Receiver suggestions Magnavox speakers
I recently obtained (for nearly nothing) some old 3-foot-tall magnavox speakers. I'm not sure what model they are and I need to get a relatively cheap receiver/amplifier for them. These speakers are for parties and non-critical listening situations. Ideally a receiver would be nice, so that I...- anishbenji

Sending in my hd580 for repair..
My hd580 has developed a loose connection somewhere along the cable to the right side ear-piece. I know its in the cable and/or connector because even if I switch them around (i.e. right connector in the left driver etc) I still get the loose connection on the right side (side with the red...- anishbenji

I need advice for a friend
My friend found the music system I mentioned earlier for under $200 & has decided to go for that. Anyway, Nezer, thanks for your help. I will probably find that thread useful later if I decide to get speakers for my system before leaving college. Anish- anishbenji

I need advice for a friend
Actually it IS for a friend . I listen to MPC's almost exclusively now.The only mp3 player I'd like to get is an Ipod. I would never buy a music system with that as a primary feature. I'd much rather listen to my 333es and keep my compressed music on my harddisk. Anyway... I did the search &...- anishbenji

I need advice for a friend
My firend wants to buy a home mp3/cd music system. To give you an idea of the quality & price range in mind, the one he chose was the RCA rs2538 . Can anyone suggest a better system in a similar price range (~$250). Thanks Anish- anishbenji

Power supply for the porta corda
I need a linear power supply for the porta corda. I don't have transport right now, and the nearest Radio shack is too far too walk to it. What is the part number of the power supply, so that I can order it from the Radio shack website.... or is there a better place to get one from? Anish- anishbenji

How did everyone get into high-end personal sound? (headphones)
My story started in February, last year. I was into mpegplus (now called musepack), a high quality compressed music format and listening to them through a pair of very cheap Philips headphones. I was in India at the time & was coming to the US for my graduate school in August. I knew there was...- anishbenji

Where can I get the sony scd-333es
I can get the 333es for $525 + shipping, second hand. I think I'll go for it. Does anyone have any suggestions. Is any other unit (222/333/555/9000) available for a similar price? Anish- anishbenji

Where can I get the sony scd-333es
Thanks for all your replies. Good Guys don't seem to carry the 333es any more. I called several of the stores and got the same reply. Is there any comparison between the 222 & the 333. Beside the build quality and the multi-channel support, are there any differences between them? Does anyone...- anishbenji
