| Reimer Wind River did not sell... Metralla, the M designation in most business usage ralted to quantity designates 1000 and the MM designation represents 1,000,000. | |
| Reimer Wind River did not sell... I have Reimer's Teton GS speakers which use the same drivers and ribbon tweeter as the Wind River except it is a larger speaker and utilizes 2 woofers. The sound of this speaker is incredibly life like. I replaced a pair of $10M name brand speaker... | |
| Your ''best kept secret'' speaker choice ? I also would like to recommend the Reimer speakers. I have the Teton GS full range speakers and they sound incredibly good and are a tremendous value. | |
| Tube Preamps with Bass? I have the Lamm LL2 and it has excellent bass that goes much deeper than the Hovland preamp it replaced. The images are very lifelike with this preamp. | |
| Suspended Basis vs Nonsuspended Teres I have a Vibraplane under my Redpoint TT and it does make an excellent base for an unsuspended TT. I do think though that other less expensive base materials such as granite slabs can do a very good job. As far as unsuspended tables in general the... | |
| Has VPI quit supporting the HW series turntable ? Just because they they decide to no longer manufacture the HW-19 series does not mean that they will no longer service them. I doubt very much that Harry Weisfeld would not want to service these turntables of which I imagine there are many thousan... | |
| Shelter + BentAudio loading: field test After going back and forth between 36ohm and 50ohm I have settled on the 50ohm setting for my Shelter 901, Bent Audio, Trumpet combination . In my system the 36ohm seems to take too much of the leading edge transients out. The 50ohm setting is mor... | |
| Shelter + BentAudio loading: field test Great post Doug and very timely. I too have the Shelter 901 and the Bent Audio transformers going into a 47ohm Trumpet phono. I currently have set to 100ohm and am now ready to start testing different resistors. I have made alot of changes to my s... | |
| Phonostage question ... You may want to check out the Hagerman Trumpet phono with S&B transformer. The combination will run around $2800 and comes with a 30 day money back guarantee. This way you could do a direct comparison with the Rogue and return the Hagerman if ... | |
| TT drive belt comparison Thought I would give you some of my observations on the mylar tape. I have been using a 1/2" mag tape shiny out on a Redpoint/Galibier battery powered moter controller and Testa Rosa TT with drilled aluminum platter, teflon top, and anvil weight. ... | |
| Lamm M1.1 hybrid comparisons to tube amps Thanks for your response cytocycle. I am considering these to replace some high powered tube amps. I like the crystaline you are there mid range that tubes seem to offer. My speakers require an amplifier that controls the lower regions. My current... | |
| Any Hagerman Trumpet and Acoustech PHD owners? I am using the copper S&B step-up. The transformers are the same but their are a few differences. The Bent stepup is housed in seperate enclosures for left and right channels. The feature I like with the Bent audio stepup is that he can provid... | |
| Any Hagerman Trumpet and Acoustech PHD owners? I have the Hagerman trumpet and highly recommend it. From a sonics standpoint it is superb with exceptional dynamics. extended highs, and a wide open soundstage. The only real downside that one may have is that it is rather tall and will not fit i... | |
| Svetlana KT88 is good for Power 2? Ilbiffo,I use the Svetlana KT88's in my power 3 se's and they sound very good. It is my understanding that the 6550 tube is in general a more reliable tube but the KT88 produces more power and has a somewhat warmer sound. I agree with Kevziek in t... | |
| Motor Options Jim, you may want to email Thom Mackris at thom_mackris@hotmail.com he is the Colorado connection for Redpoint/Galibier. He designed the controller and would be able to let you know if theirs will work in your application. I have the controller an... |
