Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles?


Any Cincinnati, OH -based audiophiles on this forum? I have found only one truly high end dealer here, and they are leaning more and more towards high end home theater so they tend to be quite busye, and no longer set up truly "reference" systems one can listen to for calibration. Would love to get into touch with other fellow maniacs in the area Hard to know what else you "need" unless you can hear it and covet it in someone else's set up!

I was up there about a week ago as well. The Sashas paired with the McIntosh gear was pretty remarkable. A couple of friends have remarked that the Mac gear should not be underestimated. Also the cut of music they picked was well recorded and had some influence on me.

The Sophias with the Naim gear was another story. But in my opinion is was more the room than the gear. One could ponder if the gear is a good match but I noticed the room was exceptionally live and no system would do well in that environment.
It is me again,

I could use some help with my Thorens TD-145 table/Rega RB300 arm . . . it has a Doug Olsen designed plinth and I have hard wired Cardas tonearm cable to the rca's recently. Now I can not get it to track properly. I would like to have it professionally set-up using my Benz Ace cartridge because apperently I can not do it on my own:) I am concerned that re-wiring the arm has messed something up. It worked fine (before my upgrade!) with the stock DIN cable from Rega.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Scot, do you have a good protractor and a digital scale? I have a decent scale and a good mirror protractor and would be happy to help.

Sim Audio is releasing a new amplifier to replace the I7. The replacement will be the 700i. Also there will be a new DAC / CD Transport. It will be showing on Sim Audio Moons Website soon!
Greetings,
Sorry the short notice. I am posting to invite a few folks over for an impromptu listening session at my home this evening--6:30-7pmish. I have met some of you at a few gatherings over the last year--my name is Tim. I am on the eastern side of the city near Anderson. Eggleston Works Andra's, Spectral amplification. Camelot Uther, Genesis Digital Lens, and McIntosh front end. E-mail me at t1741@hotmail.com and maybe we can put something together. Gotta take advantage of these rare free Friday nights!
happy listening,
Tim
