  1. Vanatoo.....best powered speaker I ever heard. Heard them at Axpona.....kept looking around the room for a subwoofer...... Totally blew me away......My buddy liked them so much.....He ordered a pair that day.......Still has them....... Not truely wireless.....though. Truley wireless... Paradigm PW George

    Sansui Beauty

    It is nice......but more trouble then it's worth......I had a chance to buy one about 2 years ago..... Passed.....Bought a Au 9900/Tu 9900 combo instead......and still had enough left over to have the Au 9900 restored... Beautiful craftsmanship....as in any older Sansui George
  5. If your budget is tight.......you can't beat accessories4less George
  6. Where about.....thinking of selling a pair..... George
  7. Congratulations......did the same thing a little over a year ago......You will be fine George
  8. Oppo has been in that business for years....While traveling to Asia I noticed some of the local people had Oppo phones ....back in 2012 George
  9. My Forte's really wake up using one of my vintage Sansui's George
  10. Wow.....I actually prefer my old cartridges to my new......I run a Signet 7 and a Signet 5. I prefer either of them to my Ortofon. I buy my replacement styli from here. https://www.musonic.co.uk George
  11. I sold a couple sets of reference speakers.....rf 3 and rf 35 series Pretty sure you will like them.....price.....the guy is not giving them away.....but it's a good 5.1system for $ 650.00 George
  12. One word YES....... Two words HELL YES...... All kidding aside They look to be in good physical shape. Price is fair....to.....good George
  13. Shu..... Great find......Reasonable price.....I also use BJCs.....Going to check these out George
  14. I figured the CW III's would be too much.......You think the same way I do .....I wanted to upgrade my Forte's to Forte III's but didn't want to spend the 3 grand. What everybody here is saying is any one of your choices will out perform the JBL's......I am not ripping the JBL's....great speaker is a smaller room ....sitting close to them. If the price is right ......you will always be able to resell and make most of your money back....if not all it. George
  15. I own a few pairs of Chorus II's...... I would have to agree with Westcoastdrums...... due to your room size...Don't get me wrong I love my Chorus II's .....but I can't imagine how they would be in a room that size.....To be honest I would have to say Cornwall II's to get the most out of your room...the Sansui 919 should be a nice source with either......The best would be a set of Cornwall III's...because of the changes made to them .....I heard they are a lot like a set of Chorus II's on steroids. George
  16. Yes....I have a very old Windows pc in my basement (see my profile)......All music/ movies are stored on my windows 7 server Then I run Intel NUCs at both my systems...........You can probably just run server and use Cat5/ Cat6 to your receiver. Possibly off of a network switch.......If you are thinking of doing this wirelessly.....can be done but audio dropout's are common.... There might be better ways to do this.....but this is what works for me George
  17. I found that Windows 10 really sucks.....for networking....often times network pc's are missing from the network list....been trying different fixed ....work arounds.......best thing that worked was ....run server with Windows 7 ....all other pc's can be Windows 10...if they don't see each other.....it doesn't matter .....they always see the Windows 7 server....I never have any media pc go into hibernate....it causes all sorts of strange things...... FLAC files.....JRiver....been using it for a while.....like it for audio. I use Kodi for video George
  18. It seems like an interesting project...... keep us up to date of progress...I like things that make sound and are cheap. Are those the ones on Ebay for $14 bucks each? George
