| Stevie Ray Vaughan SRV commented that this was when he was at his very best - clean & sober. | |
| Polk audio rt2000p or LSi 25 big difference ? I had the earlier version of your RT2000p - the RT20p. My son now owns them and they are still plugging along. I looked at the LSi25 when I was preparing to upgrade. This was when Tweeter was still in business. $1800/pr was the negotiated price. I... | |
| Help me replace my Rotel 1072 To replace your RCD-1072 with a better CDP would require going to the $2000 range - like a Rega Saturn. The 1072 is a great CDP. I had one and sold it for $400. I now have a McIntosh MCD500 SACD player. | |
| Which one to get: McIntosh C2300 or Mcintosh C2500 This is the last month of C2300 production - get it before it is gone forever . The DAC on the C2500 is good BUT DACs are constantly changing and upgraded. The DAC in your MCD500 is very good and can be used as an outboard DAC. | |
| Alvin Lee dead at 68 One of the most under-appreciated guitarist of the classic rock era. My instant image of Woodstock is of Alvin Lee leaving the stage after a Ten Years After encore with a watermelon in his hands. | |
| Upgrade from Rega P3-24 ..... On my original P5 I had an Exact cartridge - I liked it. When Iupgraded to a P7 I added the Dynavector DV20XH - WOW - I was not expecting the improvement I got. A very good HO MC cartridge. I got another WOW moment when I stepped up again with a P... | |
| crackling sound out of right speaker Are you using jumper cables betwenn posts? If so, be sure the jumper's posts are tightly screwed down. | |
| McIntosh MVP891, MVP881, or MCD500, MCD301? Ooops - sorry. OK< I had a MVP-871 prior to my MCD500. I got the 871 for audio playback only. I had heard from previous users that is was a very good redbook player and the SACD was exceptional for a multi-format player. I ended up trading in t... | |
| McIntosh MVP891, MVP881, or MCD500, MCD301? He is looking for CD playback only. A MVP871 is a fantastic SACD/CD player that happens to play DVD also.For $1700 used it seems to be in his price range. | |
| What do you use to polish wood plinth? Give SOTA a call and get their suggestion on what to do. | |
| McIntosh MVP891, MVP881, or MCD500, MCD301? A used MVP871 will get you close to a MCD500 or MVP891. You can get those for $1700 used. | |
| Which integrated amp? There is a nice combo on Audiogon now in your price range - a Rotel RC-1580 preamp and a RB-1582 amp. I use thie same to drive B&W N804 and ASW800 subwoofer to loud, clean levels. | |
| Shout out to Syntax - re: Delos For the price the Delos is a gem - competes with $2500 MC on the market. | |
| Ed Cassidy of Spirit is dead Saw them in 1978 at a venue in Granite City, IL - The Grainery. Promoter did not book them a place to stay after the show and they were not going to play because of that. I allowed them to stay at my house - what a memory. Very nice and cordial, a... | |
| NEW Rega RP6 - Anyone own one yet? IMO an RP6 and above (RP8) needs a good quality MC or at very least a HOMC. With my P9 I am using a Lyra Delos and feel that this cartridge is not doing my table justice. |
