| How does one get off the merry-go-round? Sell your separates and current speakers, put most of your money into even better speakers but go with a really nice integrated amp with tone controls. Choose carefully and you really may be off the merry go round while still retaining awesome sound. | |
| Tweak your AC mains for better performance, free Foster_9Do you normally leave your equipment on all the time? | |
| Is analog & vinyl anoying? Is it worht it. Sorry for this one I forgot to include this in my last post, but do you think the "wow" factor folks have when they hear analog is partly from surprise--that "old technology" can sound as good as it does?Either way there is something intangible ab... | |
| Is analog & vinyl anoying? Is it worht it. THe only experience I have with vinyl was though my parents collection when I was a kid. I was fascinated with the turntable and I think that is what really hooked me into Audio toys in general. As i grew older I never got into the, but just focus... | |
| Opinions on Audio Research LS17 & LS26 Agree Audphile1. I too replaced the stock infini's with TRT's and the preamp was far more transparent/neutral. This was a good thing in the context of my system. The LS15 with the EH6922's and new dual tube dampers from arc, plus the TRT's IMHO,ta... | |
| Personal amp evolution Updated:-Harman Kardon Citation 24 (from 1988 and it still works)-Adcom GFA 555 II (great for loud music/party system, bad with thiels and critical listening)-Muse Model 100 (one of my favorites from long ago)-NAD 314 (still have it, and love it i... | |
| Opinions on Audio Research LS17 & LS26 I found that DrHIFI review to be more geared toward comparing/contrasting the LS26 and the LS15, not the LS25MKII. I don't mean to pick apart that fine review, but really, there just isn't much substance to go on, as far as compare/contrasts to th... | |
| AR/Aragon Has anyone used this combo? hello, I ran an LS15 into an aragon 8002 for months. No pops, no problems. It was a good match. | |
| Does a component stand impact the sound Mags5000- LOL!!!Hey I was wondering the same thing. I have a tall/slim stand that was under 150. The bottom shelf is MDF, but all the other tiers are smoked safety glass. It looks great but the paranoid audio geek in me wonders what the effect of ... | |
| SB3 digital mod significant improvement? Converting the stock switcher to a linear will take care of the RF emissions.SMPS not encased in metal, and whose input/output lines not sent thru feedthru caps will generate RF at the fundamenatal and third harmonics, as it is a square wave signa... | |
| Preamp to match with Aragon 8008 i had an aragon 8002 (same design, lower power) paired with both a McCormack TLC-1, and an Audio Research LS-15. The TLC-1 was a great match with my former dna 225, but NOT with the 8002. Dry, uninvolving sound. The ARC pre breathed new life: dyna... | |
| Dynaudio D-260 Pdreher,LOL!Maybe if I should buy some brilliant pebbles and shake them really loudly to distract him too!! | |

| Dynaudio Evidence Master "I think many audiophiles have a near perfect jewel in their hand and throw it away before exercising all their options to maximize what's already there. "Amen. | |
| Dynaudio D-260 doh! That sucks man. My son is 14 months old and is drawn to the audio system, always walks over the dyns and touches the grills, looking back smiling...I try to say no no no, but the little guy thinks its a game...what to do what to do?That is on... |
