| Ipod + Wadia 170i Dock OR AppleTV + Airport Expres Here is the other thing that kind of makes the Wadia option attractive: I rip a lot of music onto my Mac at work. Having the option to bring different iPods from different places is also attractive. | |
| Ipod + Wadia 170i Dock OR AppleTV + Airport Expres Do folks who use the AppleTV route have one big enough to store most of the music on or do they stream to the AppleTV from another Mac? Is there an advantage going via an AppleTV over going directly from the Airport Express into the DAC? | |
| Sound Hi Fi Technics Jelco/SME arm upgrades That Tone Audio got me to place an order with Sound HiFi. I'm expecting the SME arm and PSU in the next few weeks. I'll let you know what I think. | |
| Turntable in $155-2500 range Johnnyb53:I always appreciate your insights. I have spent a lot of time with my 1200 over the last 48 hours (Grant Green, Idle Moments, right now), and it is pretty solid. A few questions: 1: How big of an impact is the external PSU? ...and which ... | |
| Turntable in $155-2500 range Michael: I really like my Technics and intend to keep it (and probably pass it along to my kids, once they are older). I turned 40 this year and have been thinking about stepping into another turntable for a while and thought that it would be a ni... | |
| Turntable in $155-2500 range Where do I find one of those stateside? The Well Tempered, that is. | |

| Speaker upgrade - suggestion I recently changed my speakers (it was not really an upgrade). I auditioned a number that others have suggested (PSB Synchrony One, Totem Forest, Standmounted Dynaudio Contours (I forget the model), the Vandersteen 2CEs, and the VA Beethoven Baby ... | |
| Gallo ref 3.1 users please chime in I use a PrimaLuna Prologue 3 tube preamp with Wyred4Sound monoblocks (a similar set up to your amp). I love the combination of the tube preamp on the Gallos. It's a great deal at around $1500. The pre + W4S monoblocks comes in under $3500. | |
| What is the best power cable under $200.00 retail? I just purchased an Audio Art Cable PC for $150ish and am very pleased. Well built. Really does the job. I like it better than most of the PCs I have. | |
| Amp for desktop system? I have the Nu Force Icon set up (amp/dac, speakers, 'sub') and love it. I am really impressed with the whole set up. You would no longer need your existing DAC though. For perspective, my main listening rig is Rotel CDP as transport to a Headroom ... | |
| Moderate floorstanders for medium room When I was looking for small floorstanding speakers, I ended up with the Audio Physic Sparks. I really like the sound and feel like they have good extension on the low side for their size. They've been replaced with a new model, and I have seen a ... | |
| Moving from PSB Stratus to Synchrony ... questions I used to own PSB Stratus Bronze. I think that selling the Stratuses might be the only regret that I have in the cycle of buying and selling gear.I just auditioned the Synchrony Ones assuming that I would immediately fall in love with them but did... | |
| What amp are you using with your Gallo 3.1's? I auditioned a pair today. I am pleased to see that Dopogue has had some decent luck with a moderately powered tube amp and the Gallos. I currently run a PrimaLuna Prologue 3 & 5 and was a bit worried. I think I'd likely go down the route of t... | |
| best speaker wire for extra long runs My run was not nearly as long (19'), and it was not for my primary listening speakers; but I have had good luck with Analysis Plus Blue Oval. I'm using the cables with a Creek integrated and Audio Physic Speakers. |
