| Best HOME system you've ever heard The best I ever heard was a system at Deja Vu Audio in Mclean, VA. It was an Esoteric DV-50 universal player, into one of Vu's preamps and amp. He builds incredible sounding gear. This system fed a pair of single driver horn loaded speakers he had... | |
| A Sad Day... Rosstaman,There's always a second chance to do it over and better, have faith. And good luck on the photographic journey, don't forget to seek the advice of our own fabulous photo professionals, Marco and Albert Porter. I'm sure much sage advice a... | |
| HDCD'S Most of the releases from the Grateful Dead are hdcd's. If you're into classical all of the titles from Reference Recordings are hdcd's, Keith Johnson invented hdcd I think. | |
| A question about lasers?? The lasers that read dvds and cd's are on different wavelengths I believe but no laser can damage a cd, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. I'm positive on the second point, I may be incorrect on the wavelength thing though. | |
| auxillary ground question I have no info but just wanted to express my condolences on the loss of your cd player. May you be up and playing tunes quickly! | |
| New Cowboy Junkies- Wow Nickt,So how'd you like my speakers and what did you drive them with? I'm currently using an 18 watt per side KR Audio tube amp and I'm amazed at how easy they are to drive and how great they sound. In my small room a sub isn't really needed. I ge... | |

| Best phono-pre for mc-systems below $ 1.500,00 ? I like my Camelot Lancelot Pro, a battery powered mm/mc phono amp. There's one on here right now (no connection) for $550, snap it up. Good luck! | |
| Sin City , sinfully delicious sound Well I just picked up a cheap long interconnect to run my dvd player into my preamp so that I can hear the soundtrack in full tubed glory. I'm not really a home theatre guy so if anyone has any advice let me know. I'm only equiped to do stereo I a... | |
| Vassar Clements R. I.P. Vassar was one of the true legends of bluegrass and Americana music and will be sorely missed. Luckily for all of us his recorded output was enormous so there are plenty of formats to enjoy his virtuoso playing. Vassar, we know you're in heaven pl... | |

| High output DAC? If you can find a used Timbre TT1 balanced model you would be all set. It had a regular rca output, but also a special buffered 7v output for driving passive preamps. It also had balanced outputs but I don't know what the output voltage of those w... |
