| The best speaker you ever heard? Heh!!! Tannoy Churchill are for sale in NY now for $6000 used -- A killer for brands under $30000! I can only want them for now even for that much reduced... | |
| Together everyone was stronger than any one person alone ...whatever happened inside of hijacked planes before we can only assume that there weren't enough time for passengers to realize that planes had been hijacked. Probably only on one that crashed on the fields of Pensilvanya had a fight between pas... | |

I want this thread open as long as possible to accumulate your information.I have Totem Forest that is 87db sencitive.I currently have Bryston 3b-st to drive them.I've been offered to audition to Cary Cad 50M tube m... | |
| Best Integrated 50wpc under 600 used I have owned Creek 4330R integrated amp.It uses passive preamplifier part which has only attenuator, tape monitor and component switch. For the bucks this amp does more than you'll pay for it. You should probably have to have a good quality source... | |
| Lack of Bass from my BAT VK-5i Preamp... One of my friends once bought BAT VK-60 amp with VTL preamp(do not remember a precise model) No matter of impedance values on both ends which were good enough to match, he had the same problem as you do. He was advised to go onto BAT completely me... | |
| Digital Interconnect Questions What kind of brands of digital cable sold in Circus City?Is there any difference between Circus City and Circuit City?If you've already spent about $10k on your digital end than the digital interconnect cable will make a difference but not as big ... | |
| How good is my source? Heh...Here is my chance:Has anyone notice that Cornfedboy is trying to make everyone to look stupid and there is only Cornfedboy who is "righteous" in Audiogon? As far as on my listening opinion, the digital fatigue described by Mrowlands is prese... | |
| Best Blank Cassette Tapes You can surf e-bay for BASF. I would suggest to take type one tape since it's not damaging the tape head and less noisy. I'm not sure if AMPEX is still producing them but they used to be very good. | |
| Cause of speaker static? I completely agree with Rockvirgo. Digital components can be realy noisy. The biggest source is power line.1. Try to use a good quality power cord2. Try to connect your digital source onto the different power line or to the power conditioner/power... | |
| Is Audio Research PH3 phono the best for today's price? By the way, I've compared Black Cube with power supply upgrades($900) in the demo room with AR PH3 on couple of jazz and rock vinyls -- AR outperforms in both cases. Phonomena lays back even with battery power supply to both Black Cube and AR as w... | |
| Modulus 3A MM phono.Need help with cart choices. look for cartridges from 1 to 3mV output voltage. For example: Dynavector 20xh has 2.5mV and $500 new. Excellent for Jazz fusion and any kind of Rock, a little bit agressive for a classical music. | |
| Why Can We plug our AMPS directly into wall w/o Worrying? Interesting! Once I was lazy to plug in my new EAD DSP700 MKII DAC and I tried it in the wall... The sound of 60Hz was audiable even on small volume of the preamp. Now I keep everything into my Panamax including Bryston 3b-st power amplifier. Pana... | |
| What do you choose first SOUND or MUSIC? Cool answers! I always choose the music first and even my analogue setup allowes me to "adjust" my tonearm to a different styles of music. Currently it's "positioned" to a Rock/Fusion with bright upper mids. Guess what? I lift it up a little highe... | |
| BEST CARTRIDGE FOR ROCK AND METAL? Benz is nice for great musicality, but lacks a lot in dynamics. I'd go for Dynavector te Katiora which is extreamly fast enough for reproducing blusts of drumbeats and fast guitar passages with clarity. | |
| What is the best solid state moving coil phono section? If there is $2000 to spend than www.dact.com can offer a state of the art phono section + power supply that you'll have to enclose by yourself into chasis. There is a big + if you can choose a shape of the chasis to fit your components isn't it? |
