Best Cd Player under $100,000
You wouldn't happen to be trying to compensate for something, would you? It would probably be cheaper (and more satisfying) to just have that fixed. It's ok...many men feel that way (they just don't wanna talk about it). The technology is there, s... 
For Magnepans try the "Rooze" comfiguration
Does Rooze rhyme with Bose? 
Why not Music Hall TT's
The reason you don't hear them mentioned as much as, say, Rega tables is because:1. The Music Hall tables are not made for tweakers, and 2. This forum is full of tweakers.What many people on this forum can't seem to understand is that not everyone... 
Thiel 2.3 vs 2.4
Cine,I know this is *way* off topic, but what hardware combinations did you prefer (and which ones sold best for you)?This has been an interesting thread to follow. 
Tube Amps Cary V-12 or Rougue 150 mono's
This comparison was recently brought up over at the Asylum:Cary V12 vs. Rogue M-150Here's what was said:I'm not one for reviews and all the typical audiophile jargon, but I can say that on initial listening I far prefer the Cary V12R. Here are the... 
AES / Cary Six Pac - upgrade suggestions
What exactly is your current setup not giving you? What does the rest of your system look like?Being such a vague question, I suspect you'll get a lot of responses, but without context, I don't know how beneficial they will be.BTW, I use the same ... 
Are DIY, CAT5 cables really that good?
How tightly do you braid your pairs? As tight as possible, or more of a loose braid? 
help narrowing down my list of speakers, $2500
You need to spend less time on Audiogon and more time listening to speakers. Do you have any idea how differently each of the manufacturers approach speaker design? Until you narrow your scope down to 2 or 3 specific speakers (not manufacturers), ... 
Tube equipment reviews
Mprime...Thanks for the kind words. And I'm glad you're enjoying the pre-amp. Every day I seem to appreciate and enjoy the AES AE-3 DJH even more. I've currently got some EH 6SN7s in mine that shipped stock with a friend's Rogue 99 Magnum pre. Whi... 
Tube equipment reviews
How about you kick it off with this thread?I'd be really interested to hear what tubes you've tried in your (I'm assuming) AES AE-3 DJH. I've got one, but haven't done any seious rollin'.You don't also happen to have a pair of Sixpacs that you've ... 
Moving from SS to tube system
I have not (yet) been able to do a head-to-head comparison of the Rogue M-120s and the AES Sixpacs. However, I have listened to both amps with essentially the same supporting hardware, and could give some general impressions, but without a side-by... 
Starter Turntable
Why do you all have to make this sound so complicated?I was in this guys exact same position 3 years ago, was asking the exact same questions, and had the exact same concerns. If I was reading all of this advice, I'd be thinking that this is way t... 
If Thiel, Wilson, Sonus, made active speakers?????
But where would the tubes go? 
Rotel RB-1080 humm
I had a similar problem when I owned a RMB-1095. The solution was to get a cheap filter for the coax TV cable (I used a power strip that had a coax filter built in). Worked like a champ. 
Strange Tonearm Tweak. Long
I believe!!!For less than $5, I purchased 2 fishing weights from the Bass Pro Shop and some Blu-tac equivalent from the Home Depot. It took 3 attempts to figure out how much blu-tac equivalent (actually, mine is yellow) to use, but I no longer fee...
