| So close yet so far....oh the pain of it all Now that's a horror story, but that's also the value of a good dealer. Hope the ending is a happy one! | |
| Any Proac Supertower Owners Out There? I think that Millersound can do the repair work for this sort of thing--they're in the Philadelphia/Trenton area, I believe, and usually advertise in the audio magazines. | |
| Audiogon/Asylum and magazine reviewers posts I saw that post as well and had the same reaction. I find that while a lot of the discussions at AA can be provocative and informative (particularly the tubes forum), too many of them seem to me to be bordering on paranoia and distrust of any esta... | |
| SACDs that are up to the challenge - in stereo Try Telarc's Mahler 5th with Zander conducting, their Vaughn-Williams Sea Symphony with Spanos and the Atlanta Symphony, and the San Francisco Symphony's Mahler 6th (their own label, distributed by Delos or available from their website) with Tilso... | |
| DVD-A Question Folks, please correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding from a post a while back on this forum from Kevin Halvorson and from what I've seen on AA and elsewhere since then is that DVD-A discs (NOT DVD-V discs, i.e. DADs) are encrypted so that t... | |
| DVD-A Question Actually, I believe that no DVD-A disc will allow for the passing of any 24/96 digital signal--that's my main complaint about DVD-A, you're stuck with the DAC in the player for 24/96 playback. | |
| benz ruby I think it was 1999 or 2000. You might want to check with Garth at Musical Surroundings. I seem to recall the old Ruby being around .2mv output, a very low number, and why I chose the Reference over it when I bought a Reference in 1998. When the R... | |
| Townshend The Seismic Sink, how to use it?? The wall-wart is there so that you can see the LEDs which tell you if the unit needs inflating. You don't need to have it on all the time; some units have slow losses of air, some never seem to lose air (I have one that is always in need of a pump... | |
| Should I use LAST Preservative or Uranium 238? The nice thing about the U238 is that your records will glow in the dark, so you'll have no problem cueing up the stylus! | |
| benz ruby I believe that the Ruby was made in the mid to later 90s, as the next step up after the Reference in the Benz line. I'm not sure of all the technical details, but one big (maybe the only) difference between the Ruby and the Ruby 2 I recall is that... | |
| Day-Sequerra FM tuners Thanks, Jerryvan, I had done a search of my archived messages and just found Linda's name and number as well. I don't know if they still have one, but GTT Audio-Video (908-850-3092) once had one up for sale earlier this year, it may not have sold.... | |
| Personal speaker evolution Mrpoindexter: Please don't tell us you're using the two pairs of Betas as surrounds with the IRS as the main front speakers in an HT set-up!!! What's your listening room, Royal Albert Hall?? | |
| Day-Sequerra FM tuners If no one else responds, check the auctions, there's one up for auction where the seller says it was just realligned and upgraded by David Day--maybe the seller can tell you. Then please report it here, as a few of us could use the info as well! | |
| Museatex str55's amps worth exploring? The Meitner products are really very good. They have a very full, rich tonal quality that many solid state amps lack, and terrific dynamics and ability to drive virtually all speakers. The only thing I'd point out is that the Meitner amps seem a l... | |
| What about "Pro" vs. Audiophile ????? Maybe we're trying to get closer to the music than the master tape. That may not necessarily be more revealing or accurate, but it is better if it connects us to the music better. Pro gear that I've heard just sounds sterile and uninvolving--give ... |
