| Stereo pre-amps with dual outs for bi-amping and a subwoofer line out SST AMBROSIA 2000 | |
| Small drivers vs big drivers A lot of general information here. first, you can make a small driver go below 20hz. We did it several times back in my old Marcof Electronic Days. We started with a 91db 8 inch peerless driver, when we were finished, this driver had an F3 of 19hz... | |
| SS preamps with two XLR inputs and at least four outputs [two of them XLR] @zimmerma Here you go, I've sat in front of this pre many times, always found it musical and enjoyable. Coda 07X.... New List price is $6500, I've seen them used for half of that. | |
| SS preamps with two XLR inputs and at least four outputs [two of them XLR] @zimmerma I saw it, but others recommended did not meet exact criteria either. This was as close at most of the others and quite frankly, I listed exactly what it did because it was not exactly what you had listed. .... Although the Mac's hit qu... | |
| WASAPI vs. ASIO on Windows10? I typically use ASIO or Kernel Streaming. Both work well and I don't hear a difference In tonal quality although sometimes I believe there is a slight improvement in soundstage on KS. The differences would be minor and quite frankly, I'm not sur... | |
| SS preamps with two XLR inputs and at least four outputs [two of them XLR] SST Ambrosia 2000 is a great sounding pre, gives you a set XLR in and 3 sets of single ended, plus a great phono section and 2 sets of XLR out and 2 sets single ended out. | |
| New Technics turntables How do you really tell until you get your ears on both? Personally, I prefer a pickup at the end of the record. I wouldn't sacrifice sound quality for it, but I'd love to hear a 1500C. | |
| Cartridge for ATP-12T I had this table and arm for about a year. The cartridge that I enjoyed the most was an older Nagaoka. Mated well and tracked well. You could get an MP300 for around $500. I would think this to be a superb combination. Cartridge weighs 8g, yet sho... | |
| Upgrade from Technics SP25 I purchased an SP25 with an ATP-12T arm inside of a Technics wooden plinth in rough shape about 4 years ago with to sole idea in my head of flipping it. I refurbished it and did some minor mods. When I was done I had a hard time letting it go. P... | |
| Krell XD gear in the House Initial Impressions If the Krell is as good as you say, this is a very smart business decision. I had a very good T+A preamp. I took a bath selling it. With Krell’s history, If a piece comes out and reviews say that it is incredible, audiophiles believe that review. ... | |
| Sony PS-X9 I have owned many tables Including a PS-X60 & PS-X70, Kenwood L07-D. I’m refurbing a Technics SL-1310 Mk2 right now. I’ve never heard the PS-X9, so it may not be fair of me to say. With the much better power supply and heavier platter and Isol... | |
| Budget phono stage under $100, cheap but refined, does it exist? a Musical Fidelity VLPS II with s seperate power supply is great bang for the buck | |
| Dust cap pushed in by kiddos... best home remedy? I have used a few ways to do this. A good tape applied works well. Apply tape then scratch it down with your finger nail. Slightly hold down on the tape so that it won’t pull up, then pull at an angle, do not pull up and simply rip the tape off. I... | |
| Modifying Philharmonic 3 crossovers Functionally, no, different voltage capacitor will not matter in the circuit. However, In general, (not cast in stone) higher voltage caps sound better. I have used a few clarity, but have never compared different voltage parts side by side to g... |
