| Classical Music for Aficionados Well, when the composer calls for hemidemisemiquavers, it's nice to have a pianist who can actually execute them both correctly and artistically. | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Hamelin's splendid new disc of Listz/Thalberg opera transcriptions and fantasies. Listen to those fingers fly! | |
| KEF Reference 5 aftermarket plinths, base, or feet options? https://soundocity.com/product-category/outriggers/ Something from the offerings shown here? | |
| Suggestions for New CD Player Send it back. Surely you're still within the return window.Burn-in, cables, etc. can make incremental improvements, but they won't change your fundamental reaction to the unit. | |
| What would you do? I want to increase soundstage and curb a slight tendency for high end harshness.Acoustic treatment of the room would specifically address both of those desiderata. And I know that the room plays a big role but I can't make changes there.What do... | |
| Smart TV digital output to Powered Speakers Did you post over here too: AVS ForumYou might get more answers over there. | |

| Gave up my SET----looking for moderate to higher power replacement options The best-sound class D right now (pending a few anticipated future releases) are likely going to be the AGD, already mentioned above, and the LKV Veros. Both of which are well outside your price range.SS: along with Pass and Accuphase, I'd add Su... | |

| High end Class D amps? Only in the case of the Voyager, the field it's playing on is shaped like a dodecagon. | |
| question for Luxman L-590AX owners @imhififan This is fascinating. So is a toroidal core like a spool of one continuous sheet wrapped around itself, or is it built up of an accretion of concentric circular sheets, each one slightly larger in diameter than the previous? | |
| Iso-Puck Question Oreas work best when not at the upper limit specified by Isoacoustics. I imagine the same applies to Iso-pucks. Using just 3 (rather than 4 or certainly 4) may also be advantageous. |
