| McIntosh Double Box? I have heard in the past that getting remuneration from shipper such as UPS and FedEx can be like pulling teeth, and that USPS, unbelievably, is better. Since you insure your parcel for a stated amount, is this a big deal or not? Let's say you a... | |
| I think I have found the End Game Amp Actually, it was 2004. Those years add up! :) | |
| I think I have found the End Game Amp I built a pair of 2A3 amps back in the early 90's. Absolutely lovely. And a pair of Dick Olsher's Basszilla Diamonds with the Lowther DX4 drivers to match up with them. Moving and she restraints led me to part with them, but that was quite the ... | |
| Changing audio beliefs Once I got into this hobby I fell for imaging, clarity, and black background. The first setup I had that I really loved was around Martin Logan CLS's (the original ones). I knew bass was lacking but the other things overrode that. Through the de... | |
| Any opinions on Record Doctor VI? I owned the Record Doctor version that was motorized and cleaned both sides simultaneously. It was wonderful and compact. After about a year I headed into the bathroom where it was sequestered and found it dead as a doornail. Now it's discontin... | |
| When to give up CDs and TT? After several moves, during which my records and CD's traveled in boxes, I ended up in a place with a perfect stereo room. I then started sequentially totally redoing my entire system into a nice little Nirvanaland. Then, having to decide what to ... | |
| Lost Last Classix Rock Station @oberoniaomnia There you go. Lots of stuff out there, although, of course, you have to listen to what they give you, which ends up sending me to Discogs late at night! Pretty funny. I lack self control! | |
| Lost Last Classix Rock Station Broadcast is, like it or not, for the here and now. We old guys need to suck it up. I remember hearing Buffalo Springield's "Bluebird" in, maybe 1967, on my VW's 6volt from JC Whiney's AM only radio and going nuts. Then we had the 60-70's realm... | |
| Looking To Upgrade to a new CD Transport @fred60 Solved my problem with my Jay's Audio player. So I'm just gonna ship back the PerfectWave when it comes without opening it (it's a black one) as I don't have enuf SACD's to justify the extra bucks. These things are in short supply, so ... | |
| Looking To Upgrade to a new CD Transport Has anyone an opinion on the PS Audio PerfectWave SACD player? I ordered a factory-certified unit on a whim at a big discount but now am reconsidering before it shows up. | |
| Best concert you've attended Stephen Stills & Manassas, Mississippi River Festival, Edwardsville Illinois 1974. Richard Thompson band, Rockefellers, Houston 1982 | |
| Looking To Upgrade to a new CD Transport Thanks! Sounds like you sent the whole unit back, not the remote (or both?). | |
| Looking To Upgrade to a new CD Transport I've had the Jays Audio CDT2 MK3 for a year and a half. It sounds great, i2s into a Denefrips Athena. I even got a spare CD unit just in case. However, recently i'm having problems with (it seems) the remote. Putting in new batteries did't chang... | |
| What blues are you listening to today? You guys. Just finished with Little Walter. You want real blues? Tune into Cap’n Pete’s Blues Cruise on WEVL Memphis 89.9 (wevl.org) Friday nights 9-12. Saying Zep is the blues is an interesting idea. Page would laugh his ass off at you. Mr Hender... | |
| Pure Audio Project Quartet 15 I thought they were in California. |
