| What's the best preamp for under 1000 I think a used Sonic Frontiers Line 1 is a good choice. It is not as transparent as the Placette (but almost) BUT, you get ALL the features one could possibly want in this price range and more. A cool, round aluminium remote. H/T loop, phase inver... | |
| Sonic Frontiers pre Line 2 :off or stand by I used to own a Line 1. Sonic Frontiers tech dept advice: Leave it on standby at all times! | |
| +++Magnum Dynalab MD-208 Reciever+++ I had this receiver once for a week on loan by the dealer. Very much disapointed. It's amp section is the ''economy line'' Celeste from Sim Audio, the same found in the Celeste 5080 integrated ( now ''rebadged'' Moon I-3, shame on you SIM, as it d... | |
| Need inexpensive power line conditioner guidance. Try some pug-in Quiet-Lines. Inexpensive and a real ear-opener. | |
| Sony DVP9000es Audio Settings To Flemke: Where have you found bad review? I have found many great ones, most of them in fact, where are the bad ones? | |
| Help please pre-tuner as a stand-alone tuner ??? Thanks for the help. Connecting the pre-out to the line in of the tube integrated yields lesser quality sonics than the tape out jacks on this same pre-amp. Sure, the pre-amps remote can be used to control the integrated, but it's not worth it son... | |
| Help please pre-tuner as a stand-alone tuner ??? Thanks for your help guys, it's a puzzling question. The idea of having at least the on-off feature through the pre-amp is nice BUT...as for the integrated plugged in to the pre-amp , seems I would just be routing the power through unnecessary sta... | |

| Krell or Classe Integrated for Sonus Faber Concert I own Sonus Faber Grand Piano Home speakers. They have the same tonal balance as the Concertos, with a slightly lower bass extension. This means the Concertos are great speakers.My absolute worst match was the Sim Audio I-5.I really don't know wha... | |
| How To Burn CD's So It Will Play In Sony DVPS9000? Yes it will play CDR-W's perfectly. I also have a music cd-R from Maxell that was recorded with the EXACT CD copy software (free on the Net)and I can hear Harry Belafonte loud and clear. I have not used this software myself, so I cannot garantee i... | |
| ultimate CD-R burner system? Reading up on an earlier post GO WITH THE SLOWEST SPEED AVAILABLE . Copying a cd at 40X is just a bad proposition sonically, with all the audible pops and clicks. Try to stay at 8X and under if you can. The sound quality is amazing compared to fas... | |
| Great Small Speakers w/ high WAF? I am very surprised that no one mentionned the undisputed champion in the category. It's really a no-brainer when you consider the sound, build quality and sexy looks that is a departure from all the still-good-looking-but still-a -square box spea... | |
| Can anyone tell me about CD demagnatizers? One thing is for sure. They do alter the sound of cd's. How you evaluate this change from positive to negative is purely subjective. For me, it is a must have to be able to clear all kinds of sonic smog. Even the small hand-held Bedini provides so... | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music John Williams "Cavatina", the classical guitar theme from the movie "The Deerhunter" with Robert De Niro. Heard it 20 years ago, still haunts me to this day. | |
| Audio and Wine? My honest truth opinion? After 3 glasses of wine ALL audio systems sound pretty good, it's whatever the music inspires you that takes over. Louis Armstrong's "What a beautifull world" sound much better on a cheapie boom-box than an Englebert Humpe... |
