| Best path for PC audio into the big rig.. IMO, modding an Airport Extreme is a waste of money considering that all computers and computer accessories are essentially commodity items...outdated in a matter of months. | |
| Best path for PC audio into the big rig.. Macs are no longer more expensive than their PC counterparts. Check out the refurbished Macs offered on the Apple.com website. Mac laptops equipped with Airport Express wireless modems and Bluetooth are offered at 13%-28% discounts, and they are b... | |
| Beatles on vinyl -- what to look for ... Are you looking for collectible vinyl or for sonically superior vinyl? | |
| Same manufacturer for pre & amp? It's certainly a safe approach, although I believe it's possible to achieve superior results by carefully matching components from different manufacturers. For example, the ARC Ref 3 and CJ Act 2 Mk II are considered some of the best preamps aroun... | |
| Mainstream reviews-why so few? Marco, Bartokfan wrote that he will not consider any audio product that is advertised in an audio magazine that reviews equipment. Period. His blanket statement stands on its own and is fundamentally different from your example of boutique audio c... | |

| Mainstream reviews-why so few? 11-25-06: BartokfanThe mags are fed by ceratin brands ad $'s and are rewarded with glowing reviews and hype. Most of that stuff highly praised in the mags have never held up to any such claims in my experiences. If its advertized I'm not intereste... | |

| thoughts on Audion Elite 845 My thought is that some of the amps which interest you have a 30 day in-home trial period. I hope you have a similar privilege for the Audion amp so you don't have lingering questions after you've completed the purchase of this unheard component. | |

| Tube or not to tube? IMO, you should have no problem driving your Emma loudspeakers (86db/1w/1m, 8 ohm minimum) with a Prologue 2 or similar push-pull tube integrated as long as you are listening at moderate volumes not exceeding 95db. | |
| Moscode 401HR's Sonic Character Do you think this is the last amp you will ever buy?Baddabob (Threads | Answers)Ha! One never says never in this hobby. An amp change can be prompted by other circumstances...speaker change, financial considerations, audiophilia nervosa.I am very ... | |
| Tube or not to tube? Match your amp to your speakers. Do your homework. | |
| Tube or not to tube? You'll be moving in a different direction. Perhaps up. Why not purchase one of the used Prologue 2 integrateds that come up for sale and try it in your system. If you don't care for it, you'll be able to resell easily.Your speakers will be a deter... | |
| nuforce 9.02se/belles ref./ moscode 401hr? Based on your post, I believe just about any of the amps on your list would qualify to some degree. I have not heard the Belles, but the latest iteration of the 350 reference is getting glowing reviews. I own the Moscode 401HR, and have written ab... |
