| Best tubed full-function preamp with remote I would like to thank all contributours to this thread. It has helped me with my decision. I finally settled for a ModWright LS 100 which is now installed in my system. I have replaced the stock tubes by apropriate NOS tubes and the preamp is curr... | |
| Best tubed full-function preamp with remote Looks as if I should seriously consider not only to replace all tubes related to the signal pathway (which I did) but also relatd to rectification. Not everybody agrees that this is necessary...??? It is certainly worth experiemnting - and it look... | |
| Best tubed full-function preamp with remote The search is over...after much soul searching and considering my bank account I finally settled for a ModWright LS 100 with phono. I have already ordered sophia electric 6SN7 for the line stage and CIFTE 12AU7X for the phono. With my tube modded ... | |
| Best tubed full-function preamp with remote I see that Atma-Sphere gets a lot of support here thanks for suggestion. I will try to get an audition. | |
| Best tubed full-function preamp with remote First thing - and by necessity - I decide to wait a while (onhwy61) as the buyer that I had for the McIntosh withdrew when he realized that I had no screws in the cover due to tube rolling activity. Currently the safest bet would be Modwright as I... | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? I use a Modwright modified OPPO BDP 83SE and I am more than happy with the sound. Vinyl is different - better in some aspects - not in others (VPI Superscout with Shelter 90x). | |
| What tubes for sibilant SET Triode amp Thanks for the couple of great hints. Gallo sides I checked all connections; these seem fine. The Cayin do not seem to be phase inverting as they collaborate well with the Gallo subamp also hooked up to the Ref 3.1. In fact I get +/- 3dB all the w... | |
| What tubes for sibilant SET Triode amp Roomsize and listening preference make me listen at 85dB max.most of the time..so even with my Gallos rated at 89 dB - there seems to be plenty of headroom for my amp that is rated 25w. And in fact it can go MUCH louder than I care for before dist... | |
| SET amp for Gallo ref 3.1 BobheinatzI could not agree more with you - but as you state yourself size maybe a part of the SET fancy; to get a good below 50Hz response you simply need a lot of bass membrane surface combined with enough cabinet volume to get there on puny pow... | |
| SET amp for Gallo ref 3.1 Bobheinatzsounds a bell with me.....driving a pair of Klipschhorns in my basement with a slightly modified set of the old Quad 22 (not SET I know). Each time I listen to some small scale jazz on that setup it sounds REAL. Unfortunately my living r... | |
| SET amp for Gallo ref 3.1 From the posts I glean that I seem to value SET "glory" over neutral sound....shame on me! The Music Reference have been on my list to listen for a while as they seem to be well built and powerful. The Canary would currently break my bank - althou... | |
| SET amp for Gallo ref 3.1 Thanks Richard for making me aware of the Butler Amps. Having read some on the internet I can not claim to know whats going on inside them - but they shure look like a great match for the Gallos.As for the SET glory I see that I would need an ultr... |
