| My first Tube Amplifier Great to see the number of Dynaco initiates, perhaps not the original kit builders, but certainly among the best second generation advocates. I started with a kit-built Eico in the early 60's, then a Heathkit, then upgraded to Dyna, PAS-3x and ST-... | |
| How to connect a subwoofer into a mono block system So now, after discussions with REL tech support, and the very useful contributions above, I'm left with 2 options:1. Use separate subs, one per mono block. This would mean from a financial and size standpoint using smaller subs. I'll need to stay ... | |
| How to connect a subwoofer into a mono block system Thanks to you both for the guidance. What didn't you like about the REL sub, rhljazz? Which one did you have? My room is small, with very limited space for anything large, but I believe the ProAcs would benefit from bass support. | |
| Cannot find perfect sound Personally, I'd do something that seems anathema on this group: get sophisticated professional audiometric testing. Wayyyy cheaper than $15K speakers, and probably gives useful information that might inform your future decisions. I found my tests ... | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question My experience was somewhat the same, in that there were always reasons or excuses for the delay, but when I finally did get a projected delivery date, it was accurate. I was pretty convinced that I might have to go through legal avenues, but that ... | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question I certainly can understand the frustrations. My first AI M1 provided faultless service for over 15 years, with no new tube replacements needed. This new M3B sounds superb, and thus far. no issues whatsoever. Personally, I have no issue with the st... | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question BTW, I did remove the 12 beautiful gold hex screws fastening the top ands the beautiful guts of the unit. | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question Thanks. I mostly listen to digital content, although I have a high end turntable but have donated much of my vinyl content to NPR. I'm happy with the volume level thus far. We're moving to a new listening environment and time will tell. But the ac... | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question Finally received my Audible Illusions Modulus 3B last week, ordered in late April, so quite a wait. I kept my functioning trade-in unit until this guy arrived. The unit arrived perfectly packed, and plugged it in. The manual states that it needs a... | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question I’ve gotten more than 3 recent calls each about my order, and all promising delivery in early August, all consistent as to what remains finishing (at this point connecting power supply and burn-in testing), all from Jerry so I believe it will happ... | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question Sorry to have yet another living in my world. Same response, same frustration. It would be useful to know if anyone has actually gotten their promised M3B unit in the last year. | |
| Audible Illusions M3B question Did manage to speak with Jerry this morning, and he retrieved all of my information quickly and accurately. He said that it should "not be long now." Did not give specifics as to what precisely that meant, and I believe it is as stereo5 said, that... | |
| Replacing outdoor speakers Thanks, Mark. I'd narrowed my search down to DefTek AW650 and Klipsch AW650, and today demo'd both against each other. There was a very slight difference, Klipsch a little tighter and more defined on upper registers, DefTk a little (very little) l... | |
| Do you think audiophiles are the most gullible hobbyists It depends. If everyone has had a true audio logic hearing test and demonstrated perfect (human) hearing profiles and is under 30 years of age, then perhaps there is justification for spending thousands of dollars on cables, capacitors, power cord... |
