| What tonearms $1500 work well with the Linn? If the Linn does not like Regas, does that mean it also does not like Origin Live arms? I've got an Ittok LVII on my Linn and have wondered if I can improve upon on it but without spending as much as $1500. Some of the raved-upon OL arms are in th... | |
| Which Solid-State Preamp under $7,000.00 New? I'm looking forward to it. | |
| Experience with Sony SACD as transports or other? I used to use my Sony 777 as a transport with a Dodson DAC. The unit enjoys a reputation as an excellent transport, but I always felt my earlier Levinson No. 39 CDP bettered it handily. | |
| Pass Labs X-350 vs Parasound JC-1 Monoblocks? If you are looking at amps in this price range, I recommend you include an audition of the Rowland 201 monoblocks. Less power, also less money. | |
| Which artists do you just not get? Who's Copeland? | |

| Transports under $1K I've heard great things about the Audio Note CDT-2. | |
| Which Solid-State Preamp under $7,000.00 New? They don't dislike the Pass, they're just having some fun.Nrchy, I just picked up a Klyne too (really). Hasn't arrived yet, but it sounds like I will dig it. Anybody want to buy my Pass preamp? | |
| Has anyone heard the new Vandersteen Quatro? Around $6K is what I recall. | |
| What is the Bang & Olufsen ICEpower technology? When I read the recent TAS review of the exotic new Beolab speaker, I wondered how much of the sound of that speaker, which the reviewer seemed to like very much, was a result of the 2500 watts of ICEpower amplification built in. | |
| "Trickle up" theory Great post, Nrenter. Why do you think it is that you have that experience at Jeff's? And do you ever have it at your place? |
