Great cinematic audiophile moment On Fox's House, one episode had House lying on his back on the floor of his office, headphones, listening to vinyl. I didnt get a look at the table/electronics. Anybody notice?John | |
Vinyl Reason Nsgarch, you bring up a very good point. In fact, I think most new "artists" these days dont make "albums" anymore, just a CD with a collection of songs on it. A properly produced album is much like a great live performance: each song is positione... | |
Best speakers circa 77-79' AR 10pi, 11's, or 12's. All great, neutral speakers. | |
Is 200 watts too much for an NHT AudioCenter One? Jays, I have been running a 2535 bridged to 200 just like yours to a NHT Super One for center channel for about 7 years now. No issues whatsoever. Enjoy the movies!John | |
ebay vs audiogon I think the biggest problem in ebay is the "power sellers". A lot of these pick the stuff up from estates or whereever, and often no nothing about high-end audio, etc. They really dont even know HOW to list the items properly. Some guy had a Pione... | |
Star Wars? LOL, I typed in "star wars changes" in Google and that was the first one that popped up! Was lucky, since that was the exact site I was looking for. | |
Star Wars? Yep, they have changed quite a bit. Here is a site I found for ya: http://www.dvdanswers.com/sw1.html | |
Upgrade question Try a Cayin TA-30 integrated tube amp. There is one here for $599 right now, I believe. I have this combo and it makes beautiful music!When you upgrade to HT, just find a 3 channel amp for center and surrounds, pick up an HT processor, or use your... | |
I'm a little stumped This is an interesting discussion. The upgrade bug can be daunting, especially when you cant find anything wrong with your current setup, but just want to try something "different".I have been blessed for almost a year with GMA Europas, driven by ... | |
What multi disc CD ?? You might find a CL5 cheap also. I picked one up NOS on ebay last spring for $375 still sealed in the box. Wonderful sound, but it lacks a digital output. | |
How to add to my 2-chanl int. amp for home theater Look for a TECHNICS SH-AC500 DD/DTS DECODER, they can be had for around $200 or less, pretty highly-rated unit when it came out. John | |
Cayin vs. Antique Sound Labs Another here with the TA-30 and Europas. Great combination. My TA-30 came from Paul, but is not modded. | |
Multi-Channel Amp questions Another thing to remember is that when you calibrate to 75db using the built-in test tone, it is a reduced level that is supposed to equate to the dolby or THX standard in normal listening. John | |
Which is better, Jolida or Cayin? Another plus for the TA-30. Before I recieved my Europas, it actually drove a pair of NHT VT-2s with no difficulty whatsoever. Truly amazing power from a 35 watt amp. And beautifully built to boot! | |
Inexpensive Integrated for GMA Europas Strong second on the Cayin. Too complicated? I havent touched mine in almost 5 months. Great match. |
