aeber, presumably certain parts of the design (if only the external design) are patented. It's possible to patent a particular circuitry, isn't it? Your question actually makes me wonder...anybody who knows the answer to this, please post. John

Yeah, try Mozart's symphonies 40 and 41. Both are very, very good. However, I don't buy into the whole "classical music for dummies" thing. The best thing you can do is buy a primer on actual music, and actually learn how to follow along with a score as you listen to a piece of music. This...

Yet one more reply: I think it might be helpful to tell everybody that I got the amp for 250, which is a far cry from the 350 retail. At this price, it's easy to see where the money is going. After all, it must take several hours of SKILLED labor to make the amp. Not to mention fees that...

The government is generally always going to be an inaccurate judge of who the "right" person to carry a gun is. The thought of having to get the government's consent to carry a gun is (obviously) a violation of the second amendment. That being said, guns could have done quite a bit to prevent...

The Grado magic is alive and well. I had my RS-1 and was very happy with it...But just to make sure that I didn't get ripped off, I bought a used pair of HD-580s....I plugged them into my RA-1 (granted, not the best amp for them), and was suddenly very pleased I had bought the RS-1. Yeah, I...

laissez faire! This law is absurd. It's like making the average citizen go out and buy a collar that will shock them whenever they do anything illegal. It treats typical citizens like common criminals. However, I must say that freedoms go both ways. Copyright laws are very necessary, and...

Yo trabajo en un restarante mexicano y yo sabo un poquito de espanol!

I think chingon means something more along the lines of "****ing A man!" as chinga is, well....the spanish equivalent of...you know.

M Rael, I know this isn't really relevant to this thread, but I used to go to school at St. John's in Santa Fe. I miss it! A very nice place to take long drives!

I might as well say that mine is silent too with the cdp off.

yeah, I think that Jude or some other very kind audiophile (JMT?) should buy it and sell copies to everyone for 10 bucks

bump and I was curious if there is any inexpensive way to do this? I don't really want to go in the direction of another amp because I'm afraid that this would definitely downgrade the quality of the signal (unless I dished out a ton of money). Also, I'm wondering if there is a simple switch one...

Hi, My Denon 370 is in need of two outputs (at least two), and I was wondering what would happen if I used an RCA splitter on its output.....Would sound quality be noticably downgraded because of the number of extra things between my phones and the original jacks? Would it be degraded because...

My favorite is the RS-1, however, I also own the Senn HD 580 (Though I haven't had it for long). The pros: 1. they somehow add "space" to the music you listen to. However you want to describe this, as the "grado sound" or whatever. It seems like you're listening to music, not speakers...

The audio only discs are designed for component (audio) cd burners. no marketing ploy involved. However, they will work with computer burners as well. (but the computer discs won't work with the audio burners)
