| Another Inexpensive Monitor Thread, $300 used There are some nice MB Quarts for sale that would work very nice. | |
| You have to be at least 50 years old Well, I'm the baby so far on this thread(47). But I'm pretty sure it was Audio Visual. The days, had a JVC receiver driving stacked Advents. Funny thing is as good as it seemed to be, just like the present,I always lusted for a Carver system with ... | |
| Gerry Rafferty dies God Bless you Chadnliz. I was a hopeless drunk once but thanks to God and support from a lot of caring souls who did not have your attitude I made it. Now I own my own business and am living very comfortably. I hope you never have to deal with add... | |
| Gerry Rafferty dies Kudos! Blindjim, Man I have a whole new respect for you as I'm a recovering alcoholic. This October will be 10 years sober for me. People can really show their true colors when it comes to an addiction discussion. Like you said one can never under... | |
| Ultralinear vs. Triode vs. SET SETs are where it's at! With the right speaker SETs are the reference. My favorite is a 45 SET. Playing through my Cardersound Madisons with the planet 10 fostex is very nice.You'll notice much more detail,staging will be accurate with each record... | |
| Wyred for Sound DAC 2 or Peachtree Nova Well, I agree it's a mystery. The proof is in the listening. Even listening in the 16/44 radio streaming is better. Don't get caught up in the numbers and such. Just listen! | |

| Wyred for Sound DAC 2 or Peachtree Nova Mingles, I did replace the Bel Canto with the W4S Dac. It's no contest between the two. I really didn't expect as much of a difference as I found. Without going into a lot of hoopla, let's just say that the W4S bettered the Dac 3 in every category... | |

| Wyred Dacs--Thoughts? DAC 2 | |
| Wyred Dacs--Thoughts? Well hearing is believing! I got this DAC to see(hear) what the buzz was about. To say I'm impressed would be an understatement. Blown away is more like it. Go get one and be amazed is all I can say. | |
| Thought on OTL tube amps I'm sorry, but OTLs can't begin to match SET amps on the right speakers. That being OTLs on the right speaker as well. | |
| unison research smart 845 Try it! You might be surprised! A friend used a 845 SET to drive Aerial 7Bs which are 86db and are notorious for being hard to drive. It sounded great. | |
| New Tom Petty I'm real impressed that T.P. can put out his own blues without covering all the past stuff.It may not be perfect but he sure ain't scared to give it a try and that's what I like about it. It's refreshing and new. I've always been a Tom Petty fan s... | |
