| Janis Subwoofer Help You can't have it both ways - a dirt cheap price and a guarantee of what it's going to take to fix. At $200, I would buy it and take my chances, but I don't know what your finances are. If $200 is a lot of money to you, I wouldn't bother. I do bel... | |
| Paradigm Studio 60 V5 Fingernails on Chalkboard Good idea, Bob. I think what many of us find out is that we have to spend more than we thought to get sound that we really like, but it's worth the money. Good luck. | |
| Paradigm Studio 60 V5 Fingernails on Chalkboard You may not like this answer, but I think you should speak with a decent audio dealer who can help you address these issues. They can help you isolate the cause of your problems with the system. Here, you'll only get well-meaning guesses. If you w... | |
| Meridian 808.3 Why, are you seriously considering a $20K CD player? If you are, I'm sure there are several dealers who will be happy to give you all the particulars. | |
| Please simplify Disc Doctor Cleaner w/ VPI 16.5 Sounds like you are stuck in record cleaning hell. I suggest you buy a large bottle of Nitty Gritty Pure 2 and give the record a thorough one-step cleaning and vacuum. I think it works great on records without any unusual problems, which may requi... | |
| Monitors for a small room - please help The Opera Callas Monitors are great small-room, low-volume speakers. There's a pair up for sale now. No connection with the seller. | |
| Modwright Ultimate Sony xa5400 sacd -Review I cannot imagine an "outcry" for a $1500 CD player sufficient to influence a company as big as Sony. I'm not saying it's not true, but it's difficult to believe that many people are demanding a CD player that the average person would consider insa... | |
| EXPLAIN HD SACDs to me. Probably means HDCD. | |
| Should Equalizers make a comeback? Any types of "tone controls" have been eschewed since the early 80's, when I first got involved. Personally, I think the bass contour on the Leben amps is nice to balance out a bass-shy or bass-heavy tune. There are a lot of bad recordings out the... | |
| Experiences with mass loading stands As you have found out, the stand can have a profound effect on the sound. Remember that you dialed in the speakers on the old stand for best results and you probably placed the new ones in the exact same place. You have to start over with placemen... | |
| Adding Esoteric G-03X Clock to X03-SE cd player Fafafion - I don't question that you hear what your hear, but I was wondering how you could possibly know what MOST Esoteric users in Japan were purchasing and how they match their systems? Just curious. | |
| suggestions on small footprint phono stages I think the Pro-ject Tube Box II SE sounds better than the GCPH I owned for a short while. MM/MC and sufficient loading options for the non-fanatic. Subsonic filter too, if you need it. I replaced the stock tubes with Black Sable Tung Sol and it s... | |
| MUSE Erato II - Anyone using this player? Maybe Roy Gregory has the only one. | |
| turntable recommendations for a vinyl newbie... I agree with T-Bone in that a cheap tt with thrift shop records may end up a big waste of time, but I still maintain that a new MMF-5 (There's one up from Underwood) at a good price, and a bunch of new records from Better Records or Acoustic sound... | |
| turntable recommendations for a vinyl newbie... If you know little about vinyl, and I'm assuming you don't want to (or can't) employ the services of a good dealer (which you should) I suggest buying a Music Hall MMF5 and about 10 new records from Acoustic Sounds and see how you like dealing wit... |
