Hello everyone,
I ma quite new to the world of HIFI and i got some problem to choose the best HIFI components.
I got SOAVO 1 pianoblack loudspeakers and i wonder which amp/cd player i may add to them?
As it's quite difficult to listen Luxman products (L505u + D38u...are they good?) where i am (France), i think now about these 2 brands:
- Marantz KI pearl Amp + KI Cd player (not possible to listen this amp :-( )
- Denon pma 2010 + dcd 2010.

Most laughable tweak so far

Mapleshade catalogue arrived today, they are promoting a custom designed isolation stand for your laptop to enable your MP3's etc to sound better !!!

Apparently memory must suffer vibration, those pesky electrons dont like being shaken up.

When will the hifi world stop be so naive, you can have a cheap laptop with a $3 power supply but you need a $300 stand for better sound quality !!!

Today I tried to record an lp with Audacity and burn it to a cd (16/44) just for the fun of it. I chose The Rolling Stones: Between the Buttons.

Considering the record is from 1967 the procedure ended quite well. Most of it actually sounds much better than I expected. I did a little equalizing and a few declickings, other than that I did nothing.

Now do we have any Stones fans out there who doesn't have "Between the Buttons" already?

The debate over which audio component is most important in determining the quality of a system's sound is one that has been with us for decades. Recently, it came up in a conversation I had during a visit to a Manhattan high-end shop, when I was told about a discussion on the topic by <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/interviews/1101ivor">Ivor Tiefenbrun</A> (of Linn) and <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/interviews/690wil">David Wilson</A> (of Wilson Audio Specialties). You don't have to be a seasoned audiophile to predict their respective positions, but when I was pressed to take a stand, I paused.
