Panny plasma, without a doubt.

This pair of Harbeth 7ES-3’s replaced a pair of Polk Monitor 10B’s. At first the difference between the speakers was so significant that it took a while to get use to the change but now after owning...

The room looks great, if you want to keep the room to yourself for serious listening, lose the TV. I have a dedicated listening room with no TV and nobody goes in that room but me because they sure...

+1 for the RCA VT231 (6SN7) gray glass for a nice warm sound.

You could be right, it may just be me. It’s true I’m not aware of the possibilities of how a power cord can improve the sound of a stereo system. I can only call them the way I see (hear) them and...

IMHO I’ll take plasma over LED/LCD any day. I have several friends with nice calibrated LCD TV’s and the colors just wrong to me. I was watching a football game the other day on a new Samsung LED...

I’ve never heard a difference in power cords and really don’t see how it would be possible. The way I look at is as long as the power cord is no worse than the cheap Home Depot builder’s grade crap...

Polk Monitor 10’s are great sounding speakers IMHO. I replaced a pair of 10B’s with a pair of Harbeth 7ES-3’s and there are times when I really miss the 10’s. I paid ~$3K for the Harbeth’s and...

This seems to becoming more and more common. I just paid $72.00 for Neil Young’s new lp and there is a ton of grove noise. I was thinking about returning it but based on the crap that’s being...

Man, don’t send your money to China. There are plenty of tube amps manufactured in the states that can be bought used for reasonable money that are much better built.

Ups1,
I owned the Technics SL-1200MK II for many years, I bought back in the mid 70’s and always enjoyed the sound of my lp’s with the Tech. In 2006 I finally decided to upgrade to the Music Hall...

I have to agree with Obsession!

I’ve tried quite a few 6SN7’s in my Conrad Johnson CAV-50 and my favorite is a 1940’s RCA smoked/gray glass. I find this tube to be very relaxed and warm with great detail.

Nspindel,
I have not compared Magical Mystery Tour and Sargent Peppers to the original pressings but as a standalone purchase the new releases are pretty nice.

Last week I picked up copies of the remastered pressings of Magical Mystery Tour & Sgt. Peppers, I would say MMT sounds very good and SP sounds excellent. No complaints here.

Romeo,
Nice score on the PV-2. I’m very pleased with the PV-1 that I owned for years. I’m currently using the PV-1 only for the phone section and have absolutely no interest in swapping it out for...

I?m selling my beautiful pair of Polk Monitor 10B loudspeakers. I have them listed on Boston and NH Craigslist for $125.00 but would be happy to sell them to a fellow Polkie for $100.00. These...

Wow Tennman, your place looks great!

Hello Steve,
The more I listen to the Harbeth’s the more I like them. I was just about convinced I made a good move when a friend called saying he picked up a pair of the 7es3’s for a week loan...

It’s true these speakers are only worth ~$150-$175 but they sound better than used speakers that are selling for much more.

Well Mark and Steve I picked up the Harbeth 7es3’s this past Friday night. The 45W cj has no problem powering them. In regard to sound I’m still getting use to them, they have a very different...

Steve,
I’ll be picking up the Harbeth’s on Friday. Do you have any idea how they compare to the 10B’s that I’m currently using. I like the full sound and wide sound stage of the 10B’s. I hope I’m...

Well you guys talked me into it, I’m in the process of purchasing a pair of the 7es-3’s. I should have them by the weekend so I guess I'll be busy playing with speaker placement. I’m currently...

The funny thing is the folks at Ford are down playing the 5.0V V8 for 2012 and really pushing the V6 eco-boost. There were around 15 trucks on the lot and every one of them was the V6 eco-boost. ...

Hello,
I?m in the market for a new full size pick-up truck. I currently drive a 2000 Tundra 4.7L V8 and a 2012 Mustang 5.0L V8. When it comes to brand loyalty I like both Manufactures very much. ...
