Roland I don't read any of the Hi-Fi periodicals. I was once a member of the Audio Engineering Society and read their journals. I did once subscribe to STUDIO SOUND an English publication. And MIX comes to my mailbox everymonth. Most of my opinion was developed by simply listening to CDs and LPs. I have two systems, a Phillips/Magnavox CD-DVD player, A Marshall Leach Discreet wide bandwidth solid state preamplifier, three LUXMAN MB-3045 power amps designed by Tim de Paravacini operating in Triode Class A mode and three Gillum G-3 (high efficiency horn) speakers arranged a three-some right, left, and derived center. The other system is another Magnavox CD player, A AUdio Research SP-6 preamp, Dyna MK111 power amps and two Thiel speakers. I have a 16" Fairchild 750 turntable with four tone arms: A Gray Viscous damped, a B&O with a SP12 cartridge, a Grado tone arm with a Grado Gold czartidge and a Shure SME with a Ortofon MC30 moving coil.
The best sounding CD I own is a Capital reissue of Kay Starr "UP A LAZY RIVER". The absolutely worse sounding recording is reissue of Henry Mancini's "COMBO" . They really did a hatchet job on this one.
