| Copland CTA504 tube amp - how good are they? Thanks for your response.Pop and rock are one of my least likings, even tough I occasionally listen to them. My preference is most on classical music and 50~60 jazz and vocals. Looks like it is worthwhile to explore more. | |
| Polk LSI15's to Salk Song Towers Is it?I thought all Salk speakers are in different leagues from those mass produced speakers at similar price range. | |
| Most powerful and popular EL34 tube amp? Looks like RM-9 is a good choice and it is within my budget. I will be looking for it.Thanks. | |
| Most powerful and popular EL34 tube amp? I have 4 almost new Siemens EL34 tubes and a few more (4~6 Russian/Chinese) variants. If I go for monoblocks, sure I need to use 8 or more tubes, but I'd rather stick to a single steroe amp.It might not save me whole a lot by sticking to EL34 tube... | |
| Most powerful and popular EL34 tube amp? Thanks for your response.From your suggestions, VTL-85 ($999) and Quicksilver KT-88 Monos ($1050) look interesting, if I don't restrict myself to EL34 tube amps. I am not looking for int amps since I am going to use my vk-30 as pre. How about Copl... | |
| Most powerful and popular EL34 tube amp? My max budget is $1500 (for used).It will drive Tyler LSS (one piece). (Is it 89 or 90db?)I already have VK-200 and VK-30, but want to also keep a tube amp which would work better than VK-200 for different styles of music. BAT VK-60 may be an idea... | |
| Balanced tube preamp as good as BAT VK at lower? I purchased a used vk-30 with phono and remote.I had not recognized any inconvenience with Rogue Magnum 99 whose remote has only volume up/down, but with BAT remote, I don't think I can ever go back without remote or limited remote feature. ;-)For... | |
| How high end must your system be... Using Zu Wax Biwire cable ($1000+ new, bought used at $400) on sub $5000 systems did not reveal notiecable difference from $100 single wire from Signal cable.My current system (amp, preamp, cdp, turntable, speaker) is a bit over $15,000 (if bought... | |
| Entry Level Turntable? Thorens TD145/150/160/166 + Grado gold. You can get them at around $300. | |
| Pre + phono under $2500? I guess you can get a used vk-31 + remote + phono card at the price.I recently got vk-30 with phono card and vk-200, all at under $3000. The sound is amazing. (I have Tyler LSS speakers and Arcam CD23 cdp) | |
| How good is vk-p3 phono? I posted the question since I was very disappointed with the phono card in my vk-30 tested in my friend's house. After I've read some of the responses, I could not but conclude that the phono unit was at fault or there was something else seriously... | |
| BAT vk3ix Looks like it is cheaper to sell your vk-3ix and get a used vk-31/32 or vk-40. ;-) | |
| How good is vk-p3 phono? I mean BAT vk-p3 phono module. | |
| Hi, does anybody own the new tyler acoustics D10's Got it yet?Comments? | |
| How good is BAT vk-p3 phono card? Sorry for the confusion. I meant by new separates in the $1000~1500 price range, that's what I heard from BAT dealers/users.I haven't listened to EAR 834P, but have read enough good about it. If P3 is comparable to the EAR, I guess it is better th... |
