| Suggested tube amp with First Sound Deluxe? I'm using a First Sound Presence Deluxe II and recently replaced a Bryston 14B SST with a VAC Phi 110/110. The added gain in the system is phenomenal! I always felt I had to turn the volume pots up way too far on the First Sound to get the listeni... | |
| Good Repair in southern California... I'll echo Avguygeorge's warning about Scan Audio. They charged me $75 to put some handles back on a Perreaux 250P amp. A few days later when I was trying to figure out an unrelated problem I was having with the amp, a friendly Perreaux dealer (Tot... | |

| bare wire vs. spade lugs vs. banana plugs I'm no expert, but it seems to me bare wire is the first choice where it's feasible to use in one's system. Any added connector provides the opportunity to degrade signal quality. I use bare wire at the amp and a combination of bare wire and Eichm... | |
| Best Bike to ride before a good listening session It's not the bike, but the climb that counts! Any climb that puts a good burn in your legs makes the listening session all the sweeter.Kinda like, it's the music, not the gear, that's most important. | |
| Who's the best blues harp player. Once again, "the best" is an impossible question to ask. I saw Jimmy Z. perform at a small club in Los Angeles in the 80's. There were maybe twenty people in the place, and fifteen had to have been his friends. He blew the doors down. Here's a lin... | |
