| Integrating video streaming into a dedicated audiophile system I think converting excellent Stereo to a limited video (without surround) is a viable choice. Especially if you already have a 5.1 elsewhere. Very often I change to 2 channel, cut out my center and surrrounds, it sounds better. This AVR has a fu... | |
| Need a new integrated, what say you? I certainly like the sound of my Cayin A88T, but not enough power for you, 22 wpc triode; 45 wpc ultra-linear mikeyb’s suggestion seems a good one with enough power. Cayin build quality is excellent, take the bottom off, beautiful. This review ... | |
| Goodbye Everyone asvjerry I'm gonna whine to revive this every 6 months, it seems it is good for me and many. supposed to meet heart surgeon today. all tests done, many questions, they rely on verbal trust, I want a few valve recipients to play cards with, get t... | |
| Need a new integrated, what say you? nice speakers! low efficiency 87-88 and 6 ohm dipping to 3 ohm, that is a combo that needs the right choice. Your friend's unit, 125 wpc at 4 ohms seems to fit. Will he let you hear it with your speakers? Nothing I own is right for that, and pas... | |

| Turntable choice for mono records I took advice here, got a basic Grado Mono Cartridge, elliptical stylus on aluminum cantilever. Definitely better than playing mono lp with stereo cart, even if preamp has mono mode. Next, I searched for an at33 mono body with broken cantilever. ... | |
| Goodbye Everyone mikelavigne chuckt as always, it’s the lack of acknowledgement from OP. a simple ’thanks for your response’ would be nice. who raised these people? | |
| Goodbye Everyone asvjerry you are a worn out hoot! makes me feel like a teenager. I was assuming I could get off a few meds. Nope, they are gonna add more, all heart meds are for life. oh well. | |

| Blown tweeters I, and my son at every party he had, blew the tweeters of my JSE Infinite Slope Model II's. His friends would have the wrong input, turn the volume up, up, nothing, then OH, change the input: crack, sizzle, pop JSE used the highly respected Dynau... | |

| Looking for a great phono pre-amp in the $1000 or less range Return Option! Of everything in the chain, I think Phono Stages are the most difficult to find one you love. You simply cannot rely on specs; reviews; advice; other than to make a hopeful choice and put it in your system. I recommend you only bu... | |
| Goodbye Everyone asvjerry "'diet' if you must" is good advice. I'm going into the hospital today, testing, see if I qualify for a clinical trial of a new Heart Mitral Valve (and it's less invasive insertion). If yes, keep me and do it. No, then it goes down to ... |
