| How come a power cable changes the sound? I have tried a few lower end pcs and have found no difference although I am not saying that with the right cord a difference could not be realized. Its my opinion that an aftermarket pc unless properly filtered would only enhance or magnify the "n... | |
| Rega Planet 2000 Miked - unfortunately in Calgary and the list was $1450. I would recommend inquiring at another dealer in Red Deer -Audio West (Gary) who sold Planets in the past and if he still carries the line he is competitive. Tell him Ron from Okotoks passed... | |
| Rega Planet 2000 Saw it on the weekend and listened in a very busy environment so I cannot comment accuratly on its sonics. The dealer reported that its list price was only $100 (Canadian) over the previous model so it would appear that given its reported advantag... | |
| Best Customer Service (Manufacturer) Purchased a used BP25 preamp and when received the separate power supply had been monkeyed with. The previous owner,(jerk) had hard wired (and very poorly I might add) in a crappy orange extension cord in hopes of making his own "upgraded" power c... | |
| Magic with Magneplanars? While you could be inundated with combinations up the wazoo, I would suggest a pair of Bryston 7B's matched up with a decent tube preamp (fill in your choice...) | |

| Bryston 4B-ST overkill for Paradigm ?? We all have to draw our own line in the sand somewhere... If you do not perceive the Bryston to be worth 3X as much then it will not be a good buy in your eyes. Purchasing the 4BST will no doubt alleviate any amp "upgraditis" you might get with th... | |
| where to find sacd's?? Once you decide what sacd's to buy sign on to www.hmv.com - great prices and if you buy 4 or more then its free shipping. | |
| Bryston 3B-ST or 4B-ST A few reviews at Audioreview indicate that some people prefer the sonics of the 3B over the 4B. If you look at straight power then the 4B will play about 3dB more than the 3B will so its not a helluva lot louder. I have owned both and can tell you... | |

| Tube Pre-amp beneficial? Try befreo you buy but I think adding in a tube preamp will give you what you are looking for. I replaced my Bryston BP25(SS) with a Rogue 66 tube preamp and it has made the largest difference in a positive way with both my former speakers - Acous... | |
| Favorite Xmas movie ? Classic- It's a Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart, somewhat modern day - A Christmas Story | |
| Coincident interconnect opninions I have the CST IC's between my Arcam 8se and my Rogue 66 as well as between my Rogue and Bryston 4BST. I find them to be the best copper IC's I have used to date. Let me qualify that I have never auditioned any of the super high end cables such as... | |
| Beautiful Speakers As this model is relatively new and I assume you haven't had them that long - how did you get them in the house without the Wife going along with their look??? My god man, it is my opinion that you have one of the finest speakers that can be owned... | |
| B&O, overpriced artistic piece of audio? While impressive in looks and moderately OK in sonics B&O gear has always impressed those who are looking to impress. You have a very nice system that is heads & shoulders above B&O (IMHO). |
