| Allnic 1201 and Herron VTPH-2 I've had the allnic 1201, allnic h3000, and herron vtph-2. In my system, I easily preferred the herron over the allnic 1201, but the allnic h3000 was my favorite. In my opinion, the herron is more comparable to the allnic h3000 than the 1201. | |
| Anthony Bourdain dead at 61 RIP....I will forever appreciate the entertaining way he made the world a smaller place by bringing cultures closer through his travels. The world could use surely more of that these days. | |
| Nuprime Call me biased as I have an upgraded one for sale...but anyways, it is a very good amp. I was choosing between the st-10 and the benchmark ahb-2. The benchmark won out because of its superior transparency and I've been moving my system in that d... | |
| Audio Horizons fuses.... won’t buy them again... I've had audio horizons fuses in both my preamp and amp. Easily audible improvement in sound quality (no A/B comparison required) and no issues with them blowing. Just wanted to chime in with my experience. | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! Anyone try the teo preamp? | |

| Can stepup transformer be used with an MC phono stage? Guys...thanks for your responses; both are very helpful. The input impedance should be 47k or open since the unit uses RCA loading plugs for load. I have been listening to the Electron Images phono stage with my .2 mV output (6 ohms internal im... | |
| PranaFidelity speakers, what say you? "Means" in the first sentence should instead be "Prana". Darn spellcheck | |
| PranaFidelity speakers, what say you? My friend and I both thought the means room with the bhavas was a very good sounding room. So much so that we went back for a second round of listening. Very dynamic with a fantastic soundstage (both width and depth) and good detail. | |
| DIY phono loading plugs question I purchased a pair of Vishay VAR (I think they're called "naked") resistors and put them into a pair of expensive Furutech 102R RCA plugs. Only got to compare them for a few songs, but I'm hearing a lower noise floor compared to my old plugs. Th... | |
| DIY phono loading plugs question Thanks for the responses guys. I think the Ayon Polaris III's loading without any plugs is 47kohms so i will purchase some 100 ohm resistors to make the plugs. | |
| Teo Game-Changer IC's - get on the bus! Does anyone think there might be long term longevity issues with these cables since they are a liquid conductor? Would they be more susceptible to damage? | |
| Used Preamp on a budget advice please. Check out the Morrison ELAD too...only 2 inputs but sounds great | |
| Can stabilant 22 be used for power cords and vacuum tubes? Thanks for all the responses folks....I've decided to try it on my power cord prongs but not on tube pins. | |
| Anyone change record clamp on Basis 2800 turntable? Just audiophilia nervosa....wondering if there is some improvement that can be had by changing the clamp. Probably should just leave well enough alone... |
