| Tube Research Labs Dude vs. Shindo Labs preamps Grannyring - Shindo uses no circuit boards; they are 100 percent point to point wired. The interior of a Shindo component, like the exterior, is literally a work of art.I try to keep an open mind about all things audio with one exception - Shindo ... | |
| Tube Research Labs Dude vs. Shindo Labs preamps @Grannyring,I understand your point and already realized from your comments and review that you believe the Dude punches way above its price point. I suspect many of us have that belief about one or more components we have used and enjoyed.Case in... | |
| Dynaudio Confidence or Sonus Faber monitors @Rpssb - The "strings" on the GM stands are removable. If you take them off you see a modestly sculpted grey-black metal pedestal that I believe looks fine. My wife and I experimented with the stands and speakers with and without the strings and f... | |
| Tube Research Labs Dude vs. Shindo Labs preamps Tthean et al - I am enjoying this thread and hope to see more responses. I have 4 systems, each with a different preamp: Shindo Masseto, Leben RS28-CX, Audio Research Ref 3, and Quicksilver linestage. That is how I rank them musically. I hope some... | |
| Dynaudio Confidence or Sonus Faber monitors In a room very close in dimensions to the OP''s, I use a pair of SF GM's with excellent results. I previously had the SF Auditor M's in that room, but upgraded to the GM's because I found I prefer the GM's musical presentation. But the Auditor M's... | |
| Phono stage ideas I 2nd the Nagra BPS if you prefer to buy new. It is a terrific performer. But if you can stretch enough to get a used PH-7, that would be even better, and would give you more features and convenience. | |
| Shindo Monbrison better a RedWine Isabella? In the event you decide to sell the Monbrison, I just have one question - Where does the line form? | |
| Your favourite cartridge EMT JSD5. | |
| Levinson 23.5 question Agree with Samzx12 - This happened with my 27.5, 331, and 334. Sure wish I still had that 334. Great amp. | |
| Pre Amp with top class phono stage? Shindo - Monbrison and all models above. | |
| CD-Receiver Recommendations Just to close the loop on this thread, I purchased the Naim Uniti and installed it today. So far, even with modest speaker cable, the performance with the Taminos is outstanding. Thanks to all who offered advice/suggestions. | |
| Mid-Fi Integrated Amps? A 2nd vote for the Anthem 225. Superb SS integrated, priced unbelievably low for the sonic performance and features if offers. Built like a tank as is all Anthem gear. And Sonic Frontiers is a great company to deal with in the event you need servi... | |
| Best preamp for 2k-3k Shindo Aurieges. Could very well be your last preamp upgrade. | |
| Shindo Monbrison better a RedWine Isabella? Westexdent - "Helpless before the seductress that is music reproduction" - A fundamental truth for many, including myself.Congratulations on the Monbrison! Shindo preamps are so incredibly musical. I had an Aurieges and after nearly a year moved u... | |
| Tube pre-amp upgrade from Mcintosh C2300 I have a Ref 3, and have heard the Ref 5 and LS27. I did not hear enough difference from my Ref 3 with either, especially the LS27, to motivate me to upgrade. I have owned the Aurieges, heard the Monbrison, and own a Masseto. If you do not need ba... |
