| How NOT to sell an item on Audiogon I always laugh when sellers describe how great the item is that they are trying to sell. If it is that great, then why sell it? I guess I am trying to say that I would appreciate honesty from the seller on this point. Otherwise very humorous threa... | |

I have the full Oppo 105 ungrade from EVS and think that Ric Schultz did a great job.The rest of my digital system is PrimaLuna Dialogue Premium Pre, W4S amp, and Maggie 3.6's.In my system, the modded Oppo 105 beat out a $5K Esoteric in an in-home... | |
| If you could bring back one great artist that has Janis Joplin and Amy Winehouse - both had voices and material to develop and mature | |
| Subwoofer recommendation for jazz and rock Not to be offensive in any way but are you sure that the CD player and cartridge are up to the task?I found that getting these right can help with hearing what there is to hear. | |
| Help choosing an amp for Thiel 2.7s For what it is worth I am running a pair of Thiel 3.6s with a W4S ST1000, 1100 watts into 4 ohms. No problem. | |

| First Turntable Advice The other posters will not like this advice:If you are just starting do not spend a lot of money to buy the name.Find a used Technics 1200 and see if you even like vinyl. Reasonably priced,very easy to set up, and not a bad table. | |
| SACD & other Formats Musichead,Before you take the plunge, read Roger Sanders (Sanders Sound) white paper regarding CD's and SACD's. He believes that SACD is inferior to CD and explains why - it actually makes sense...?!Then buy the Oppo 105 and get it modded.Dsper | |
| Rock and roll speakers? XiekitchenNot sure about that double stack of Advents. I set up my two pair less than a month ago. They have redone woofer surrounds and updated capacitors.Just not that resolving and they sounded small. Went back to my Maggie 3.6's, which are not... | |
