Does anyone still use the green pen?
CD Stoplight became popular in 1990 or 91 or there about from a write up in Stereophile by Robert Harley. I was just starting out as an audiophile and I got caught up in it back then, imagining that I heard a slight difference, but stopped not long after when I realized that I was just...- Velocitymj

Four months with the Constellation Inspiration Preamp and Stereo amp
I'm using TARA Labs 0.8 balanced between the Inspiration and my 334 as well as TARA Labs RSC Air Evolution (XLR) between my Bryston and the Inspiration. It's the tuner and the Peachtree that I'm using unbalanced cables. That's where my issue is. (I also have an Oppo 95 Blue Ray as well as...- Velocitymj

Four months with the Constellation Inspiration Preamp and Stereo amp
I have to admit that I don't want to lose the preamp I'm just annoyed over the sound from the unbalanced inputs. Considering the quality of the sound coming through on the Inspiration preamp compared to what it cost, perhaps I shouldn't have complained. The Inspiration preamp interfaces...- Velocitymj

Four months with the Constellation Inspiration Preamp and Stereo amp
I just bought the Inspiration Preamp 1.0 and I agree with everything that you've written about the components, except on the unbalanced RCA inputs on the preamp. Constellation doesn't say that the unbalanced inputs won't sound good, they just say that the "balanced inputs will sound better"...- Velocitymj

XLR interconnect shootout of 14 cables over 6 weeks
Excellent review, but you didn't you didn't write anything about the synergistic research atmosphere level 3 I'm curious to know what your impression of those are/were. I'm considering their element line of interconnects at the moment. Thank you.- Velocitymj

T.H.E. Show Report- 2013
It seems that there are camps who love the Wilson's and those who don't like them I was hoping to hear some great sound from the Wilson's at THE Show, because the private systems I've heard (Watt Puppies) have never impressed me. Unfortunately, I didn't hear one room where I thought that the...- Velocitymj

Constellation Audio - just play flat and loud or Make Music? Just Expensive orGood?
I heard Constellation's gear driving the Magico S1 (in a somewhat small room) at Newport on Saturday and Sunday. That was one of the 3 or 4 best sounding systems I heard there . The Magico Q7 system, driven by VAC, while impressive to look at and with a spatial quality to the sound stage to...- Velocitymj

Have We Seen the Last of Harry Pearson?
MEP, while I have issues with my own health insurance provider, you'll have to forgive me for not grasping the connection between your post and Harry Pearson's stated reason for departing TAS. :)- Velocitymj

Have We Seen the Last of Harry Pearson?
No we haven't seen the last of HP. And he left TAS for the very thing that many, many audiophiles have suspected as taking place with audiophile magazines: the emphasis on ad revenue over honest content. While at times I found him to be arrogant and somewhat condescending in his zeal for the...- Velocitymj
