| What current China import sounds like a CJ?? Certain manufacturers DO own patents [Atma-sphere for one!]The example of post war Japan cannot be compared to China, which is still a communist country. Dissidents or undesirables get treated rather harshly [go try to evangelize in China...you'll... | |
| Is this the highest price ever paid for an LP? What is the difference between an acetate and a test pressing? | |
| What current China import sounds like a CJ?? China is an emerging economic power that still doesn't have its act together! Where will these companies be next year [warranty & repair issues]? Who is overseeing Q.C.? As Nrcy said, there is also rampant theft of intellectual property, as we... | |
| Magnepan-how much push/pull tube power needed Why are you interested in Maggies, anyway? I've had the 1.6's, and LOVED them! But I was pushing 500 wpc [Spectron Digital 1 a class D switching amp & a tube preamp] into 4 ohms.Don't waste time on the MMG's...go for the 1.6's. Unfortunately, ... | |

| Digital Cable Choice; how critical is it? Nsgarch, Toslink cable is now available with GLASS stranding. Glass Toslink made a HUGE improvement over the cheapo plastic Toslink. And this was in a relatively modest system! | |
| Duran Duran Maxi-singles Seandtaylor99, yeah...right after I open my sealed DCC white jacket test pressing of "THERE GOES RHYMIN' SIMON" :-)Tboooe, I'm pretty sure that this isn't a boot due to the packaging. Aren't all bootlegs of live concerts anyway? It appears that th... | |
| Can magnets permanently damage CRTs? As Elizabeth said, don't forget to include resistance [light bulb in a socket will work] in your home-made degausser, or the TV will be the least of your problems! | |
| Dumb question - toslink Be sure to get GLASS Toslink, not plastic. | |
