| Which amps for Monitor Audio Gold Reference 60's? X,I have MA Silver Series S10's as the mains in my home theater along with S2's as surrounds, and S-LCR center channel. Great speakers. Your 60's are awesome as well. I've listened to them many times with about 7 or 8 different amps. To my ears, t... | |
| What high-end cdp for low-end quality CD's ? Lugnut offers some good and thoughtful comments. I recently aquired an Audio Note CD 3.1x cd player that has really made a marked improvement in my system. Great detail, air, dynamics and superb bass all the while remaining smooth and rich soundin... | |
| Recommendation for a cd player-tricky question Adam,Believe it or not, you really should pick up a Toshiba 3950 or 3960. Check out the discussions over at AA. Now, I'm not sayin' it's the end all be all of cd players by any means, but dimension-wise it fits your needs and it's a pretty damned ... | |
| Upgrades to Cary 308t CD player Alexander,I just sold my Cary 308T but I tried several different tubes with it. I liked the Telefunkens and thought they were good but the early 1960's NOS Amperex 7316 were far and away the best allaround sounding tube in this player in my system. | |

| Have you ever deceived your wife-audio purchase I've undertaken at least a dozen covert operations, since entering into this hobby, that would make a Navy Seal proud. Wife "Is that a new stereo thingy?" Me "Nah honey I've had that for awhile now." or "Why yes it is dear! I traded a guy straight... | |
| What is the best Beatle Song For me, "Ticket To Ride" changed everything in pop music forever. John Lennon's lyrics depicting his girlfriend and he living together (unheard of at that time in pop music), use of phrases like "..is bringing her down yeah..", etc., Ringo's kicka... |
