I have just received my copy of the February 2009 issue of Stereophile and read Robert Deutsch's As We See It "Are You a Sharpener or a Leveler" article ! - which has been generating quite a lively discussion (as Robert points out) :-
>>> "There are some nuances and complexities that I was not able to cover in a 500-word article, but I'm satisfied that the basics are there to stimulate discussion--which at least the article appears to have done." <<<

Hi
I live in an old house where the wooden floors are uneven. The speakers in my living have plinths, but the speakers are still very tippy. What's the best way to secure these floorstanders so that they are no longer in danger of falling over.
Thanks

Having read Kal's review of the Parasound Halo P7, I'm wondering if my interpretation is correct:

Essentially the P7 is a really good $2K preamp with the added benefit of 7 channel inputs... rather than being just a very specialized product (with limited market appeal)...

(the other option that I assumed when I initially heard about the P7 was that it would just be a P3 with multi-channel inputs)

So in case all that was not clear:

If I was in the market for a $2K preamp (but didn't need multi-channel inputs) should I seriously consider the Parasound?

Nothing all that new here, except that it's not a big magazine or newspaper. Even the 2nd tier press seems to be taking a look at analogue revival. It's also interesting it takes a fairly neutral stance on the issue.

Vinyl Gets Another Spin

Hi, i am new to this forum, english is not my native language, please bear with me.

What's to be placed at the first reflection point of side walls? Absorption panel or Diffusor?

My listening room is rather small (10.5' width x 14' length x 10' height), currently bookshelves (diffusor) are placed at first reflection point of side walls, will absorption panel playing greater role in sound improvement over the bookshelves?

Thanks in advance

I am wondering if I can feed a Creek Destiny Integrated Amp with a Grace m902 DAC Pre-Amp, because the m902 IS a Pre-Amp, and the Destiny also has a Pre-Amp...
Would this cause any harm in the quality of the resulting sound?

Thanks...
