Audiophilia nerviosoThanks. Actually paid 75 cents for that map in Lenningrad in 1989. And many years later, spent $800 to get it mounted and framed, and more than I would like to think about getting that bookcase bui... posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
Audiophilia nerviosoB, cheers. We'll have to compare notes one of these days. Dave, interesting, thanks. I'd looked into similar things from the likes of Lyngdorf and others. The one conceptual nit I have to p... posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
Audiophilia nerviosoThanks. The speakers are really doing it for me, gotta admit. And the room, while comfy, is by orders of magnitude my weak link when it comes to audio. As much as I'd love some aggressive r... posted over 11 years ago | View comment | |
"Deskside" Monitors -- You're Doing it Wrong?Heh, cheers. Was definitely infatuated with it for a spell, but now I've made peace with the fact that the other room and the Parsifals sound a whole lot better. Whole lotta fun, any way you slice it. posted almost 12 years ago | View comment | |

Audiophilia nerviosoSystem edited: OK, got the Rowland gear I've always been not-so-secretly coveting. It's awfully nice. Unfortunately, this means I am now up to three extra preamplifiers and one extra amp. No way th... posted almost 18 years ago | View comment | |
Audiophilia nerviosoSystem edited: Pulled the Rogue 99 and swapped it with the Plinius. Wanted to give the tubes a break, and the Plinius is more than up to the task of equalling, and in some regards surpassing, the R... posted over 21 years ago | View comment | |
Audiophilia nerviosoLove the Rogue, but I've always had tubes in front of the Bryston, so I can't compare in that regard. (Came from a VTL TL 2.5 which, though a decent tubed pramp, was gleefully trounced by the Rogue). posted almost 22 years ago | View comment | |
