    Sonus Faber Suprema Flagship Loudspeaker $750,000

    The car industry is the same situation and there is no dangerous implication for it. Super rich people can buy one million dollar cars easily and others not so rich can choose from superb relatively inexpensive cars that are far better than inexpensive cars used to be. Cars in general are all...

    Analog Audio Design TP-1000

    My experience with top customized pro machines is no noticeable wear even playing a tape over 60-70 times or more. I was surprised myself. I use SM900 by RTM in France, which has been flawless for me.

    Are John Dunleavy's Theories on Speaker Design Still Relevant?

    Agreed fully. I had Dunleavy SC IVa"s in my studio.

    Nice. Have you compared it with the Ampex 102? What is the model of your Crown? Thanks.

    New Repro cards!

    New Repro cards!

    Jeff, have you heard the Sony 5002/3 series? I find them superb. I had both ATR and the Sony and each was excellent in different ways. ATR more analog and rich and the Sony more detailed without being scientific sounding. But my Sony's have been gone through top to bottom and customized so I...

    John DeVore on the Grey Market and OCD Mikey

    I have the same question as Hopkins. If we missed something please quote the part we missed with apologies ahead of time. The whole point of all this despite the many pages of comments is was an unintended customer sold a pair of speakers meant as an accommodation pair from Devore which ended...

    Thank you on the isolators. What is WA X1v3? I couldn't find it on internet. Wilson speakers? Thanks.

    REL vs JL Audio subs

    For whatever it is worth, it took me at least 6 months to get my two REL 212SX's integrated with my 96db sensitive Horning Eufrodites. I found that line level is better than the speaker level for my set up. John Hunter of REL said that for people with sensitive speakers the line level is...
