| Best mellow sounding 12ax7 for Thor TA-1000 preamp I actually do have a manual I can scan and email if you still.want it. Old thread, I know. | |
| EAR 834p mods - specific mods, specific sounds? Thanks guys! I decided to hold on the mods until I try a Joule OPS-1 MkIV I just bought. If that isn't the ticket I will report back. | |
| Fidelity Research 64s vs Jelco SA-750e This is great feedback! Exactly what I had hoped for. Karl_Desch, what a break for me that you have experience with both of these with a Koetsu. Thanks so much. | |
| Fidelity Research 64s vs Jelco SA-750e Great thoughts. Thank you. I had not thought about the weight of the ard the Sota suspension! Good warning... | |
| Tube amp for Verity Audio Parsifal Encore? I meant to also ask about OTL amps. I have never owned one but not sure any would be considered "warm." I have read that Atma might be closer to rich balance than, say, Tenor. | |
| Amp for SF Amati Homage? Rogue Zeus or 180, Jadis Defy 7, Quicksilver 88 or 90 or M-135 The only thing I worry about with ARC or BAT is the possibility that the top early won't be warm enough. I really don't like amps that are referred to as neutral or detailed, in the typical HiFi vernacular. And i have a long-held prejudice against... | |
| Amp for SF Amati Homage? Rogue Zeus or 180, Jadis Defy 7, Quicksilver 88 or 90 or M-135 No sorry... I am looking for a tube power amp, not an integrated. | |
| Amplifier for Sonus Faber Amati Homage? Invocrus005, are you recommending devaliet for the Amati because you have heard it with the Amati?Also I am looking for tube amps only. | |
| Cary 805 questions; with Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers Thanks zipost. I appreciate your specifics. Perfect bass is less of a priority for me so we will see. Luckily I have not bought the Cary's yet so I get a free listen ;) If they don't work I will look at more beefy push pull designs. | |
| Cary 805 questions; with Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers George I think we are ships passing in the night. I will stop trying to rephrase my question. Thanks for your time anyway! | |
| Amplifier for Sonus Faber Amati Homage? I really prefer the sound of all tube amplifiers, preferably kt88, el34, 300b or similar sound. Are there any that come to mind that could be had for less than $4K used?Thanks | |
| Cary 805 questions; with Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers That's not quite what I meant George. What I was asking is whether in 100% of the cases an apparent mismatch in impedance and Power between amp and speakers results in degradation of the musical experience. I realize that speaker design is a comb... | |
| Cary 805 questions; with Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers I used to have ja-30... They are fantastic. Thanks for the idea. | |
| Cary 805 questions; with Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers Mac 275? Is that the likely suspect? If so I've heard mixed things about certain versions... any special version you would recommend? | |
| Cary 805 questions; with Sonus Faber Amati Homage speakers Thanks lostbears. I am okay with the bass being a tad flabby so I don't mind using less power. My priority is avoiding any etch/brightness, and having a relatively rich balance with a weighty midrange. George's point about impedance mismatch was c... |
