| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hi Gwalt,Have you used any premium fuses in your Border Patrol amplifiers? Charles , | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes I've installed my replacement Elrogs in my amplifier today . Needless to say that they sound divine. I hope the cathode resistor swap is the answer for tube longevity in the Frankenstein MK II. Time will tell. Charles, | |
| Recommended: live jazz NYC venue, 'Bar Next Door' Scott,Live acoustic jazz in an intimate environment is a terrific template for natural sound. I've been frequenting these types of venues for 25 years in the Detroit metropolitan area. Jazz is alive and well and I'm very grateful for this music... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Knghifi, I don't blame you for taking the plunge. Knowing how good the Red fuses are, why resist the very probable further improvement with the Black fuses? If my sound becomes any more realistic, the next time I play Carmen McRae I'm going t... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Off topic for a moment, The Seattle Seahawks are making a game of this. I have to admire their heart. Gap is down to 10 points. | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Tomic601,There are two Yamamoto DACs, mine and Grannyring's are solid state(YDA-01a) and there's also a tube version(YDA-01b). Both were reviewed and compared in a 6 Moons comprehensive writeup. | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? I'll also state that the Romulus Eclipse and Yamamoto placed in well configured systems are very competitive with high quality turntables in regard to musical involvement and organic character. Some analog setups are in fact analytical in pres... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? Tomic601,I'm very familiar with the Romulus Signature and the Eclipse version with the Stealth capacitors. The Eclipse is a clear sonic upgrade. The Yamamoto can't compete with the Romulus in terms of flexibility and format options, as it's stri... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Too far I meant, not "to far". Site wouldn't allow me to edit mistake.Charles, | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hi Rob,Thanks for such kind comments. I love discussing the wonderful jazz musicians nearly as much as I do listening to them. I just realized that I was going to far off topic here. I have no doubt that Oregonpapa can offer equal if not more ... | |
| Aesthetix Romulus Signature Upgrade Worth the $3,000 ? One observation I've had with High End is there isn't a linear relationship with cost and performance. Some expensive products sounds sublime and some are decidedly underwhelming. The first step is to know your goal and what type of sound you r... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Bud Powell? Oh yes! I could discuss these guys for hours with you. Don't get me started on jazz trumpeters☺☺. Ok, enough topic diversion, I'll shut up. Charles, | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Oregonpapa, I share your economic perspective, I'll happily spend my money on products that deliver what I seek if their value is what I would deem reasonable. The beauty of choice in a competitive and free market. When I first got into jazz Osca... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Oregonpapa ,We seem to have very similar taste in music. Given the size of your music collection you may already own it but I will suggest it anyway. The Thelonious Monk recording I'd mentioned yesterday is "Live At The Jazz Workshop". I think yo... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Geared4me,The Cable Company is taking orders now for their initial shipment of this new product. Expected delivery is 10 to 14 days. Keith, You're correct, so far the SR fuses at each level have lived up to the hype and continue to improve. Oreg... |
