    Urology group stops recommending routine PSA test

    Two years ago, my annual PSA test revealed an elevated PSA. My urologist recommended a template biopsy. The biopsy indicated the presence of prostate cancer. I was treated with radiation (TOMO) followed by radioactive seed implant. All well now (I hope) and this outcome would not have...

    No interest in mirrorless cameras?

    I've been a DSLR user for well over 10 years and have been quite happy with the results and with the quality of the cameras I've used. Currently, I have a Nikon D300 and a D7000, plus some rather good lenses. Recently, however, I have felt that the bulk and weight of the cameras and lenses...

    Phono Preamp to match with Spectral Gear

    Haven't tried very many, but two that have worked very well with my Spectral are the Mark Levinson No. 25s, and the one I currently use, (and have been using for about 6 years) - the Pass X-ono. The Pass unit sounds very, very good. My Spectral pieces are a DMC-30SL and a DMA 250.

    Sheffield Labs Direct Disk LP's

    Larry, I Loved seeing your list - I just went through it and realized that I have all the ones you named, which I also bought as they were coming out. I also had the first Lincoln Mayorga album (S-9) but sold it several years ago - as I recall, it was a limited edition and wasn't all that good...

    How did you fall in love with Classical Music?

    I am a true Classical Music "nut" - but it wasn't always so . . . My parents always played classical music while I was growing up - and I did my absolute best to avoid having to listen to it. I was a "rock and roller" all the way through high school and most of college, avoiding anything...

    What is the process for getting a piece of Spectral gear serviced?

    My Spectral preamp is perfect! Unbelievably fast service and it may even sound better than it did brand new! Couldn't be happier with Spectral service or with Spectral sound! Darn nice sounding stuff! Julian

    What is the process for getting a piece of Spectral gear serviced?

    Quick turn-around is an understatement with Spectral. I shipped the preamp to Spectral in California (I'm in Georgia) on Monday, September 9th, and UPS has it on their delivery truck, out for delivery to me today - two weeks to the day - including 6 days of travel time back and forth...

    What is the process for getting a piece of Spectral gear serviced?

    Thank all of you very much. This was my first post in your forum and I was greatly impressed with the concern you expressed and the good advice you gave. I called the dealer from whom I purchased the preamp and he couldn't have been more helpful in making the arrangements for me to...

    What is the process for getting a piece of Spectral gear serviced?

    My Spectral Pre-amp needs service and I'm not sure how to go about getting it done. (DMC 30SL) Bought it new but warranty long since gone. Must I go through a dealer or contact Spectral direct. It is for sure that the Spectral Web page offers very little assistance.
