| Looking for advise and recommendations on a nice record cleaner. Like most things, the answer is largely dependent upon your budget. I had an old record doctor, which was generally effective if you worked at it enough, but very inconvenient. I was unwilling to play the price for a.Degrittet Which would have bee... | |
| Qualities Of An End-game System End game is theoretically mythical-nothing is perfect-but practically when you reach the point where your system is satisfying and enjoyable and you have spent the all the resources you are willing to spend to make further improvements. I'm reason... | |
| Qobuz vs. Tidal I have both and prefer Qobuz because I think the SQ is a bit better and it offers more high res cuts. SQ is subjective and I find the difference slight but noticeable. I think the Tidal interface is better and maybe it has a greater selection I... | |
| My end game speaks. to answer the question you asked, I would prefer the magico. Both your choices are obviously excellent, high-quality speakers. It’s very subjective and it’s too bad you can’t hear them for yourself given the investment. As others have said, I ... | |
| Crackle and hiss on some albums I find that a thorough washing before first playing the record, and then another washing after the first play is useful. With that said, you are never going to eliminate all of the pops and crackles, it’s part of the media. Worth it in my opinion,... | |
| Best power cord for Audioquest Niagara 1200 I would not spend dragon money for the 1200. If you’re spending that kind of money, you’d be better off to upgrade to the 3000 as indicated by others the thunder or one of the other less expensive Audio quest products would make a lot of sense for... | |

| Magico A5 vs SF Amati vs Raidho D3 - Help me decide! I have had a chance to hear the SF and magico speakers, auditioning them against each other, and I think you would see a significant step up with either of the choices that you inquired about. I haven’t heard the Raidho, So can’t make a meaningful... | |
| Upgrade My Turntable - How Much Do I Need to Spend? You have some good choices in mind. i've owned the Rega P6 and Riga turntables are really good. I have a clear audio DC performance and clear Audio makes tables in your price range that are excellent. As Others have said, I would encourage you to... | |
| Do You Buy Speakers Without Hearing Them? I have a found a way to listen to speakers for my main system before making a purchase. I think speakers are the most important component, so I have insisted on hearing speakers before I buy and comparing choices. I wouldn't say I will always do t... | |

| Mid-Fi, Hi-Fi or.....? there are a couple of inherent problems with those terms. First, they are subjective. There is not a standard definition, and what sounds really good to you may not do it for me. Second, the terms are relative. Someone who owns $150,000 system may... | |
| Would you buy a pair of speakers by just looking at the measured freq. response? No, that's just hoping the speakers actually are to your liking and hope is not a plan | |
| McIntosh dealer discount ? I generally receive 10-20% off msrp from my dealer. It's not something I'm strident about but I usually get something I've been a loyal customer and have made a number of purchases which I'm sure makes a difference. No reason not to ask | |
