Donald Fagen-Sunken Condos Rebbi: I agree with your opinion on the quality of this recording. Fagen/Dan recordings are usually better than this. I'm wondering if anyone has heard the Japanese pressing? . . .	73
Anyone recommend a neutral tube amp? Thanks for all the responses thusfar. Tim, you're right to be concerned about the 87 db on the speakers. I've found some amps, such as the Mac 275, to be underpowered with them. I . . .	52
Glass v.s. Plastic Toslink I'm in need of a reasonably priced toslink to run audio from my Macbook to DAC. Mrderrick, you recommend Sys Concept 1300 over the Silfex. This is the only reference I have found . . .	40
Isolation for speakers on spikes Thanks for the responses so far. Warrenh, I think I may try the audiopoints. We have the same amp, right, the YBA Passion? You think the audiopoints will lend the same benefit as . . .	21
Monitors for Sim integrated Sfar: I listened to ProAcs today (not with my amp) and I agree they sound great. The Tablette (?) was amazing but I feel that it would get fatiguing after a while; the high end . . .	17
Musical Fidelity V-Link with Rega DAC REVIEW Hello, I am now embarking on conversion to a computer-based system. Like many, I am going to use a Mac (specifically an older Macbook, circa 2007, but eventually will put it all on. . .	14
Conrad Johnson Premier 12, how powerful? The Opera Callas are 8 ohm. I'm afraid I don't know about the impedance curve. My room is fairly small and I listen mostly at low volumes, but I've found that low volume listening . . .	12
Buying used equipment in Japan Thanks, Hakuchosan, this is helpful advice. I am worried about availability and also price. So I suppose it is easy to find dealers in the major cities, but even used equipment is . . .	11
Are Classe Amps Good for B&W? Thanks for the advice. I'm curious to try the Classe but I think I will have to wait for a local dealer to get one used, so that I can return it if I feel it's not right	10
Best integrated for B&W 704 and Rega Apollo Thanks for the responses thusfar. Artizen, I don't think I'm too reassured by what you say. Within a couple of hours you went from being in love to being almost ready to sell? . . .	9
Benefits of MF V-Link with a Mac-based system? Thanks guys, I think I understand better now. I assumed initially that the V-Link was mostly being used by guys with no optical port on their computers, but then I saw posts from . . .	8
Plinius 9100 and 9200? For that matter, what about the 8100, 8200, and 8200 mkII? Are these all just successive versions with steady improvements? Are the differences substantial	8
Favorite international pressings Yes, I mean Redbooks, and I listen to all types of music. I have several from Harmonia Mundi, that's a great example. I even have two CDs from the mid-90s--a Marley CD and a Stone . . .	7
Speakers for Dialogue 2 Thanks for the info. This assures me I should stick to my resolution not to buy any more audio components without hearing them first	7
Krell KAV 400xi, peak current Thanks for the formula, Audiopath. I'm looking for a new integrated for my B&W 704 speakers. They seem to want a lot of power	7

Anyone heard Opera Callas Mini? Thanks Thorman. Actually I have all my info wrong. The speaker I heard was the new Opera Mezza. And the speaker I'm interested in is the Opera Callas, not the mini, but the larger . . .	6
Cary XCiter DAC vs Rega DAC My CDP is an Arcam DV79. It sounds very good, but I used to keep both this and a Rega Saturn, so I know the difference in sound. I was thinking about getting another Saturn, but . . .	5
Cambridge Audio 540R / B&W 704 I had been to the CA website but hadn't noticed the forum. Thanks for the tip, I'll try it. Yes, my dealer will let me take one home, so that will be the ultimate test. But there's. . .	5
Rotel RB 1070 bridged/ RB 1090 My speakers are B&W 704. If I traded out of Rotel, which amp would you recommend in the $1500-2000 range	4
