In Reply to: Are you "HAPPY" with your system? Or "UNHAPPY" and need some fixin' soon? posted by Elizabeth on August 19, 2012 at 20:52:46:
Though there are times I wish I hadn't sold my reel to reel tape deck, Nakamichi cassette deck, Music Hall mmf-5 turntable, LPs and tapes but I needed the money and didn't fancy living on the street.
Here is my system before I sold my RTRs, cassettes and LPs.
I still have the Yamaha SACD/DVD-Audio player, Sanyo TV, AMC tubed preamp and Adcom power amp. However I listen mostly to 24 bit computer music files nowadays mostly from HDTracks and other high resolution digital sites. However my favorite 24/96 AIFF computer music files are from audiophile LPs, especially Direct Discs. I seem to enjoy the high resolution digital versions better but there are times I miss my favorite prerecorded 7½ IPS reels and prerecorded audiophile cassettes. I don't miss LPs as I always hated the fussiness of playing them, in this case I really enjoy the 24 bit music files with about 90% of the fantastic sound of LPs and none of the hassle.
