    record clamps/weights......

    I have the Shun Mook--compared it side by side with the Dalby--the Dalby is slightly superior but the Mook is oh so close;). Tried a few others--Harmonix plus those supplied with Shindo ,Simon Yorke,and earlier Oracle. I always make point of noting the clamps /etc in show demos -I still feel...

    Indeed-ha!--when I was helping my dear friend Peter Merrick (RIP)at Unilet New Malden early 80's we had a whole wall of speakers with a comparator--in struts Ivor T with a remove all and Linn only or else demand:mad:.

    Ha ! Thanks for reminding me how old and creaky I am :eek: !--glad I enjoyed those halcyon days--ah the bliss! Yes sorta like Analog I relished the Air Cooled Models -don't know about the latest versions much. I had 911 T Yellow basic no mods chrome steel wheels--had an oil "smell " in the...

    Italian artistry and world class sound...the world of Sonus Faber

    I presume you mean the Franco era GH's--I agree with your comments and the way in which they convey well above their weight. Such a revealing speaker and never phases one irrespective of sonics presented .One of the few transducers that were not meant to do everything "right" merely the...

    Sonus Faber Guarneri Series Or Similar Speakers vs Audio Note In Small Room???

    Umm!-- yes well wisdom of thought there Lagonda :rolleyes: but being of independent means and getting long in the tooth -partaking even the slightest attempt to slide move, a 109 Ib two part object, in my case is a definite no no--appreciate the write tho;). As I fly Solo my listening area is...

    Anthony Cordesman RIP

    Sad indeed I also perused with vigour his words and stories via the Absolute Sound in its Halycon days!--evidently and he was touted as a supremely learned gentleman and revered offical in the Halls of power. I recall his utterance during the Moon landing commentary mentioning the Hasselbad...

    A Head's Up To Next Installment Of Masters And Makers

    Cool very Interesting and innovative for Steinway--sorta reminds me of the Pianola we had in our house in the 50's--looking at those ghost keys performing on playback:oops: BruceD

    Playback Designs MPD-8

    Yes I recall Frank the CD Transport "Guru" at Theta was the first to implement his "Opti-Gue"(sic)! for application to the Optical lead connectors before insertion. I've still got some somewhere :rolleyes: I think. BruceD

    Sonus Faber Guarneri Series Or Similar Speakers vs Audio Note In Small Room???

    In this WBF where heads roll on misinformation :oops: ha! allow me -- firstly I own the SFGHomages and I feel I can honestly state I have NOT heard any Audio Note speaker that will surpass the SFGH's in any domestic setting--quantifying that observation re Bass output -the ANote's have lower...

    Sonus Faber Suprema Flagship Loudspeaker $750,000

    In my opinion 90% of their post Franco Serblin creations "missed the mark!" The attempt shown of a SOTA Transducer sorta buries itself in the mud of a current McIntosh plethora shown. Once mighty brands--that sadly lost the plot:( YVMV BruceD

    Porsche 911/718 Factory tour in Zuffenhausen & Museum visit

    Wow indeed What great experience! Kudos thank you for posting! Ah memories:rolleyes: I did similar tour in 71 --certainly not as spectacular like todays I'd imagine!-but was accorded virtually Carte Blanche in the factory/production facilities, having been introduced to Ferry Porsche...
