| High Quality FM Tuner - Advice doug: like you, i still have an onix tuna with soap. (yes, it's a great little bargain of a tuna. no, it ain't as good as the accuphase.) i'm using it much less recently, since our "state" npr outlet decided to split into 2 stations, broadcasting ... | |
| Electrostat Speakers with sub. Finally always glad to hear about someone else moving closer to "the absolute sound." this is what it's all about, isn't it? may your joy continue. you work hard at it, clearly have fun and are worthy of applause. bravo, kublakhan! -kelly | |
| High Quality FM Tuner - Advice the accuphase t-109v is the best tuner i've yet heard, save for the original day sequerra. plus, it's gorgeous to my eyes and built to last as long as a roman aqueduct. -kelly | |
| Power Conditioning in Apartment Complex. if your concern is the consistency and "cleanliness" of the power you'll be getting from your outlets, i'd suggest you replace your tice solo with an ac regeneration device, such as those made by ps audio. such devices take the ac power from the o... | |
| Entec Subwoofers if you can get the entec's for $1.25k, it's worth the risk. the entec's are not, BTW, likely winners of a speaker beauty contest, unless you're into "industrial chic." -kelly | |
| Entec Subwoofers several systems ago, i used a pair of entec lf-20's mated to ae-1's. this was a fun combination. the speakers played very loud and the front-firing entecs slammed me in the chest as tho i were at a rock concert. the entecs were fast enough to keep... | |
| Cones/Bearings for CD player i have yet to hear any sonic improvement from my cd transport or dac with any aftermarket product, save powercords and a zoethecus stand. my purely personal view: don't expect any miracles for $30, or even $300, if you're putin' your cash solely i... | |
| Where should the money go? i believe the basis 1400/rega 250 is the best entry level combination you can purchase. their are a handful of dealers who discount this combo sufficiently that you can also include a decent cartridge (e.g., the benz-micro glider or ace) and still... | |
| DDD CD Recordings thankfully, there are still a number of cd's produced from analogue tapes. some musicians require this; e.g., neil young. -kelly | |
| Bonnie Koloc ah yes, when "old chicago" was, indeed, old chicago. thanx for the news of the new cd. if you want a review of your bonnie koloc lp's, just sen 'em to me. i'll let you know. can't promise their return, tho. ;>) -kelly | |
| XLR to RCA? yes, there are plenty of adapters, as has been pointed in prior threads. check your pro sound (guitar and other amplified instuments) store. -kelly | |
| Music trivia anyone? re: john lennon's death. i was watching monday night football. howard cosell broke the news. my older son, who turns 32 this week, reminded me quite recently that i was so stunned that i awakened him, then a gradeschooler, to tell him, already a b... | |
| Lets fight Part2 angela: "ultracrepidarian" = adj. going too far, overstepping the mark, presumptuous.-kelly | |
| Is All The Hype About Odyssey True? mapleguy: interesting description. how they handle sax and violins? -kelly | |
| It only took 25 years it took me 3 years to complete my mint/mint collection of paul simon on japanese vinyl, when i found someone in fla. who was willing to take one of my sealed mofi's "thick as a brick" in exchange for "graceland." -kelly |
