| Speakers that accurately reproduce a drumset Unsound has it right. It must begin with the recording. I was using a system test CD a while ago and it included a bit on percussion. I had no idea my system could sound so good!Oh, Kef Referance speakers. | |
| Words From the Wise Don't let signal degradation get in the way of buying a simple switch box; plugging/unplugging just to get the tuner 'on line' is really quite silly. | |
| Sam loves the McIntosh MCD205. Do You? I wanted to build my whole system around a MC 2102 tube amp and I really liked the idea of using McIntosh for everything. It is designed to work best with the one remote.I just couldn't talk myself into it. I almost bought Tannoy speakers, but fin... | |
| A serious blow to Canadian audiophiles, must read I caught a bit of this on PBS and the commentary had to do with such regulation being more in the scope of the Provinces. Sorry, it was only the last of the piece. But if this is true, wouldn't you folks be better off, all things considered, than ... | |

Years ago a tree gel onto a power pole and took out the transformer which destroyed the services along a full city block.The owner of the tree had her isurance company pay for all of the repairs. | |

| Tube Amps and young children - avoiding burns etc. You can have it both ways. Small children can only reach 'so far'; barriers and distance can work. You can have it your way: just be smart and deal with it. | |
| digital versus analog cables for CD players Try Acoustic Zen Digital cables. I own two pair and I am very happy. | |
| On Wall Speakers? First, Slipknot has a point.I can't find the link, but there was just a really great posting on Audiogon referring to wall mounted Magneplanars. The model is MGMC1. Great price and you get a 30-day trial. If these things sound as good as other mag... | |
| I am looking for a processor that has... Are you sure you want to spend your money going in this direction? Personally, I would get a DVD player that has component outputs, as well as S-video and then gradually upgrade each component thereafter.Why service the S-video when you can start ... | |
| What will you be playing to celebrate? "....a contingent that consistently hates the U.S."ouch. Hey, at least we have not yet accused THIS President of murdering a cabinet member...... | |
| Audio Aero Puck Fix. Interesting. Perhaps I should look closer. Still, if it ain't broke, leave it alone.Especially with the AA which is one product bought on emotion. I love it and I wouldn't exchange it....moody as it sometimes gets. |
