.I know what his conditioners sound like and they are not beneficial in my situatio... | |
