So I am finally getting some mac gear after 20 years of it hanging around in the back of my mind as a 'someday' thing, and I bought a C-33 based on the love it gets here and everywhere. Anyway, I called audioclassics to see what they would recommend as far as a tune up/check out (assuming it...

.....aside from the fact that they're huge. because I'm going to look at a record collection I may buy today, and the person is selling some cornwall CWOs which I really don't need, but I have heard so many glowing reviews (best speaker I ever heard, stopped chasing the dragon when I got these...

Just got this beast from another AKer. My initial impressions are wow. And whoa. Tomorrow I drag it upstairs to try against my reference amp (Rogue Cronus Magnum ll). I'm running straight into it from the variable output on my DAC at the moment. I've plugged 3 speaker sets in so far and they've...

I've been bitten by the Sansui bug, hard. I got a 9090db, and am sending it to trnsfmr for overhaul, and bought an AU-505 to recap myself, based on his recommendation as an excellent choice for a first recap job, and the many excellent reviews here. Bone stock it sounds amazing, and I'm really...

Hey folks, new user here. I am putting together a number of "golden-age (debatable, I know) of hi-fi" systems (Sansui 9090, Pioneer sa- 9100, Fisher 500c, Thorens 125, Arriston RD11s) but I also like and have modern gear (rogue, VPI, ATC). I'm looking to add some mid-size Tannoy DCs and was...
