| ARAGON 8008 MK.2 or McCormack DNA 225 ? I think you answered your own question. "both good amps" Some camps say one is better.....How about Plinius? Sa - 100III is great used amp, both burly and refined. Heard good things about McCormack and Aragon. You'd have to buy T.A.S. website and ... | |
| New Elvis Costello- Analog Masters? Spencer, that made me pull out my armed forces LP and play it!Cheers, Hammy | |
| New Elvis Costello- Analog Masters? I don't know, but my aim is true LP sounds MUCH better than the CD. You can always copy it onto CD. | |
| Beogram 3000 linear tracking worth resurecting? Steve - part of your resurrection will be buying 2 new rubber belts for the table. It will be worth it if everything but the needle works. | |
| Cartridge for Gyro SE/ Rega RB300 &Slee Gold Era V Anyone suggest Dynavector yet? 10x4 or 10x5 if you can afford it. I use the 10x4 w/ rb250 (stock with rega p2) with great results- It blows away the rega planet 2k CD player. Of course, I haven't tried SACD yet. I'm happy with the analog! | |
| Beogram 3000 linear tracking worth resurecting? I sold that table- It's very good for a non- audiophile table. B&O invented developed linear tracking with laser feedback to keep the cartridge in the center of the groove. It's much better than your kenwood. The problem is getting new cartidg... | |
| Rare Fisher KS-1 Heritage Series Speakers They are worthless as speakers....so I suppose you are asking about antique value? They are very rare. | |
| Old Classic Receivers: A Mistake to Buy? Minty, I use that old Pioneer for a boat anchor. It works much better than the separates of today! Those engineers must have been boating enthusiasts too! | |
| Desperately seeking opinions on amp I heard the BX1 (I worked for a Yamaha dealer at the time) and it is NOT TO BE CONFUSED with the MX-1000, which in my opinion, was more of the harsh transistor crap of Yamaha on a slide. (Though the cx-1000 companion preamp was much better). It wa... | |
| NAD T973 Power Amp - Power Rating 7x145w or 2x200w Indeed, be careful, because there's more to amp design than watts. NAD is a very good company, and what I had before I bought my first high end amp. This amp had less power but sounded much better for music. Still, I think NAD is a fine choice. Ju... | |
| How old is too old ?.... Hifinut- used Sonata II', are now 2500, about the original cost of the 104.2, and a spectacular buy. The original Sonata is probably cheaper, and is a spectacular speaker, with less bass (although it doesn't roll off until mid 30's). Sonatina or P... | |
| Silverline Sonata II or Sonatina II Ihave the Sonata II, and LOVE THEM! My room is not much bigger- 19 x 13. The Sonatas are a big speaker, and do't like to be right next to the wall, so they do take up space. Having said that, they are a lot less fussy about placement as some other... | |
| Speakers to match a CARY SLI-80 Silverline Sonata II's are available used for $2500. Tremendous tube friendly speaker, it is 2 db more sensitive than the naia and extends 15 hertz lower in the bass- to 25 hertz. The effortless midrange is the highpoint of this speaker, but the b... | |
