| Hey Trelja........ Thanks for filling in the gaps. While i haven't listened to all of those that you did comparisons with, i can agree with the basic statements that you made about the MF gear. It is very clean, clear, detailed, etc.... but just doesn't have any "bo... | |
| Anyone received a Millenium DAC II ?? I too have been waiting on one of these. Ric told me that i would have mine the first week of February yet i've still heard nothing from him. Now here's the "scary" thing. The original "comments" about the Millenium II were made by "Mel". He found... | |
| New Age, Neo-Celtic, World Beat Music Hey Craig, do you like any "harder" Celtic influenced music ??? I do agree that Loreena Mc has some great stuff. Not real familiar with most of the other stuff mentioned though. Sean | |
| Burn In = Voodoo? Jim's post is FAR too sensible to be listed in this forum : ) Most of the stuff that he listed ( CD "stabilizing rings", markering the edges, etc...) all DETRACT from disc readability. The only thing that i've found to make a noticeable improvemen... | |
| Leave amps on or off? I think that this topic has been covered in depth many times over. Anybody that has done comparisons will tell you that SS amps sound best after being on for at least 24+ hours. They also last longer being left on all the time (all things being eq... | |
| BI-AMP/WIRE basics? INFINITY KAPPA 9 Regardless of the power rating of your Yamaha, those speakers WILL suck up a lot of power. The more that you have, the cleaner, clearer, louder and less stressed it will sound all things being equal. As previously mentioned, DO NOT bridge an amp i... | |
| FM antenna made simple Glad that it is working out a little better for you. The reason that i said to mount it in the window was for specific reasons. If it is mounted in the middle of a window, it is not REAL close to any metal that might detune it plus it is still ind... | |
| Ethics of last minute auction "poaching" Cutting in line ? Hardly. Doug's basic premise is NOT what an auction is about. Putting in bids "in an orderly fashion" would be just like the seller "taking offers" in a specific order. If that is what the seller wanted to do, they would have don... | |
| Measuring Vibration in Equipment I was recently wondering about this myself. I would LOVE to be able to conduct some tests dealing with this subject. Sean> | |
| Vintage Marantz Phild, i do not want to modify them for the "collectability" issue. Should i decide to keep them, i will do as Rushton has done and go through them piece by piece. At this point in time, i think that they'll be gone in less than a week or two judg... | |
| "Forward" sounding ICs and Cables? For some reason, Redkiwi's post wasn't there when i submitted my first post. Either way, his findings about interconnects with high capacitance are right on the money. They typically produce a warm tonal balance with slightly sunken or "recessed" ... | |
| OPinions on Forte Model 3 I have owned most of the Forte' amps at one time and still own several. The 3 is a very sweet and airy sounding amp but lacks bottom end "oomph". Even though it is rated for 200 wpc @ 8 and 350 wpc @ 4, it doesn't seem to have the same impact as o... | |
| "Forward" sounding ICs and Cables? Thank You Cornfed...... Sean> | |
| Ethics of last minute auction "poaching" Msnloeth, BLBloom and Going Once all hit it on the head with various points. Why telegraph your moves to "the enemy" that your competing against ? It makes no sense if your competing for the same item and there are only so many to go around. There... | |
| PC Spectrum Analyser? There is a program called "Spectra-Lab" or something of that sorts. I have used it briefly and it is quite versatile. Can't speak for how much it costs though as it was someone else's computer. As to finding a microphone that is quite excellent fo... |
