Recommendations for CD player

Hi folks,

Although I have been a Stereophile subscriber for MANY years, this is my 1st post to the forums (not that anyone really cares).

I am currently using an old JVZ XLZ1050TN CD player in my main rig (C-J pre & power, Ariston RD110 table, Sumiko BPS, B&W DM6 speakers, Monster & Levinson interlinks and cables). I have quite a few SACDs and was wondering what the folks here think about the Oppo 970 & 981 DVD machines. I was thinking of replacing the JVC with one of these to take advantage of the units' SACD and DVD-A capabilities.

Need help cassette to CD conversion

Hi

I am new to this forum. I have a few casettes that I'd like to put onto CD's. WHat is the easiest way to do this and more importantly is there anyone out there who would do this for me for a fee? I am almost 60 and my stereo skills are from 25 years ago so I would prefer to not have to learn how to burn a CD at this time.

Thanks so much,
Charlie

The Condor's Head

Ferdinand Mount's new novel features the Marquis de Condorcet, Thomas Jefferson, the Duke and Duchess de la Rochefoucauld, Jefferson's secretary William Short, Sally Hemings, Lafayette, and Robespierre—seldom, according to Adam Thorpe, to their credit.

How do you deal with summer heat?

Like many of you, I have a listening room that is quite small. It also, unfortunately, is in a part of the house that gets quite hot in the summer (I'm in Philadelphia, which can definitely get well into the 90s during the summer-- that's high 30s for you metric folks). My wife, in an act of mercy, got me an air conditioner for the room (at least as far as audio goes, I'm all solid state, but have two tube guitar amps in the room that can also generate a lot of heat).
