Hi everybody,

Recorded in 1958 on Bach's organ in Germany. See scanned link below for more details. Actually recorded on Somerset label LP; P-/SF-9200 - Bach: The Majesty of the Lunenberg Organ - Professor Michael Schneider [1958].

Bach: The Majesty of the Luneberg Organ; 4 track 7.5 IPS Audio Spectrum AST-303

Once again JA brings out the reality of a basically poor amplifier with a price tag of $10K!! A damping factor of 12 !!! That must be a loose wooly ill defined 1940' sounding turd. Come on, and of course teh subjective reviewer gives it his blessing how wonderful it sounds. How on earth can such a design be nuetral in reproduction? Freq resspone shows a very limited range this is 2007 lotsa amps are down to DC -500kHz..I know mine are. With slew rates of 800V/uS to make things sound ALIVE. The $10 K unit sounds like one over privced under performer.

Everyone, please feel free to post replies to this,but I'm mainly looking for a response from Kal Rubinson.
I'm looking to put together a "decent" setup if possible. I own a few DVD-Audio discs & I like the Dolby Digital mixes, so I'd like to hear the "real" thing.
To start, I've decided to stick with my 5 NHT Super Zeros & NHT Subwoofer for now. Yes, I do sometimes listen to organ music! I want to get the SACD Kal recommended recently.
Anyway,I would like to avoid another A/V receiver if possible. I already have a Kenwood for Dvd watching.

Nothing beats the sound of live music. But then again, I often wish I was listening to music in the comfort of my home while seated in the cramped, nose-bleed section of Carnegie Hall, for instance, between an 80 something who unknowingly toys with her medicated-candy wrappers and a bored Wall Street gentleman who has to leaf through the program notes--in search of corporate sponsor listings--throughout the entire performance.

I HAVE A REFRENCE 50 THERE IS SO MANY SETTING ON IT HOW DO I GET THE MOST OUT OF IT?

WHAT IS PIONEER NEW FLAGSHIP RECEIVER AND HAS IT BEEN RELEASED?
