| any good turntables with repeat function A lot of great information generated here. Thanks for the continuing help. | |
| any good turntables with repeat function Winegasman, a very helpful response My knees and I are grateful. The old B & O 8000 I once owned would also lift at the end of play; the repeat function did not have to be used. My VPI Mark II has no such function. Thanks much. | |
| any good turntables with repeat function Thanks to all. I do have some valuable vinyl and thanks to your cautions, they will not be used with a repeat function. My aging knees increasingly rebel against getting up at inopportune times to lift the table arm.I should probably start a new t... | |
| Sony SCD-1 vs. SCD-777ES I have owned the SCD 777Es for about two years and enjoy it immensely. The dealer, who sold both units (though the SCD 1 was not on the shelves at the moment) said that he could tell no difference in listening to the units. | |
| Any AudiogoNers Winston Cup fans? Have been auto race fan since teenager (longer ago than any other member, am pretty sure) and at age 65 participated in the Richard Petty Racing Experience at Charlotte - 80 laps over 1.5 days. My top speed - 154 mph - acceptable for a geezer. Ear... | |
| What's your profession? Age? I am a retired professor and university executive, though I continue with some professional work in my field. My age will be in the end of the audiophile age distribution i.e., 69. Am blessed with a good ear, a good system accumulated and traded o... | |
| Anyone had experince with J J Electronics? I know nothing about the preamp. My purchase at J/J was a Sony dual cassette deck - a commodity item. The entire transaction was flawless and the salesperson was helpful. Best of luck. | |
| what speaker stands for B&W Matrix Series 2? Just noted that I omitted the 801 model number from the original query. And, thanks for the Sound Anchor lead. I have located their web page at soundanchors.com. It is very informative and they do have the stands for the 801 II. From there, the re... | |
| Nak 480 - worth buying? I owned the Nak 480 a number of years, but the transport eventually gave out. That was with only modest use for about ten to tweleve years. My inclination is to think you can do as well or better with other used pieces from A'gon or maybe even a n... | |
| Is there an easy to use vcr? It is as I feared. The present generation of designers cannot achieve an easy-to-use vcr. They probably also work on gps systems for cars and may have had something to do with Windows 98. The 10 year old Sony, formerly owned by Rphsvc, was apparen... | |
| Review: Sony SC-D777es CD Player I have this unit as well and the SACD sound is excellent. There may well be better-sounding SACD units, but the difference would probably be marginal. The only other CD player to which I have compared the 777 CD portion is an old Rotel which the S... | |
| Any opinions on NAD quality? My C 740 is being used in a home office environment. It is interesting that the so-called executive or ministereo systems easily sell for $300. Fortunately, I had old Genesis I speakers in my old and unused category and, at least for now, that mak... | |
| Any opinions on NAD quality? The positive comments are welcome news. My information came from a former dealer who is no longer selling the equipment, so it may not have been objective. Over the years, comments on NAD sound quality have been consistently very good. My need was... | |
| Best Male Singers of the 20th Century It's tough to add value to 161 responses, but Mel Torme should receive another vote. "Best" is a tough one, but he clearly stays on the list of the top five. His early "scat" phrasing (and later), his styling, and his actual song-writing were just... | |
| Review: NAD 3020 Receiver I hope this comment is not too offline, but I have been searching for some time for a used NAD receiver with a remote. Its place would be in my study, it on one end of the room and me in the other. So-called minisystems or executive stereos are no... |
