| Cd Player shootout ; which is the best of the best I just had the Mephisto at home this week end for a brief shootout with my 861. It was only two afternoons and one night (8 - 10 hrs. in total), the Mephisto d/a section was not burned in yet since it was being used with a separate d/a due to lack... | |
| Cd Player shootout ; which is the best of the best Guys'n gals (think there are some ladies in the group), thanks very much for your feedback.

| Looking for smooth SS pre amp Check the Ayre And Placette audio. | |

| Any good and cheap CD racks? You are right Chelillingworth, it does sound crazy. Just curiosity, what do you do with the jewel cases?, liner notes?Maybe you can sell the jewel cases to Chstob. | |
| verity parsifal amp match You should try Atmasphere. They have a 160 watt I think the model is M-1. It's an OTL amp., but do'nt be fooled by it without investigating them. This guy Ralph I think is his name, has been around forever and has a cult of beleivers with very goo... | |

| Rowland Amps.....which one for me Going in the right direction .The Parasound is agood amp., but the Rowlands are great amps.Any Rowland of 200 watts or more will be ample power for your speakers, and their sweet presentation will complement very well the highly detailed nature of... | |
| Favorite composer @ favorite work? No doubt that Beethoven and Mozart are the greatest,but my preffered has to be Tchaikovsky, specially his violin concerto and his 6th.The beauty and melancholy on it's melodies and the power of their orchestration makes them unparareled in my pref... | |
