| best sounding integrated for under 2500.00 cj made a lower powered 2250ss power amp that is 125 wpc and would work nicely when combined with one of their tubed pre-amps. I am not necessarily pushing cj here but they are a very reputable high end manufacturer with great customer service sho... | |
| best sounding integrated for under 2500.00 Pubul57 agree which is a good reason for staying within the same family of components i.e. cj amp cj pre-amp. Just for reference I am driving a pair of Focal monitors 1007Be with my SLI-80F1 direct coupled in triode mode (40wpc) and have way more ... | |
| best sounding integrated for under 2500.00 I just read through Stereophiles review of your speakers and they appear to like power and do have a nasty looking impedence curve as Pubil57 makes reference to. If yo must have an integrated then I would suggest buying the largest powered and bes... | |
| Phono Pre Upgrade I second the Herron and Keith is grerat to work with.Chuck | |
| Denon DL-103R cartridge update Certainly makes sense. But I didn't I want to put money into a cartridge with that much of a channel disparity. Dgarretson good to hear from you hope things are going well.Chuck | |

| Denon DL-103R cartridge update I thought I heard the same thing. So I sold mine for trade bait instead of trying to have it retiped.Certainly a great cartridge for the money though. Chuck | |
| best sounding integrated for under 2500.00 Pubul57 have you heard that combination? | |
| Denon DL-103R cartridge update HdmThanks.......I think with the upgrades (retip, wood body) from SS it would be a very good cartridge. Especially if you get one with that good of a channel imbalance.Chuck | |
| best sounding integrated for under 2500.00 If you would consider a tube integrated I would suggest a Cary SLI-80 (Used) ....Chuck | |
| Denon DL-103R cartridge update Just curious but what are you folks seeing for output channel imbalance on your 103r's? Mine was R .29mv and the L was .33mv. I was curious if this is pretty normal. I suspect the Zu audio modded units as well as the units from SS are tighter (Sor... | |
| Add small pigtail wire off negative out of amp.WOW All I can say is interesting and it is certainly easy enough and inexpensive enough to try. I would think a phenomenon such as shadrone mentions is probably what is going on here.Elizabeth thanks for the post.Chuck | |
| need to down size to monitors I went from Thiel 3.6's to Focal Be 1007's about three years ago and have been very pleased with them. Listen mostly to Classic Rock(Zeppelin, Floyd, Nirvana) , Classical(Symphonic Works) and Jazz (Female Jazz Vocals, Krall, Barber) . I power them... | |
| Preamp "Snap, Crackle, Pop" I agree with the previous two posters concerning replacing the tubes. Chuck |
