| Anyone heard the E.A.R. "Acute"? Calvinj, I looked on Upscale Audio's site for those Siemen's tubes you are using with the Acute, but they have about 4 different ones in the 6922 / 6DJ8 / 7308. Which specific ones are you using and how much did they cost? Plan on giving Kevin Dea... | |
| Anyone heard the E.A.R. "Acute"? I was also interested in the Mullard CV2493/6922 I saw on Upscale Audio. Anyone ever use these or the Gold Lion 6922's in the EAR Acute? | |
| Anyone heard the E.A.R. "Acute"? I have the EAR Acute 3 CD player and wondering about tube rolling myself. Has anyone tried the Genalex Gold Lion E88CC/6922's in the EAR Acute? I saw in the thread that one user loves the Siemen's 1960's but what about that tube did you like? What... | |
| Is it time for a phono stage? The Herron always looked like the best value and best tube phono stage, but I've looked more into the new Zesto Andros 1.2, as the reviews are raving about with its new updates and versatility with cartridges. Does anyone have any experience ownin... | |
| Is it time for a phono stage? I'm in the same boat, Rkbcpa55. Listening in the store doesn't help much, as your system will be much different and the room setup could impact the sound. That said, based on reviews and hearsay, I've never heard anything but great things about th... | |
| Different Power Cords in same system - ok or bad? But isn't the Shunyata not current limiting as well? Power Conditioners seems like a gamble for sure. I actually sent my Transparent Conditioner back because I didn't want to risk it based on the return policy. I am going to be more patient and pl... | |
| Different Power Cords in same system - ok or bad? Stringreen, Which power conditioners have you tried? Just want to find out more information to interpret your negatives of power conditioners. Thanks | |
| Different Power Cords in same system - ok or bad? I should preface my question by asking those people who really want to help to only answer. A sarcastic sentence is wonderful help, Devilboy. If you could care less, please don't answer anymore. | |
| looking for a new cd player........ I've personally not heard the Rega CD player, but in terms of value, many praise its musicality and detail for the money. It is always on the awards' lists and there is currently a Rega Apollo CD player that almost 70% off for $395 on audiogon. Th... | |
| Heimdall 2 vs. Frey 2 Tablejockey,I will look into tube rolling at some point. i currently have the EL34 stock tubes to start and will then contact Kevin Deal if I want to tinker and fine tune the sound more to my liking. What power cord and conditioner are you using a... | |
| Heimdall 2 vs. Frey 2 Wlutke, So you really dig the Frey 2 - what is your system consist of? | |
| Audio Research PH6 Phono Stage - How is it? I appreciate your response, Zd542. I can see exactly what you mean. My own major purchases have been components I've heard together and really liked. I don't like an over ally clinical sound that gives a great musical presentation for 10 minutes b... | |
| Heimdall 2 vs. Frey 2 Thanks for the response Tablejockey. I am planning on auditioning the Heimdall 2 vs. Frey 2 in a couple weeks, but not in my exact system. It will run through my same amp (Primaluna HP Integrated), and other tube gear, so I can get their general f... | |
| Audio Research PH6 Phono Stage - How is it? Tmmvinyl,I agree is it definitely one way to go. However, I am building my system from the ground up so there is so many moving parts that it would be difficult to see what is improving or not. You have to make some purchases at the beginning at l... | |
| Audio Research PH6 Phono Stage - How is it? Another tube phono stage is the EAR 834, which retails for under $2,000. Not sure how this compares with the others in this thread, but it certainly is the cheapest. Any comments on this? Taters, I will look into the Zesto as well. Thanks for the ... |
