Best Phono Pre-amp..for the money?
it was also good to read the follow-ups - a person obviously sceptical about exotic cable being worthwhile, yet he's keeping the stuff in his system from the only mfr who had the guts to take him up on his challenge - this article should be posted...

sibelius, thanks for the update. while i can't blame yer unwillingness to get into the tweekiness, i feel that even if ya did *no* x-over mods, wertical bi-amping would be at least as much of an improvement over bi-wired monoblocs as the monoblocs... 
Do I want more bass?
check out vmps - ewe can get a pair of their larger subs brand-gnu, coupled w/a decent used hi-power solid-state amp & a gnu marchand xm-9 active x-over, for less than *one* top-model velodyne or rel. vmps makes killer subs period - at their r...

mgs - THANK YOU!!! :>) i, too, eagerly await info from sibelius. sorry about the little diwersion, but when attacked, i feel compelled to respond. i should try harder to abstain altogether from such petty nonsense - as said on another thread re...

Tuners to audition under 700
i agree w/what nandersond is saying, except, for one thing - in the lo-buck arena, i tink the adcom gft-1a tuna has better sound & better sensitivity than the nec t6e - i had the opportunity to compare this tuna directly w/my adcom tuna, &... 
Tuners to audition under 700
the last marantz 2130 i saw on ebay was over $600 when i stopped following it... 
How does one get off the merry-go-round?
jmslaw, i don't see it that way - if some amazing gnu *affordable* technology came out that provide the *perfect* reproduction of live sound (whatever that is - i've gone to some comcerts & thought it sounded better at home!), i'd be happier t... 
How does one get off the merry-go-round?
djlackey, yer description sounds closest to mine - i'm mostly satisfied w/my system, & generally hang on to someting for quite a while before getting the upgrade itch, & then usually upgrade one ting at a time. changing software helps - li...

What is ceiling smear?
snooker's post is prolly more informative than mine, :>) but 1st-reflections from the ceiling can be ameliorated w/acoustical panels, the same way ewe deal w/them from the side-walls: place the panel at the point where ewe could see the speaker... 
John Hartford
i was lucky enuff to see john a couple of times, but the last time was ~15 years ago. as kelly sez, he really got into his shows - quite the performer. i still spin a couple of his lps on the platter... i'm saddened to here this - i dint know he w...
