Actually, what he's telling you is it's exactly the same as discogs, because Discogs lets you sell all of those as well as DVDs. Here's an example of a DVD for one of my favorite live performances, with 2 for sale. http://www.discogs.com/Ben-Folds-and-WASO-Live-In-Perth/release/666429

My understanding is Music Hall is the central distributor for Creek in the US but they are definitely separate companies, and you're right about the appearance similarities with Creek. Just an assumption, but I wouldn't be surprised if they share a manufacturing plant or an origin story together. They were only founded two years apart (Creek '83 and Music Hall '85). And I was just reading up on Creek's history to see if it says anything, and there's a note: "In 1995 Creek’s USA distributor Music Hall ordered a miniature vinyl disc amplifier to be made in a small case. Roy Hall, Music Hall’s president, christened it the OBH-8 and from there the OBH range increased to include phono pre-amps, headphone amps, remote controlled pre-amps, plus a 24 bit D to A converter." So definitely a lot of shared history together.

I actually think that Music Hall is new, it's a Dealer Ad, and says it comes with warranty. Edit: woops just read the show sample, 3 days old. Duh.

Yeah pretty sure it's just this one, the plain Evo from like 2007/8 http://www.techradar.com/us/reviews/audio-visual/hi-fi-and-audio/amplifiers/creek-evolution-amplifier-452001/review

From the photos I think that's just the plain old Creek Evo, then there was the Evo 2, then the Evo 50a, then Evo 50a2 being the newest. I heard an Evo 2 once and wasn't overly impressed. I haven't heard the 50a, but the 50a2 sounded fantastic. I was actually looking for a good used one and it was new enough I didn't have much luck, and stumbled on the Brio in my search.

Circa Survive Juturna 10 Year Anniversary
xxsilence replied to Fowty Dollaz's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I think I spent an hour just trying to talk myself out of buying the VIP and the 3xLP. I don't need three copies of Juturna, I don't. I don't need them. I do. I need them. No, don't do it. DONT. Damn it...- 901 replies

PO Now! - Nathan Hussey (All Get Out) - Ground Me
xxsilence replied to Buffbloom's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
That makes so much more sense why he was worried about people buying it when I talked to him a few months ago...I'm so torn, I want to support Nathan, but I don't want to support ETR.- 30 replies

See it's the opposite for me, I'm more comfortable buying expensive stuff used than I am cheap stuff. Someone who can afford a $1k piece of audio equipment and taking the time to sell on an audio-exclusive website tend to take great care of their stuff, and selling because they bought something better. My experience with audiomart and audiogon are generally helpful people that are excited to see their beloved equipment go to someone else who is excited to upgrade to it, just as they once were. And think of it this way, as long as you pay with PayPal you're pretty damn protected if something is wrong.

And don't count out you may love the integrated pre enough that you could sell the Schiit like I did with my 651p to make it even more affordable.

A few to consider http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649210176-cambridge-audio-azur-840a-v2-integrated-amp/ http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649204614-creek-evolution-50a-integrated-line-amplifier-50-wpc/ http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649110844-music_hall_a153_remote_integrated_amp_with_phono_stageb/ And I prefer canuck audio Mart if the seller will ship to you; usually a better selection of UK brands and right now the exchange rate is very favorable. http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649211387-cambridge-a-640-amp-amp-t-340-tuner/ http://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649195360-audiolab-integrated-amplifier-8200a-demo-silv http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649200367-rega-brior-black-demo/ The demo Brio for $610 USD is a pretty good deal if they will ship to US, I really do love mine. Granted, I have a Rega P3 ao I'm a bit biased in the pairing I'm sure.

Does it need to be integrated since you have the Schiit or are you looking to sell that after? A bit confused
-
I had an A-S500 and the sound was pretty good for the price, but the preamp was pretty lackluster. It didn't take me long until I bought a Cambridge 651p to pair with it and made a huge improvement. How much are you looking to spend on it? I was able to find a great condition Brio-R for only $150 more than I sold my used A-S500 for, and then sold my 651p for enough that I made money stepping up to the Brio - and holy shit was it was an incredible step up. Can't speak on the A-S700 but I'd suggest keeping your eyes open for a good deal on a used integrated that's a step up (like the Rega Brio, or I almost pulled the trigger on a Cambridge 651a and Creek 50 for reasonable prices too until I finally found a Brio).

Can one of the admins fix the board clock?
xxsilence replied to marc32137's topic in Forum Tech Support
I do, but I'm going to guess the time isn't in the admin's control. Its probably just returning the time from a service/hosted web server. I'm assuming they (admins) have already been in contact with the hosting company and waiting for a response. -
Cartridge Questions

I've got a Rega Bias 2 with fairly low hours (probably around 100) if you're interested. Was looking for around $80 shipped. -

Condescending, sure. There's nothing arrogant or conceited about pointing out that you feel the need to create a new topic for every single question you have related to what amounts to your very first set up and could have 100% been localized to one topic that already exists (beginner's guide to hi-fi), or even just the first topic you created about picking a table.
