Hi
With DUP gone we can have a reasonable debate.
What would you rate as the single most iconic peice of hifi ? Something that you aspire to through your life. The obvious ones that jump out for me :
1 - Mcintosh amps
2 - Quad electrostatic speakers
Of course the granddaddy of them all and im thinking the landslide winner, the LP12.
Any other thoughts ?

Just found the site- wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. I'm looking to replace the tweeter in one of my old Advent 3-ways, (floor model, 1985ish, do not know model or stlye) Is it possible to find original speakers? Or do I look to find a new speaker that will fit in the hole? Thanks
OK, putting on flame suit...and...
I was dorking around with some gear and forgot where I put my cable box. So, in a fit of expediency, I went to OSH and grabbed a pair of Phillips M62776 interconnects, and, dang...
...they sound pretty sweet.
They strike me along a similar vein as a PS 1, with no real sins of commission, so to speak, and they are only 12 dineros.
I am shocked.
We have decided to ban DUP from the forums indefinitely. This was not an easy decision. It follows two previous bans -- the first was a one-month penalty, while the second lasted three months. While we admire DUP's passion, all too often his contributions resulted in negative distractions, the deterioration of threads, and the loss of members.
Whether DUP's viewpoints were right or wrong is an irrelevant consideration. The fact remains that his contributions here have been harmful to the growth of our forum. For that reason alone, we have banned him.
been a devotee for about 5 years now.The great sound and ease of use of these products is great. The designer, Michal, is an audiophile at heart and provides Chesky with gear, among others.. very smart guy. I was a former benchmark and grace user.. no more.
mytek really wiped the floor with those two.. they sound strident and lackluster in comparison. mytek costs less too..
there are some high res comparison files on the website..

A great piece of balanced writing I think still holds up well some 15 years later.
Thanks JA.
Any idea what Mr. Zeugin is up to these days?
