I live in Toronto, but it's been a while since I involved myself with the purchase of new equipment. Does anybody have any reccommendations for high-end stereo places in and around the city? Thanks in advance, Greg. -- Greg Grainger grainger(at)vex.net 'What a world of gammon and spinach it is, though, ain't it?' ...

I am renovating my apartment and would like to hire a pro to make some sound tests for the best configuration/position of speakers. Can anyone recommend someone in the NY City area? What is this profession called? My basic dilemma is this: my living room is large (20'x 30', irregularly shaped with 16' high ceilings, wood floors, a 26' high massive brick...

Hello, I'm Andrea from Italy. I've a C39 Audio/Video Control Center (serial number HF2844) with the glass panel broken. Could you indicate me where I could find it new or "second hand" or refurbished? Sorry for the disturb and many thanks. Bye

I just got a Marantz PM-94. I have a question about the speaker connections. The binding posts are unusual, sort of like an enclosed version of the first generation Adcom GFA-555 posts. There's a plastic collar around the screw post, which from what I can see has a hole drilled through it. You back out the nut (which doesn't back out far enough...

I found a great thread on this group which produced an informative article about the use of 20 gsm silver wire for making your own high- quality audio interconnects. Without getting into the debate over coathangers versus high-end audio leads, can anyone tell me why this article stresses using soft silver wire and says don't use Sterling? Here in Australia,...

I would appreciate your experience! My Revox B251 "gave up" and I would like to buy NAD pre- and power- amplifier. My requirements: - Musical sound picture and details (i have also a 3020i and this amplifier sounds really nice) - can drive critical speakers (I have Dynaudio 3-ways system); I am also thinking one day to buy Dynaudio Confidence 5 -...

Getting into home theater can be a pretty bewildering experience, with all the techonology, and changes, occurring now. Let's narrow it down to just the audio portion, and just from Blu-Ray. There are basically 3 "high end" audio formats - DTS-MA and TrueHD (lossless compressed), and PCM (uncompressed). And there are basically 2 ways to get the compressed...

First off, I hope that this subject fits in this category, it's the closest one I could find. I know this question is a little weird, but my reason for asking is in regards to recording to and listening to slightly stretched/wrinkled/warped tapes. I have alot of tapes I got used with good music on them (stuff you can't find on CD anywhere else), but the...

Hello, I have been using an AR-XA for almost 40 years, but only now am I trying to make it sound a little better short of putting on an expensive tonearm. Any one that knows these tables knows the tonearm is a weak link. The headshells are infamous for thread failures. If I can get it to work and I think I can others have used universal headshells but...

My sub (a Velodyne F-1800RII), includes line-level inputs and outputs which permit high-frequency signals to be filtered out and sent through the line-level outputs to the power amp, essentially removing the bass from the signal fed to the power amp and providing bi-amplification. There is a high-pass filter switch which can be set to either 80Hz or 100Hz...
