Need spindle motor replacement for Sony SCD 777ES.
KHM-230AAA is for SCD-XA777ES (drawer loading player).  For SCD-777ES (top loading player), the laser head is KHS-180A. 
Krell CAST vs. Other High End Interconnects
If you do a search in the archives, you'll find the answer is yes. CAST is Krell's proprietary technology. Check out www.krellonline.com. 
Krell KBL or KCT, CAST cable or balanced cable?
Hifimaniac, no I never heard any Transparent cables before and that is why I asked. Stevecham said there was no difference, but both you and Sd2005gt claimed otherwise. Assuming the CAST cables do make a difference, I would be interested to know w... 
Krell KBL or KCT, CAST cable or balanced cable?
From the original Krell literature (circa 2000) about CAST they stated that the characteristics of the cable would not affect the sound. In fact, this was claimed as a specific feature of CAST. At that time only Krell sold CAST cables. Later on Tr...

mark levinson model 39 cd player CODE question.
From what I read from here and other audio forums, Levinson equipment check the input voltage and if the voltage is not what it is supposed to be, they refuse to work. In your case the CD player should be set to 120V/60Hz for use in the US, but yo... 
B&W Nautilus 805 and SACD, not recommendable? why?
There is absolutely no problem partnering the N805 with SACD - I've been doing it for over a year. I think the Stereophile reviewer was probably speculating when he wrote the review in mid 99, at that time SACD was just available. 
Lovan: Stereophile recommended disappointment.
About a year ago I bought a set of Lovan Sovereign racks because they look good. Only after I took delivery I discovered that they were poorly made, the legs were out of alignment in one or two of the shelves that I could not stack them up at all.... 
Polarity with SCD-1
Quite a few of the recordings are out-of-phase anyway. The easiest thing to do is to use the phase inversion switch in your pre-amp, just toggle it and see whether you can hear a difference. I do that all the time. There is no need to change any c...

The SACD title should be 'The look of love'. I put it in double quote and it didn't come out in the post. 
CD v. SACD
Natalie and others, may I suggest to you the Hi Rez forum of www.audioasylum.com. There are tons of this kind of discussion on Sony SACD players there. 
Anybody own Shanling CD player?
Heard that the player costs less than US$1000 in the Far East.
