| Your Favorate JBL's from the 70's I still have my 4311's that I bought when I was an enlisted GI in Germany for $500 in 1977. I only made $3K/month (pre tax), so that was major dough. I've been carrying them around with me since then. Steve Perry and Journey blew out a tweeter in ... | |
| Anyone heard AES/Cary Sixpac monos? Yes. Now I can say I've heard them. And I'm in love. I will never have anything other than tubes. | |
| I'm so confused.... Okay. So after a long hiatus, check in time. Oh how a few weeks can change our worlds. I got the Jolida, and am about to get an Audio Note 2.1x balanced DAC, so the Jolida will move to the back of the class as a transport only. I tossed the NAD an... | |
| Tube substitution chart on the Net? That was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. | |
| any noisefree wireless headphones? I recently test drove the Sennheiser top-o-the-line wireless. (I don't do well with model numbers.) No white noise but horrible distortion on all three pairs I tried. Too much dough for that sort of garbage IMHO. | |
| Anyone heard AES/Cary Sixpac monos? I just ordered a pair. They should be here Friday. I'll let you know next week if I remember. | |
| TT interconnects and power cords I'm not unhappy with it at all that I know of, although I'm sure that if I stick around here long enough someone will start to make me think that I am or should be. You're right, anything more than changing the mat or counterweight is not likely a... | |
| TT interconnects and power cords Thanks jfrech and Twl. And I'm not "worried" about anything; I was wondering what the groupthink is on this subject 'sall. I read about folks round these parts taking a perfectly good 5K CDP and tweaking it to the point of being unrecognizable in ... | |
| Which artists do you just not get? I know. Strange. But I find them very gimmicky and a bit too clever for what I think their level of talent can handle. Sort of like Foreigner trying to play Pink Floyd or Steely Dan. I wish I did like 'em, because it would make my social life easi... | |
| Which artists do you just not get? Great thread.I don't get:Dave MatthewsPhishLyle LovettAnd I'm a hardcore Deadhead, someone who's "supposed" to like all three of the above. Yes, the Dead I got. Big time, but not really before I saw them live (Colt Park, 1975). Someone above noted... | |
| I'm so confused.... Thank you, but I omitted some info. The boombox comment was facetious. I have just replaced a Nakamichi receiver with an NAD 370, and my well loved, and well worn 25 year old JBL 4311 studio monitors with a pair of Kef RDM 3's. The CD that I'm loo... |
