Look on teh other side of the plug, look what kind of hookup wire it goes to, not to specail is it? and yet the piece outside, makes it all sound better? How can that be, when it terminates into standard hookup wire?

I tried to post this in the Dead Zone but it wouldn't let me!

Forever young my friend.

Who reviewed this? I know he left his email at the end of the review looking for a small speaker to meet his needs -- anyone have issue/email handy?

Jim ____? if I remember correctly. thx

I'm looking to power a couple Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 speakers. It doesn't sound like Sonic Impact's T-Amp would have enough power, but I can't seem to find anything with just a little more power. Is there anything comparable to the T-Amp, but with a bit more power? I only have 100 bucks to spend, but if there's something more expensive but popular I figure I might have some luck on eBay.

Seem like a joke of a headphone.
$30 for 100-18,000 Hz??
anybody have any other opinions about skull candy?

I've noticed that a lot of the entry-level speakers don't go down to 20Hz, but most headphones do. Does this mean that a decent pair of entry-level headphones is going to provide better audio than an entry level stereo system?

Does anybody else out there have a Cairn Fog v3? Or even a v2 if it has the same thing. Looking for impressions on the different digital filter settings. I've just had mine a couple months and haven't done any systematic listening with the different settings.
Btw, does Cairn not qualify for a Stereophile review?

thanks.

I have tried long and hard to find the Analog Productions 45rpm release of this record (AJAZ 0709) to no avail. In the time I have been looking I have not even seen it on ebay. If anyone knows of anybody sitting on a copy (or has a copy they are willing to sell) please PM me. I am willing to pay

Hi

Im reading with envy about all the NY people and the stores they are finding.

How about the same info for Chicago ?

To date I know about Music Direct, very limited and very expensive, Holm audio and probably the best selection ive found which is at Beverly Records on the South side.

All -

I'm a very reluctant audiophile, someone who quite contentedly has listened to thousands of cds on a boombox until the last few months.

Somehow - and I didn't set out to do this - I started hearing what I was missing/what didn't sound right and...once it happened, there was no way to 'unhear' the problems.

So I did what many of you have done, reading extensively - particularly at the lowest of low-end equipment.

I love Stereophile's budget column, but even there the balance is - for good reason, no doubt - on equipment in the $1000 range.
