| New 2011 Sonus Faber Speakers? Something's up. The lower priced models are on sale. I would be interested in some new, moderately priced models. Smaller floor standers ? Larger stand mounted? | |
| Do you remember your first cd? When I bought my first CD player ( Sony CDP-101 ?), the dealer gave me a copy of "Shostakovich Symphony No. 5, Op. 47, Lorin Maazel The Cleveland Orchestra. Telarc CD-80067". 30 yrs. Old and still sounds good. | |
| Is this the END of DAYS for the high end CD player I would not buy stock in a company that only made CD players. Makers of FM tuners must be reading the handwriting on the walls. The future seems to be downloads, whether it be music, movies or TV shows. My audio system made a huge leap forward whe... | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? I think the vast majority of people don't enjoy music. Before retirement, I worked for Northern California's utility company servicing gas appliances. In 30 plus years of going into homes, I noticed that very few people have any type of audio equi... | |
| Upgrade Amp or Speaker for 2 channel? After you upgrade your front end, you may discover that your other components need upgrading also. Such is life. Have fun. | |
| Upgrade Amp or Speaker for 2 channel? I have 12 year old int. amp, CDP, and speakers. The front end was upgraded ( iTunes, MacBook, asynchronous DAC ) and what an improvement. Didn't know my cd's had that much music on them. After what I've experienced, I'd start at the front end. Goo... | |
| Anyone successful in dealing with Tinnitus? I haven't been successful but have noticed that too much coffee will certainly exacerbate the problem. If I wasn't addicted, I would eleminate my coffee consumption completely. The other day, after only a couple of cups in the a.m., I thought the ... | |
| Macbook to USB to which one? I'm getting outstanding results using iTunes > MacBook > USB output > Ayre QB 9 > balanced out to my integrated amp. Very basic, with excellent results. The only sound I hear is from my speakers. | |
| How can I improve my electric power situation. Great. Thanks. | |
| How can I improve my electric power situation. Late at night and early a.m. Is best. But this is when it's very quiet, no traffic, or drunk neighbors. Sometimes, I feel disconnected from the music and feel like I can take it or leave it. May or may not be power related. I actually think it's t... | |
| How can I improve my electric power situation. Thanks for your input. I am going to check those options out, especially the Signal Cable power cord. I also noticed, or did not notice, any improvement in my system after I got the Shunyata unit (6 years ago). What advantage would the PS Audio Du... | |
| Upgrade amp. or speakers first? Thanks for everyone's input and advice. One problem that I have run into is determining how any speaker candidate will sound in my system, fed by the Ayre QB-9 in particular. It made my system much more lifelike. I'm thinking that new speakers may... | |
| Upgrade amp. or speakers first? I'm listening to everyone's suggestions and appreciate your input. I thought I would upgrade the weakest link in my system and from what I can tell, the weakest componet is the Krell KAV 300i. I may keep the N804's for awhile longer. My system ( w... | |
| Upgrade amp. or speakers first? Thanks everyone. I assumed that the weak link in my system was the amp so that's what I thought I might change first. But it seems you folks, and others that I talked to, think the speakers first. Since that is the case, perhaps I'll go for MUCH b... |
