Welcome to Caesarea, Israel

Ended up trading my Ariston TT for a Lenco B55 + $ and I’m loving it!!!  I just love the simplicity of the Lenco and it sounds wonderful!

Scaling back but still wanting great sounding gear.  For me, part of the fun of this hobby is trying out different gear.  I’ve always been an audio cheapskate, bang for the buck person, buying the ...

Sold the little Yarland and picked up a very rare Onix OA-30 integrated amp.  This is now my 4th Onix unit.  Previously years ago, I’ve owned the OA-21s, OA20/2, and OA-60.

I hear you Scott.  I seem to be looking at them more than playing them.  Perhaps a fully automatic TT would yield more LP usage.  They certainly do sound much better, more real,  than my CDs or str...

I finally sold the Meridian gear after listening to it for the past 8 months.  When I switched back to the Linn, I actually preferred the power and warmth of the Meridian.  Now, looking into possib...

Always really liked your gear.  I have a Linn Majik IL and toying with the idea of pairing it with an LK85 or LK140, I hear they are both excellent.  What is your opinion?I also...

Recently sold off the ProAcs, DacMagic, & the Adcom speaker selector to pair down a bit.  I have the Meridian gear on the market now but I will truly miss the 504 tuner, it is one amazing tuner...

Yes, I’m in no rush to sell either.  I do have a second DAC too, a Cambridge Audio DacMagic 2.  I’ll sell off one of the DAC’s first.  The Meridian remote I found new and is not large at all, think...

Wow!  Beautiful view, room, and system!  I had an RM 9 many years back, should’ve never gotten rid of it.  Mine has EL34’s.  Which do you like better KT88’s or EL34’s?  How do you like the Naim Atom?

That’s a pretty wild finish on the Quad & Thorens gear!  I’ve always wanted to try a Quad amp, particularly the 303 or the 306.  I’ve had a couple FM4 tuners and have read good things about the...

The B&K stuff is great sounding gear, especially the amp.  What is your budget?  We should start there and then I can recommend what to consider.  I had two different B&K amps, the ST140 an...

I really dig your system!  I auditioned a 500C one night and nearly flipped, it was the best sounding receiver ever!  Also, like how you put the wheels on the lp rack.  Is that an expedit from Ikea...
