| What is the best AC receptacle on the market? Ps Audio keeps getting rave reviews. | |
| Redbook Audio Aero Prima vs SACD palyer? I am sticking with my Audio Aero (Mark II) as I have a huge investment in redbook and i really don't want to clutter my sources at the great expence of my pocketbook. | |
| cd player with xlr outputs XLR is only as good as your amp. Is your amp truly balanced? I was a bit amazed to find that using my balanced Audio Aero CD player on the balanced (XLR) inputs on my McIntosh Amp made no differance as the amp is not truly balanced. | |
| hdtv antenna You are talking about two kinds of transmissions. HDTV comes in on it's own UHF wavelength. It will not pull in regular programming.The more important question has to do with digital broadcasting in your area and what kind of antenna to get. You n... | |
| Audio Aero Direct into Amps. I have responded to this question in the past. Not only do I run my Audio Aero Capitole Mark II into my McIntosh 2102 amp, but I also bi-amp it into a pair of self powered electrostatic speakers that sit in my office.It did take me a while to part... | |
| Dish satelite vs Cable quality? I have some experience with both DirectTV and Dish. I prefer the on-screen programming of Dish, although their remotes don't last very long. I am waiting for the Dish 921.For now I get my High Definition with a UHF antenna attached to my attic win... | |
| Stealth cables I picked up a pair of Stealth Silver speaker cables a while ago and I do like them very much. almost my whole system is tube and i am quite pleased.I doubt I would have spent the retail price for them, but then again, that is why we are here on au... | |
| Comments of recommendations on Xmas music i still play Phil Specter's Christmas Album at the start of my party. It is so classic and fun. i will check out the Etta James one...I say at the Monterey Blues Festival and I loved to watch/listen to her. | |
| Tube DACs I attended an Analog show in San Francisco several months ago and i did get a chance to listen to the modright Sony Cd player. I probably will get their version of a DVD player. I will stay with my Audio Aero Cd player which has recently been upgr... | |
| Tube DACs I use my Audio Aero CD player's DAC for my DVDs (two channel), Satellite and it does a great job playing CDs as well. Since it has a volumn control I find that it serves as a preamp as well. | |
| Audio Aero Dealer Advertising? Good Lord, these Audio Aero threads are beginning to sound as good as the McIntosh threads!......[I own both and would not part with either!]...... | |
| Wadia 860, Levinson & Aero Cap Direct into Amp I totally agree with Tireguy. Running the AA Cap into the amp is the way to go. I run mine through a McIntosh 2102 (tube) amp and I also biamp it into a pair of self-powered electrostats which sit in my office. The McIntosh gets the unbalanced fee... | |
| Audio Aero Dealer Advertising? I just got my Audio Aero repaired by Digital Systems which is their authorized repair shop in austin Texas. I got it to them on a Monday and, after some extensive repairs, it was on it's way back to me by Wednesday evening. It was in the shop only... | |
| McIntosh MA 6100 Preamp/Amp question? The above response is right on target. While the two units were made to worke together and might be 'matched', you can bypass either one with no ill effects. | |
| Do old Fisher tube amps compare to modern ones? I have a recently refurbished Fisher AM/FM tuner with an attached preamp that is so old that it only has mono outputs. By coincidence, I happen to be listening to it at this moment.Yes, this one, like many other very old units, do have a unique an... |
