    Show Us Your Sonys!!!

    I agree wholeheartedly Coastsider! The DA5 AND DA7 were both flagship receivers of their respective lineups(1,3, and 5/2,4, and 7). There are arguably more Nichochon GOLD capacitors in the DA5 than the DA7, but the difference in tonal quality is negligible if at ALL audible. I have coveted...

    Paradigm small bookshelf speakers

    Just acquired a set of these bad boys for $4 apiece. They have a nice non-fatiguing timbre to them. Running them with an Onkyo TX-SR606 that was also at GW for $30.

    Polk S6 loudspeakers

    Interesting. Too bad we can't give them all a side-by-side listen.

    Polk S6 loudspeakers

    It's a crazy world. Although my S8's are LONG gone... I just bought a set of NOS S6'es N.I.B. Boy, do they sound sweet.

    Pioneer PL-750

    Yes, I did (unwittingly) decide to keep the table. Found a N.O.S. stylus for it and it is currently on loan to a friend of mine.

    New Addition - Denon DCM-560

    Hello all! I have just(about 30 minutes ago), acquired myself this very DENON unit from my local orphan...err, Goodwill store! I knew nothing about this particular unit, but when I saw the copper chassis pieces - I snatched it up like a runaway pearl. What exactly is 'Alpha Processing'...

    Shure 97 v Pickering XV15 625 E

    Yes. I've read that review, and yes - I know that the 150MXLA is twice as expensive as the 440. Others will(and have) already paid MORE than twice that for a cartridge that will sound 'slightly' better in one or more respects to the 440. Does this mean that this is a 'fair' price point? That...

    Shure 97 v Pickering XV15 625 E

    I'm glad to hear that your 440 has 'settled-in' a little. I, too, have wondered if AT makes a cart with just a bit more warmth. Does anyone here own the 440MLa AND the AT150MLX? Can you compare and/or contrast the sound q. of the two carts? What about the OC9?

    Shure 97 v Pickering XV15 625 E

    The obvious(to me) next question, would be what speakers and equipment do you have. The 440 is revealing enough to expose the inequities(or perhaps more aptly, the 'presence') of the equipment further down the listening chain. Yes, my 440 is revealing,...do you sense a 'but' coming? But - my...

    Computer Question

    I don't believe that MS even supports Win98SE anymore.

    Methinks you shall love the 440. I am thoroughly impressed with mine.

    The Zen of a Shure m97xe

    I'll second this opinion. I tried to like my 97. I really did. It just never really...reached out to me. The 440 I replaced it with was a GODSEND. Unless your rig is extremely bright and forward - buy the AT. :music:

    Separates vs Integrated vs Receivers...How did you make your choices?

    I really wound up with my integrateds on a whim. I have stuck with the design because I, too, believe that tuners aren't necessary anymore, if they ever really were. I use them for background noise mostly. For critical listening, I always use a dedicated commercial free source.
