| Best Budget Rig sub $600 I helped my cousin match that same receiver with Athena speakers. If you can find some Tannoy MX series speakers, they would be a good pickup. Lots of good value price/performance cables available. | |
| Speaker Cable-The Best of the Cheap? I have 20ft runs of Vampire Wire continuous cast(some companies market it as "single crystal") copper 12 ga. They are two separate cables(1 red, 1 black). The quality of the copper is substantially better than Monster and many other cables. Call S... | |
| Budget Best: MAS , Reality, Element, LAT, PNF? I will heartily recommend MAS cable. I use the Digital Reference, the Gray Silver as a sub cable and the Signatures as I/C's. These are excellent sounding cables at very reasonable prices and Stu is great to talk with. | |
| Any John Hartford fans? I'm another. Areoplane is one of my favorite LPs. | |
| Why not use a PC style UPS? I just picked up one of the APC units Sugarbrie is talking about, the A15 yesterday. It replaced a Powervar and I'll not go back. I am most impressed with the performance. It has isolated filter banks for "Video" (TV & VCR), "High Current" (Am... | |
| musical drummers...who are they ??? Pic Withers? Hahahahahahaahah. Listen to "Making Movies, he's nowhere close to being in sync. He may have gotten better after that, but in my mind, he's a hack. | |
| Analog point of entry... There are a bunch of used LP12's for pretty cheap on the "Gon right now. I love mine. It's a "hands on" TT.Also, who's this friggin' Marco or friggin' Jax2? What, the guy's got more than one friggin' name? Yeah, he's friggin' silly alright. | |
| electrical outlets I also used the Levitons in my last home. Currently, I found Pass & Seymour outlets at our local Lowe's/HD competitor Menard's. They're both good. | |
| What is the best Frank Sinatra CD? Even though I own the three-cd set "The Capitol Years", listening to Frank on anything but vinyl somehow seems wrong. I own many Sinatra lps and the Jobim is very good as someone else mentioned and is available new. | |
| Are we all destined to be "womenless" audiophiles? We "audio enthusiasts" have all of the women. Enthusiasts consider their significant others a bit more important than their audio equipment. It's more enjoyable too. | |
| Does length matter with Toslink cables I can't imagine it does. After all, fiberoptic is what many phone companies bury underground for miles and miles for phone service. Since it's not really an electrical transmission as much as a light signal, I don't believe there would be any degr... | |
| How to be an online curmudgeon? What a GREAT way to start the weekend! A fun read. Thanks. | |
| recommendation for best low cost rca interconnect Outlaw PCA's. You can get 3 pair for DVD-A for less than the cost for one pair of some of the other suggestions. I used them for DVD-A when I listened to that format. Well-built, continuous cast copper with locking rca's. | |
| who makes a good toslink cable? Yep, I've got thoughts. I've used both the 100 nd 200. Don't bother unless you're considering that cheap glass ebay special POS. Otherwise Monster is overpriced. I hold to the VDH Optocoupler. | |
| who makes a good toslink cable? Van den Hul Optocoupler. |
