Re: Tony Tune-age System

http://i1115.photobucket.com/albums/k542/sarahk327/100_1494.jpg Hi Tony - The speakers look a little closer together than I'd expect considering the space each side. Hope you don't mind my asking, but did you use the Tune Method to position them? Hello Charlie1, I don't mind you asking questions. T...

Interesting Tony, I guessed there was no coincidence you chosen your cables and amp, nice to hear about your decisions. I have also been thinking about a really good tuner but my priorities has also been on other parts of my system. Now with Linn DS and everything maybe I get myself one of those on...

btw, what tuner do you have, is it nice? Thanks again Efraim, I wasn't sure if it looked okay in my system or not. The tuner is very "old school" and was made in the 1970's time frame. It's a Pioneer and although I've been wanting to replace it, other system priorities keep taking my money. But tha...

Thanks for sharing Tony! Your system looks really cool! I'm sure it sounds great too, you should be able to get some real Live feeling in there :-) Do you prefer your poweramp + cables to equivalent Aktiv Linn amps? And all that big powercords, have you tried them againt Linn originals? I guess Lin...

Thanks for the language lesson guys, any more info regarding M150?

Thanks to both of you for the interesting information and logical opinions. Based on the current Linn product line, they don't look back. Although there are former Linn products which still perform very well, and certainly compete with many current audio components. It will be interesting to see wha...

You can definitely rule out "the" Isobarik speaker, Tony. What's likely to surface are completely new designs, with only the Isobarik bass loading principle in common with the original. That is interesting Lejonklou, do you think the price would be fair to customers, or will they be pushing towards...
