I have a 10 yo pair of Senn HD600s.  I like them.  They sound fine to me.  But I'm SURE they can be improved!!  I just know it!   So here's the options I have investigated, and I'd like your opinions thereon.   1.  Buy a replacement cable.  There are 4 I've found:  One from Cardas, one...

I have owned a PPX3 (6cg7 version) for several years and have had zero problems with it.  I actually like it quite a bit and see no reason whatever to (try to) sell it.   MK

Hello everyone - I've not been around for a while (and obviously you didn't miss me!) for various reasons, but now I'm back and need your opinions. ' I currently have a Singlepower PPX3 (6cg7 version), which works fine (so far anyway), but with all the reports of problems with Singlepower...

I had the opportunity a couple of years ago to hear "Jazz at the Pawnshop" on SACD, CD, and a 15ips tape copy. The tape was vastly superior to either of the others, and sacd was marginally better that CD. With the continuing improvement in DACs and ADCs, I expect that digital will continue...

Get yourself a used EAD 2000. For the money, you absolutely cannot beat it. It uses Pioneer stable platter system, and has very low jitter. I'd avoid Sony product like the plague. All Sony units I've ever owned have a dark, slightly muddy sound.

Maybe it's your cd player. The planet is a nice enough piece, but there's a lot better ones out there. Or maybe buy yourself a good dac and use the planet as a transport. Either way, you'll probably notice a lot of improvement.

You cant go wrong with this for the price. And the JSP stuff usually sounds decent.

I recommend Maggies. Either the MMG or the MG12. Cant go wrong.

What is a reasonable price to pay for these tubes? I have one quote of $30 each from a very reputable dealer. I've seen cheaper prices on Ebay and A'gon, but have no way to judge the reputation of the sellers. Your input appreciated.

I have a pair myself which are set up in the living room for when my wife wants to have music - she doesn't just sit and listen like we audiophools do. As others have said - the more power the better. I say again - the more power the better. Let me suggest a used Bryston 3BST (or even a...

I have some money to spend, either on music (cds) or on hardware (strongly considering Cardas headphone cable for my HD600s). How do you think I should spend it - music or hardware. I'm leaning towards music. Your thoughts appreciated!

Received my PPX3 about a month or so ago, and have been enjoying it immensely. It was a pleasure to deal with Mikhail during the buying process, and I will absolutely not hesitate to recommend him and to do business with him again. His customer service and his products are both top quality.

is an EAD 2000. It is an amazing player that you will be VERY hard pressed to surpass for less than $3k. I auditioned several new cdps a while back, and the Arcam 33 came the closest to the EAD, but did not surpass it. The one cdp I really want to hear is the AR CD3 MKII ($5500). Happy hunting

My PPX3 arrived with a throw-away 18gage power cord. I replaced it last week with a Volex 17604, which is a 14ga SJT cord which costs < $6.00 (plus shipping) from Newark Electronics. The improvement is small but very noticable - improved bass and mids, and better musicial definition. A very...

this monstrosity could be any better than a pair of VTL MB450s ... driving a pair of big maggies in the right room ... oooooh mama!
