| I am really disappointed with the hip-hop enthusiasts on Audiogon Schubert, very interesting observation. Never thought of it that way, bias always enter into the picture when dealing with humans. Taters certainly has a chip on his shoulder about Rap and Hip Hop, this is his third denigrating post in the last ... | |
| Kimber Kable Select Rodman99999, these cables are 10 years old, doubt he will sell for 70% of retail. I would suspect closer to 50% of retail. You can try for 70%, but don't expect that much. These cables are pretty common on the used market. | |
| Kimber Kable Select Emojo, as has been alluded to, there are lots of scams in the audio world as there are in the rest of the world. There are many counterfeit products, Kimber included. Since the items were purchased in an audio store I would recommend you take th... | |
| Glen Frey has passed ... Oblgny, the documentary is called "History of the Eagles" and was on Showtime, but is now available on multiple platforms. Highly recommended if you have any interest in the Eagles. | |
| ps audio pwd mkii preamp break in time? There really isn't a separate preamp section, the signal that you output to a separate preamp is the same signal when run direct. The PWD controls volume in the digital domain, not the analog domain like a preamp does. When using a separate pream... | |
| Does it ever bother you It always helps when they give a point of reference so you can relate to what they say, but it doesn't "bother" me. Some people are technical oriented some are music oriented. If they get excited about technical aspects so be it. It does "bothe... | |
| If you won the power ball tomorrow night would you 1. For sure, yup, I just won $800M and all I need is that new uber interconnect to make my system sing. I'll be happy forever .... | |
| Someone had mentioned Christopher Hansen on a thread I read the other day Dweller, the Hanson in Dayton, OH is spelled differently. As for Christopher Hansen, I did as geoffkait suggested, did a Google search and without digging too deep appears he is doing high end home theater installs for the rich and famous, i.e., ... | |
| Largest audiophile club in the world with over 1500 members Mofimadness, no that's not it, that one has over 2000 members. The one Taters refers to has over 1500 members. I think it's the Pagglesham one ... The audiophile philosopher strikes again! | |
| When rap came out 30 years ago I thought it was just a fad Taters .... Our very own audiophile philosopher. You stay awake nights thinking up all these questions you ask? Will you reach audio enlightenment? I wish you the best of luck. As for Rap, you know, it's kind of like Jazz. Would it last? To ... | |
| Would you buy from a firm that has a policy about not accepting phone calls Absolutely, as long as I can communicate I'm Ok with it. Actually I prefer e-mail, I can think about what I want to say and put it as clearly as possible. Phone calls are great, but many high end companies are small and don't have the staff (or ... | |
| VPI Traveler and Lyra Delos Bifwynne, no worries on the compatibility of Lyra cartridges on VPI unipivot arms. VPI has tried and recommended the Delos, Kleos, and Atlas cartridges (along with many other cartridges). Take a look at the VPI Forum on their website. The list ... | |
| I'm considering used Vandersteen Quatro Jetson, 90 dB is not very loud for peaks, but if that is an average loudness then it is fairly loud. Given the type of music you mentioned, and assuming 90 dB was the highest level measured, then you don't listen too loud. That's good for your h... | |
| I'm considering used Vandersteen Quatro The Quatro's are wonderful speakers, but I'm not familiar with the Prima Luna Classic. I did a quick search and now assume it is an integrated amp with 35 - 40 WPC (depending on tubes used), correct? If so it is probably not a good match. First... | |
| Why do some dealers Taters, you are such a deep thinker .... |
