| Best Speakers under 1k for me Hi , interesting post . How high is your ceiling ? Do you have carpet ? Cloth covered furniture ? Have you tried hanging a couple blankets for a test ? Sounds like you need to address room issues first . I have MK I Omens and love them . My room i... | |
| Power conditioner or outlet? Hi , did you upgrade the Outlets ? I have a Richard Grey unit and Silnote cords . But I also installed Hubbell medical grade gold plated outlets . I was amazed at how cheap the existing ones were . They utilized a spring push in system . The Hubbe... | |
| The 70’s are back Thanks nonoise , I’ve looked at Kendrick’s photos , but I’ll have to read the info . My JBL’s have the Ti tweeters . I’m hesitant to mess with the crossovers as the potentiometers are part of the baffle . I’m pretty good with a soldering iron , bu... | |
| The 70’s are back Interesting thread based on the division of Taste . I have in the closet a stellar pair of JBL 4312a’s , mirrored set in the original cartons and a custom ordered set of Sound Anchor stands ( 26” tall ). A Sansui 9090DB, a Marantz 2026, an MXR 15x... | |
| Morrow Audio re-design announcement: No more Ag coated Cu; Increased numbers of runs. My introduction to Morrow began by getting free tweaks advice by email . I decided to try them against my current Interconnects. I emailed and asked for advise regarding MA4 with upgraded termination Vs MA5 with Mike’s standard connector . Mike pr... | |
| What were your humble beginnings on the path to high end audio? 1973, Dynaco SCA 35, Dynaco FM 3, Garrard 40B w/ Audio Technia . Bulk 10 ga speaker cables, cheesy red , white and yellow Interconnects . Advent small speakers . Then I switched to JBL L-19’s , homemade shielded interconnects , 8 gauge copper ( AC... | |
| Best $40 I've spent...maybe ever Well Played NRENTER ! BTW I’m envious of your Dragon. God Bless TDK Metal cassettes ! Anyway, if you haven’t done so allready , consider installing Hubbell Medical Grade outlets , or something similar . I had good results switching out my standard... | |
| Tube Pre-Amp, vs Solid State with Tone Controls/EQ to take edge off the top end? Hi , I purchased a Schiit Loki 2 weeks ago . Not a perfect solution , but very versital and worth buying . Running a Rogue RP-1 with Telefunken G-73R ( 12AU7’s). Switched out my Had Inspire for some heavily modded Dynakit MK III’s . Tone was hollo... | |
| silver with tubes and copper with solid state ?? Hi , interesting thread . I think that your question ( statement ) is fairly correct , but is too broad of a generalization. I currently have a Schiit Yiggy , Rogue Tube pre , and a couple different tube amps . My room is 18x24, with thick shag ... | |

| Value of burn/break in? I purchased an entry level tube pre 2 years ago , a Rogue RP-1. After two weeks I changed the 2 12AU7’s and after 4 or 5 pairs, settled on Telefunkens . Then I auditioned 3 different power cords that are under $125 ea . Both made a huge difference... | |
| Have l become unstable? Yes ATC’s . But for Buddy Guy , you’re gonna need Polka Dots too! I’m envious, I can’t afford ATC . One of the most powerful , clean sounding shows I ever saw was Supertramp’s Crime of the Century Tour at the restored Warner’s Theatre in Fresno . ... | |
| The big DAC decision Boy , here’s a subject that most will not agree on . Besides you will have to find out for yourself . First I have an Oppo 105, and I don’t use its DAC. I currently run a Schiit Yiggy . So I would audition the Yiggy and 2 others to start . They in... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? @nutty , good choices . I live in Clovis (Fresno ). Saw Trower with Pattinson at a small venue ( Tower Theater ) . A couple years ago went with my brother to a drum clinic ( at Bentley’s) with Carmine Appice . After the clinic we went to see Carmi... |
