i just moved from boston up to hanover, nh.  anybody in the area?

had to be the most awful thing i've seen . . . and i'm not even a texans fan!

as so many people have noted, diana krall's live in paris is a phenomenal album. i am particularly blown away by track 11, "a case of you." if you haven't heard this song -- you must. close your eyes and be transported . . . what other diana songs "do it" for you?

all, i just bought a used stax srm-007t that came with the stock 6fq7s. they are unbranded but are made in the u.s.a. the plates are grey. any ideas? pics: tubes: http://www.flickr.com/photos/14278493@N07/1581961663 top of tubes in dark...

there's an auction for a srm-t1 on e-bay and the price is almost up to the point where it's about the same as a new sr-404/srm-006tii combo from pricejapan. is the srm-t1 worth that kind of money? isn't the srm-006tii supposed to be based on the srm-t1?

i'm heading down the path to the stax world and as a stax newby. bottomline is that i want to get the best stax system that i can without going into the price point for the sr-007s. there are used srm-1mkiis out there that seem to be pretty good and relatively inexpensive -- are those a...

i'm thinking about buying a used srm-1mkii to get me into the world of stax. what do you guys think about this amp? is it a good starting place, or should i dive into say a srm-727s? would the sr-404s be a good match with the srm-1mkii? or should i save some money and get the 303s...

i've been considering buying a stax unit from these guys, but don't know anything about them. what has your experience been? thanks!

i always have thought the er4 bass was decent -- went sorta low but that weakness was offset by the great mid and highs and the overall clarity. guess what? i've got huge ear holes!! i've always used the grey foamies that came with them and wondered if they were big enough and whether i...

ordered an lc-1 ic at noon on tuesday and got it today (two days). that's good service! the cable looks well made, but you can't call it glamorous. i'll look forward to hearing how it sounds.

i'm currently using a blue dragon v2 and like it -- the build quality is fantastic. i'm interested in checking out a silver cable, specificially either a headphile senn v2 or a moon audio silver dragon v2. the headphile's advantage is price -- it is significantly cheaper than the sd...

i heard about her in a review in sterephile several years ago. i got her first two albums "kim richey" and "bittersweet" shortly there after and find them to be some of the best albums in my collection. i find the honesty of the music and the way she sings to be very addictive. unfortunately...

i can't wait to read the reviews! http://www.bose.com/controller?event...ntcmp=USB06001

All, I ran across some Westinghouse 5687s. I'm wondering who actually made them -- my understanding is that Westinghouse didn't make tubes. The tubes have a halo getter. Initial reaction is that they are fast, articulate, and have good base. They're being used with RCA 6cg7s. Any...

in case you haven't seen it, stereophile has a review of the 701s in their latest issue. i haven't read the whole review in detail, but basically wes loved them! another nice plug for the headphone/amp world!

well, i now know what everyone means -- the hd600s are wonderful for classical and jazz, but asleep at the wheel for anything that wants to boogie. what cables will really make these babies wake up? i want the soundstage and depth of the hd600s, but put a little er4s treble and clarity into...

all, i love head-fi. as a music lover that's been out of the loop for a few years, it great to get back into the gear. you guys are off to a great start. based on recommendations here, i've spent almost $700 so far (sr-71, hd600, cable), but need your advice (to spend more). i feel good...

hi all -- head-fi noob here. first thanks for all the great info on the site. thanks to the advice i've gotten here and conversations with todd (ttvj) and rsa, i've got a sr-71 and senn 600 on the way to me. needless to say, i'm psyched. next step is to get a killer home amp. i'm thinking...
