| Are there any tube amps that don't give off any--- How lucky you are that you can listen to any music from even a solid state system on warm days without having to turn on the air conditioning. I'd like to move to the North Pole at this point just so I can listen to music from June to October with... | |
| REL T/9i or S5 Thanks for all your responses. I'll be getting something in the lower end of the S series. | |
| Lemons are an actual thing in high-end audio I just came off of a very very bitter experience with a lemon(used.) Not only did I spend a lot of money getting it repaired a few times but the biggest problem was the sound it made was so magical and compelling I couldn’t believe these sounds we... | |
| Cool it! Do you enjoy your music even with a window air conditioner going? Or do all of you have central air? | |
| VTL S-200 Tube recommendations I thought the VTL was a wonderful amp but I bought as a demo. When I called them with a question Bea was extremely unpleasant. It got to the point where I refused to call them. I've bought other product as demos or used where the company was extre... | |
| Why go out??? My favorite movie experiences were the great NY midtown palaces in the 70s. They occasionally showed 70mm prints with 6 channel stereo which pinned you to the back wall of the theater. And there was the time Radio City showed a gorgeous Technicolo... | |
| Best Sounding Bruckner Recordings How is the audience noise on the Furtwangler Music and Arts? At times they all seem to be suffering from influenza. | |
| VPI's new "Vanquish" Ultra High-End turntable is a STUNNER! What an odd thing to say. Do super expensive cars give car collectors a bad name? Do super expensive breeds give show pet owners a bad name? My superscout master sounds spectacular with a great cartridge. I happen to find the bling attractive, the... | |
| Can you put a Krell in an apartment? In terms of size and weight why would you even want this in a small apartment especially if at some point you want to change things around?I honestly wish I had the space for something like this but you might see it turn into a major headache phys... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados For pure joy on Vanguard the Eugene List The World of Louis Moreau Gottschalk along with Grand Tarantelle with Nibley and A Night in the Tropics with Abravanal is a must have. Less weighty but it will make you very happy. | |
| Most annoying song, period. Blowing in the WindFar too many catholic folk masses as a boy. Michael Row Your Boat Ashore and Kumbaya get special mentions. | |
| Which stereo amp to try under $30k Well I loved the 350.8 but it was too large for my room. Quite the beast. Very big and heavy. No way will it go into a rack. Or at least I can't imagine it would. Needs space and runs very hot. If I had a large spacious living room I would have ke... | |
| Favorite cover? Carpenters' Ticket to Ride (as a kid I hated them. What can I say? Tastes change. Rarely, but they do.)Surprised nobody has mentioned this along with Superstar. 5th Dimension's Never My Love. That was quite an unexpected wow. | |
| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? Great thread. I too love the guy satisfyingly putting his finger on it claiming it as a Samsung and then his zinger of an exit line. It was too good to be offended by.Mine a friend listening to an obc which we had listened to since we were kids an... | |
| High End is Dead? 'If this statement hits too close to home then you might consider getting up out of your specially crafted chair that is both comfortable and yet not so absorptive as to damage the soundstage of that 1958 recording bootlegged out of that acoustica... |
