    Why i'm not an audiophile

    I love music, all genres, live or prerecorded, makes no difference to me, but I do not have the ear or experience to really be able to talk about warmth, sound stage and all those terms that are thrown around.

I noticed when I first got it before installation of the belt, the motor was indeed functional. I can spin everything with my finger, so I don't think the belt is too tight...

    Diagnosing Nakamichi PA-7 Amplifier - Recap?

    I picked up a couple of Nak PA-7 STASIS amplifiers a while back along with a CA-5 and a CA-5II preamp. I put them in my main system one-at-a-time to see what each component would do to the sound. Well, the good news is that the first PA-7 does make sound. Although, I was initially impressed...
