| can a tube-o-phile be happy with ss? True tube guy can only be happy with glowing bottles. For the borderline believers, LAMMs, Pass XA.5 or Luxman brings a lot of tube like qualities. | |
| Pass XA 100.5 vs Lamm M1.2 These jokes are so bad that they are funny.Thanks for resussitating the thread. | |
| Eggleston Andra power requirements What does the Mc2301 add aside from more bass? (Comparing to two 275s)Thanks | |
| Which is the most tubelike solid state amp around Heard and owned some of the above mentioned amps. To date, the newer luxman class A amps sound the most like a tube amp to me. | |
| Nordost flat line cabels vs norse series I have tried BH, Heimdal, Frey, valhalla. It is highly dependent on the amp/speaker that is being used with. With some amps or speakers, there is little differences if at all. With others, there is noticeable improvement in going up the line. Sugg... | |
| Can excellent tubes transcend modest amps? Better tubes make a mediocre amp better but would go so far as transcending it. On the other hand, the are great amps made with so so tubes and still sound great. I would say great amp transcends modest tubes | |
| best loudspeakers for full Gryphon system Agree 100% with Tuboo. 15x15x9 would have significant bass issues with speakers with extended bass response. | |
| McIntosh MC275 / Audio Research VS-110 Owned both and prefer the mc275 for better bass control and lower noise. | |
| fine tuning speaker placement After a month, I finally got it to +/- 5db 20Hz to 16KHz. I also got a basic package from GIK.It had the most to do with where I was sitting.Many thanks for the help. | |
| fine tuning speaker placement By moving either the speakers into the room or the listening chair into the room, there will be a 10db suckout at 40-50Hz. However, the midrange and depth perception are better. If I move to speakers with 13 inch woofers, would that allow me to mo... | |
| What Cartridges to use with Triplanar IIV Tonearm? great with PC1 | |
| Avalon Indra vs. Magico V3 with Mc 275 ? Avalon and 275 would be a good match. I tried 275 & 2275 with Avalon Diamonds. They sound like a good SS amp but with slightly better midrange (stock tubes). | |
| good horns less than $3000 Many thanks fot the suggestion. How would the Khorns sound comparing to Omega speakers? Omega would be high efficiency but they don't look like a horn to me. | |
| Avalon Opus Ceramique vs Wilson Audio Sophia II Opus ceramique (used to own) has limited bass unless they are placed close to the front wall. IMHO, they are more refined in midrange and treble comparing to Sophia. For rock & metallica, I would pick the Sophia 2 due to better bass and dynami... | |
| Avalon Eidolon and Krell, good match or not? I'm a fan of B&W and Avalon is a step up. THe midrange is much faster and more detailed. Imaging also improves.IMHO Avalon tend to match better with warmer electronics. |
