| Tok20000 is going pro "hard disk based digital playback system." This is a great idea, glad to hear it's coming soon. | |
| How does one get off the merry-go-round? Do you get more excited about a new CD/LP or component? If the components are more interesting than the music it is hard to get off the upgrade wagon. I was looking through the Music Direct Catalog which sells everything from Creek to exotic stuff... | |
| Can we have an "Ask Sean" catagory? Thanks Sean. Maybe Sterophile could hire you as a columnist? I can just imagine the contrast with Art Dudley. | |
| Are CD's made the same way? Thanks for the information | |
| Can we have an "Ask Sean" catagory? I appreciate Sean's common sense look at audio. It cuts through a lot of the hype of most reviews. Makes a lot of manufacturers look stupid but hey, that's half the fun (I'm kidding). Can I really ask questions here?Well I've been wondering for ov... | |

| No Wires..... Ever Wifey Dearest Audio Riddle Naim recommends a Wiremold L10320 9 outlet power strip. No switches, fuses, etc. It has a grey aluminum case. I bought one from Electrical Wholesalers, a national chain, for about $35.00. It worked good but I wanted a surge protector so got a Trip... | |

| speaker suggestions for modest arcam alpha system Avguygeorge here's adding to the minisystem speaker confusion:ELF 1.5For $125 hard to go wrong. They sound natural. | |

| speaker suggestions for modest arcam alpha system Ascend Acoustics CBM-170 are $328 direct from Ascend. This includes shipping. They would cost $1,000+ if sold at a dealer and in a nice wood veneer. The sound is neither low-end or modest. Worthy competition to the B&W speakers. Their only fau... | |
| Best Integrated for under $1000 Exertfluffer, The A300 retailed for $1,500 new. Sells used at A-gon for $1,000. Sound is tubelike. May have more bass than the cr series as it seems the choke may restrict current flow as well as cleaning it up. | |
| Rotel vs Musical Fidelity Just get a used Musical Fidelity A300 150 wpc integrated for $1,000 and forget the whole pre amp issue. Another option is the Adcom GFP-750 for ~$750.00 used. I would not buy the Rotel pre, maybe M-F pre. | |
| Amp On or Off? I use a Tripp-Lite surge protector. This, I hope, reduces in-rush current damage when amp is first turned on. For class A/B avoiding in-rush current seems to be the main reason to leave on all the time. | |
| Best Used Solid State Amp for less than $5000? Musical Fidelity Nu-Vista 300. |
