| Advice Needed I have this issue and get frequent warnings on the forums portion of audiogon from Malwarebytes. It did affect the sales portion but this appears to have been corrected. What I don't understand, perhaps you do, what benefits do I get, other than ... | |
| Phono Stage question Yes. Take the phono stage out via the ’tape out’ on your Denon to any input on your ARC. | |
| My 6922 Tubes Are Too Bright! I was not aware that Mullard made a new production 6922/6dj8. Where were these found? | |
| My 6922 Tubes Are Too Bright! The new production JJ/Tesla E88CC is a very warm tube and quiet tube that I have used in a CDP with success. I've also used it in a headphone amp. It's cheap so give it a try, not much to lose. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados I haven't heard this recording, or for that matter any of his recordings. My go to Preludes have been those by Tatiana Nikolayeva on Hyperion. I'll have to give his a try.FWIW, another Shostakovich performance I really enjoy is his Aphorisms, op13... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Bought a couple of CD’s from Presto a couple of months ago without problems. Never have had a problem with them. | |
| Audiogon is infected? Me too. No pretty pictures. I guess I'll have to re-subscribe to the glossies.If I were trying to sell or buy I'd sure be bitching about it though.Interesting no one else has complained. | |
| Interconnects and non-believers Apart from the possibility that the naysayer's systems are not revealing enough or set up poorly, the reason folks do not hear the differences is likely that they have not learned how to listen for sonic nuances as you apparently have. There reall... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Schubert, LOL, I've got a confession too. I'm not a newbie either. :-)I have a few of Lupu's Schubert recordings which I really enjoy, but perhaps not so much as Richard Goode's recordings of his piano sonatas on Non-such. But that is probably on... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados twoleftears, Re Boleros - Yep! Note in another thread there is a post by Granyring on the thread ’What used speakers rarely come up for sale to which I responded. Mine aren’t going anywhere. After 7 years they remain my eminent piece of audio gear... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Schubert, FWIW, mainly because your moniker suggests a special interest, a recording of some Schubert's music for solo piano that I can't resist listening to fairly often when I'm in the mood for Schubert, "Le Voyage Magnifique" by Maria Joao Pir... | |
| What used speakers raraely come up for sale Its interesting to note that while many other other models have come and gone over the past 10 years Silverline is still making this model yet it rarely comes up for sale used. I've had mine for over 7 years now and they sure aren't going anywhere... | |
| Slight "Crackling" noise in right channel of amp A crackling sound on one side is IMHO more likely a tube issue than a grounding issue. Try switching left channel tubes and right channel tubes and see if the sound changes speakers as well. If it is a tube issue it could be something as simple as... | |
| Classical composers, symphonies No one has mentioned any American composers yet - be sure to check out Arron Copland, Samuel Barber, and Howard Hanson. Specifically don't miss Copland's Symphony #3 on the Reference Recording label (an audiophile's wet dream), Barbers Symphonies ... | |
| Classical composers, symphonies Re Sibelius, Symphony #2 is a favorite of most coming new to this music. It is more 'romantic' than most of his music and it is usually played 'big'. His first symphony is more like some of Tchaikovsky's symphonies in its style (however it is mus... |
