    Turntable.fm

    Are any of you guys using this? I just got an invite tonight via Facebook and it's really fun to play with and an excellent way to find new music. I have no clue of what quality is streaming, but it's pretty decent and this for fun anyway!    Here's a review of the website since it can...

    Infinity IL50

    I found a pair of Infinity IL50s going for $100 each and I'm wondering if anybody here has any experience of knowledge of them? Apparently they retailed for around $1500 and have a built-in 10" subwoofer. I sent an email to the seller asking for more details and pictures so hopefully he'll get...

    Magnepan SMGa

    I was browsing through craigslist today and found a guy selling some sony stereo components plus a pair of Magnepans. He doesn't really specify condition or their model, but I sent him an email so hopefully he'll get back to me. He was only asking for $150 for everything so hopefully I can snag...

    Front ported speakers $200-300?

    Hey guys,   I'm looking to get new speakers (upgrade from my HK Soundsticks II) for xmas but due to fairly limited space it'd be best if they're front ported. Originally I was looking at getting A5's or Bx5a's, but those are obviously ported in the back. I'd also like them to be active since...

    Pa2v2 static

    I've had my pa2v2 for a while now and it's been working great.   Yesterday I noticed it's having static unless I put the volume to about 12 o'clock which is past comfortable listening level. I put new batteries in it (Duracell AA alkaline) which helped a little bit but the static is still...

    RBH- MC-6CT ?

    Hey,   I've found a pair of these speakers on craigslist and am wondering if they are any good? I've found some stellar reviews of them, but most reviews are about a decade old. How do these speakers hold up and is there anything in particular I should be looking for? They were originally...

    Snell J3 speakers?

    I've found some local Snell J3's for sale locally. I tried doing some research but there isn't much information out there on these. Apparently the J series was hand-made in the late 1980's before the maker died? They're listed in used, but "looks like new" condition for $100. I'm already...

    Upgrade from Soundsticks II

    Now that I've moved into my Apt, i'm looking at hopefully upgrading my speakers from Harman/Kardon Soundsticks II. The thing is, I'm limited to space and although ideally I'd like to get A5's, they're rear ported and I don't have 6in of clearance. I'm thinking about getting the A2's, but am...

    Amp + Active speakers = damage?

    I just got a Pa2v2 amp, and am wondering if i can hook them up to my H/K Soundsticks II speakers without any damage? It does noticeably increase SQ, but I don't know if it's somehow causing damage. Also when I listen to the Pa2v2 with my Sennheiser CX400's, I notice a bit of hissing and...

    best iTunes encoding

    Alright I thought this would be a much discussed topic, but I couldn't find anything helpful. What is the best way to import music from a CD onto iTunes to get the absolute best sound quality? I only need it to work on iTunes and my iPod, so compatibility or space isn't much of a problem...
