| recommendations on a good used cd player for under $750 I've bought a lot of used gear over the years but one thing I steer clear of is anything that uses an optical drive...... The Marantz players are good, l just bought an OPPO 103D to use as a universal transport and it's a great machine. I use it... | |
| Buying Without Audition That's why if I'm buying something used I will be patient and try to find a local sale where the seller is willing to demo......I did this with my speakers not too long ago. Fortunately they sounded better with my gear than what I originally he... | |
| DAC or CD Player. Help! DAC..... I had the same thought, it's just that a good DAC can handle several inputs and serve more as the hub of a good digital system. I bought a DAC , and then a year or so later I bought a good universal player. I play everything through t... | |
| Speaker recommendations I own the Revel M106, it is such a great speaker......you should put them on your short list. Plus they are so good that should you upgrade the amp in the future you won't be compelled to upgrade them. | |
| Oppo 103 freezing......... So how did you make out? I thought my problems were cured but the other night I was trying to start Netflix and the player kept hanging up, the video was stuttering and the audio would cut out.....In addition the machine would occasionally lock ... | |
| Revel F208 by itself or F206 with a sub? I agree | |
| Help! My system is very bright it hurts my ear I would start by connecting each amp full range to the speakers. It could be the room but temporarilly eliminating the bi-amp config is where I would start. I've used 6l6gc tubes and they never seemed bright, they are well balanced so I' d be s... | |
| Your not a serious audiophile I'd you have?????? You're not an audiophile unless you have one of each type of component as a back up.... | |
| Cabinet Colors I have a pair of Revel M106 in the wood finish and they are beautiful....the white finish is attractive although I think they would be tough to sell, it's almost as if you would need the decor to match the speaker for it to look at home. | |
| Any Bluetooth wireless speakers that you like? I bought my son and daughter both UE Booms and they love them. Pretty good sound for what it is and being a waterproof/ tough design. | |
| Where do you guys buy tubes? I tried buying from Upscale.....four phone calls, I gave them my number four times...their salesmen were apparently too busy to help me out.... no return call after four attempts is pretty sad so unfortunately I can't recommend them. | |
| Lo-Fi, Mid-Fi or Hi-Fi- What's your system and why? Mid Fi..... sounds killer to me though. It's the synergy of carefully chosen, quality gear that makes it really kick ass.... What's great is that I'm an on the road tech so I spend the day in my van listening to a pretty crappy stereo if you wan... | |

| Question about valves running hours If the amp is biased correctly it can play long periods of time without issue. I listen to my amps for hours , I do turn them off when I go out though, but cycling the power for short periods actually shortens tube life | |
| Top Ten Tuners of all Time?? I love my MD102......much better than the MD90 it replaced |
