| If Audio bug never hit you, what hobby might have? Yes, audio certainly does save us from sex, doesn't it...Probably because we're all fat and ugly from too many hours in 'the chair'!:) | |

| Audio Refinement CD Complete Alpha Version My experience differs from Timrhu's. After listening to a -lot- of CDP's last year the Alpha is what I chose, and it's been great. It is much, much improved from the original version in essentially every way. It really does benefit from power cord... | |
| Need an integrated amplifire for totem forest If you can afford it, I'd go with the BAT VK-300x. If not, check out Unison or Audio Aero, but I'd worry a bit about lack of power. | |
| I am not an opera fan...but... Personally, I think a great way to start is with Mozart, especially The Magic Flute. Der Fledermaus (Johann Strauss who in most ways I despise) is also really fun and very accessible. | |

| cdp digital volume control or preamp? That's an excellent point. Is it passive or active? | |
| What age did the "audio bug" hit you? Well, I remember dancing around to Paul Simon's Graceland and the West Side Story soundtrack when I was around 6. That was 15 years ago... My family owns a furniture store, and there's a high end audio place nearby. The guy who owns it wanted to d... |
