An Audiophile is Anyone Who Loves Audio Regardless of Monetary Status. Agree? When I was selling my JBL 640's I gave my cousin a demonstration. We listened to PF's DSOTM on CD (I forget which version). Listening, I thought that this was the best sound I had heard from that venerable recording! I told my cousin so and said "... | |
An Audiophile is Anyone Who Loves Audio Regardless of Monetary Status. Agree? And I gave him a subscription to TAS for a year. But I didn't renew it because I felt that Stereophile was instead a better value for the average listener! | |
An Audiophile is Anyone Who Loves Audio Regardless of Monetary Status. Agree? My cousin has the same system in use since the mid - 70's. Mac C28 and 2105 with JBL 100's. He is happy! But is he an audioph*le? I did get him a Stereophile subscription! | |
1980s Onkyo Turn Table Get the new Grado Black Prestige cartridge! $79 - or so from Needle Doctor! It will sound a lot better than that cheap Audio Technica or whatever is on the tonearm now! | |
Sherwood Pre amp S 6020cp ...Amp Hook up question Use either pair! | |
scratchy sound from tweeter You can find a pair of ADS 200 speakers available for not much money! Same size and configuration as the Radio Shacks. But much better build quality! USA - built! | |
scratchy sound from tweeter One of the 8 inch woofers in my Snell E's now does this all the time! So I had to buy a replacement pair from SEAS! Careful with that volume control! | |
scratchy sound from tweeter Voice coils are rubbing against the magnets! Turn down the volume before the damage is permanent! | |
Audio Research Dac 2 Vs the Audio Research Dac 7 Save your cash and get a Topping D50 DAC ($350). Compared to the over-priced ARC gear, the French Chef says "No diffawrance!" | |
An Audiophile is Anyone Who Loves Audio Regardless of Monetary Status. Agree? The "troo" audioph*les are thrifty and always shop secondhand first! Of which there are an abundance of riches cast off from the gullible and neurotic! | |
Would SR Galileo UEF Analog Power Cords sound noticeably worse on CD Player than Digital? Buy a Pangea ($99) from AA. Will work and sound the same as the "high-priced spread"! | |
Refurbishing 1973 Large Advent speaker Rubber surrounds are certainly. preferable to foam (ugh!). | |
Refurbishing 1973 Large Advent speaker I replaced the woofers in my pair of the Small Advents with woofers taken from a pair of KLH's (rubber surrounds) that I bought cheap from GoodWill. Worked perfectly fine! So you could do the same! A beat-up pair of AR's or KLH's can yield a nice ... | |
Name Your Top 5 Most Musical Dynamic Sounding Tonearms of All time? I have a Gray Research 208 awaiting installation on my Bogen Lenco B61. A real dinosaur of a tonearm that had widespread radio station use. It will be a good match with my several Denon 103 variants! | |
Best speakers for Cary CAD-300se Forget the AudioNote E. Way too expensive ($5000). Get the Klipsch Heresy III for less than $2K. A much better match for a SET 300B amp! Sensitivity of 99 db! I bought a pair of older Heresy's (Mk.1) to use with my SET 45 and 2A3 amps. The E's don... |
