| Overall opinions on Harman Kardon I've owned a lot of HK over the years and over the past 5-10 years, the quality has started to wane. I have an 880Vxi as the guts for my spare system and I still believe the CD-491 was one of the best, if not the best, cassette decks ever...and I ... | |

| Advice on Cartridge and simple way to clean LP The Disc Doctor system works well and is about $80 for the cleaner and brushes. You'd just need to buy distilled water, toilet paper and a dish drainer. The instructions explain the procedure quite well. | |
| Vandersteen 2CE or 1C for small room? I have 2CE sigs and initially I was using them in a room 8 X 13 with the speakers along one of the short walls. It sounded good but not as good as it does now in a room that's about 13 X 16. I'd get the 1C's. | |

| Help me get back to vinyl I can third the Cambridge. Very good bang for the buck. It was my main phono stage before I bought the Sutherland Ph3d. | |

| Vandersteens and room acoustics Thank you. I truly appreciate the feedback.I do have one other option which is the main floor living room. I'm single no WAF to consider.The dimensions are about 13W X 15L X 9H, but it's not completely sealed at one end and at one corner. It has o... | |
| Upgrades for Scoutmaster, In order of improvement? I second the SDS. I got one for my Scout and it made a clear improvement. I am also using a Gingko, Cloud 10, with pretty good results. | |
| Babies and Speakers Congrats on the imminent arrival! Life changing stuff...and all for the good.Play the music as much/often as possible, albeit at lower levels, at first. As Riley says, they get used to it and in the case of my daughters, learned to sleep thru most... |
