| Klyne power amp I have a Klyne series 7.3 pre and I love it. I just had a conversation with my dealer and he states Klyne is much lower profile these days, I do not know if Stan is even making preamps anymore. I do not think there will ever be a power amp. My hot... | |
| Thinking of Bireli... I have two LP's of his, his debut on blue note (this is a fantastic LP) circa 1986 maybe.. and another one later, around 1989 (now I forgot the title)... pretty sure you can pick up both LP's on ebay if you keep looking and are patient. | |
| Help w/Integrated Amp for JBL L112 Speakers If you have to replace the foams on a 12" JBL driver, best to have it done by an "authorized JBL service center". Not all replacement 'foam' products will work correctly so that the woofer maintains the original design "q". The 'rubber' solution o... | |

| Goldmund Turntable with T3 arm--what is it worth? Just FYI Benz has most orders backed up 6 months... the wait for a new Benz Ebony is something like 6 months... you may or may not have to wait that long for a re-tip.

| Audiophile 'Attitude' Albertporter that is a great story and wish I had run into more salespersons like you over the years.In my case, when I was a young twenty-something struggling graphic designer back in the early 80's, no, I could not afford the best, but IF you le... | |
| Best Live Album Ever... Robin Trower "Live"Gentle Giant "Playing the Fool"ditto on Little Feat "Columbus"ditto Santana "Lotus" where-as I love YES, generally, "YESSONGS" has to be one of the worst sounding live albums of all time... sounds like a 4-track cassette with ba... | |
| Musical Fidelity A1 experiences Hmm I had an A1 for a few years, used with a pair of Spica's... I don't recall the amp as thin or fatiguing. More like warm lower mids and gentle highs. And this was using Monster cable of all things on the speaker cables. I replaced that amp with... | |
| Mission 753 Floorstanders? Mission was a respectable product just not super high end. I would say better than "mid-fi" also... just not very visible product at the moment. Big in late 80's early 90's. | |
| Allison Six - Great but gone I am a fan of Allisons and check the EBAY listings every now and then but the Allisons many times show up in really abismal condition (somebody puts a radio shack woofer replacement in, for example, and then those delicate tweeter wire leads are b... | |
| Snapped off my cantilever I don't know what to say.. that totally sucks.. Can it be rebuilt? Can you talk to your dealer about options and maybe he can give you a trade-in deal?Just curious | |
| REL R-328... Anybody Heard One? I have the R-538 (the next one up in the line with the 12" woofer and passive radiator 12" on the bottom). This replaced the Rega Vulcan I was using.. I can tell you that the REL gives you bass that is completely unrestrained, dynamic, LOWER than ... | |
| Rega RS1 and RS3 speakers RS1 is an amazing speaker for the price... have not auditioned the RS3. RS1 works very well with Mira3, should work fine with Brio. RS1 really does need a sub however. | |
