| $18k Tube preamp for large scale symphonies please Yes we will talk at the show, thank you. | |
| Tannoy Westminster amp matching question. Maril555 I assure you Charles1dad's system is not lean or lacking in dynamics. I have heard the Coincident system at many CES shows and can tell you that the sound you hear thin and aggressive is what I also heard. I know Isreal likes to use the E... | |
| $18k Tube preamp for large scale symphonies please Atmasphere, why don't you bring 3 different balanced interconnects to CES and let us see if you can hear differences. This can be done after hours. | |
| $165k - $200k speaker performance for $40k ? Bhobba, you are right on the mark. This is almost another troll post. Just because a speaker is 100,000.00 does not make it great. I will say again don't listen to reviewers and go to as many HI FI shows that you can go to and listen for yourself.... | |
| Modded 103 & 105 Oppo's? Modright and their is already a waiting list. | |
| VAC Owners:Outboard Phono Stage? You know its going to be a phono stage and probably a preamp. I hope Kevin listened to me last year to come out with a totally dual mono preamp including dual mono power supplies. I just will have to see for myself at CES 2013. | |
| D2v vs Classe ssp800, which would you prefer? You will love it. I think you will find the voice to sound more natural and clear. Does the XTZ EQ do five channels? | |
| $18k Tube preamp for large scale symphonies please Passive preamps are colored just like any other component. If the coloration fits your system thats what counts. | |
| VAC Owners:Outboard Phono Stage? Congrads, you will love the preamp. There is a cd you can buy that will give you the right level for phono and you can break the phono stage in that way a lot quicker. I will post the name of the company. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Pictures are now posted on charles1dad web page under tweaks. The job was actually easier than we thought. Just look at the difference in size be the Duelund and the old Solen Cap. The new capacitors were sealed into place with silicone cement. Th... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Just curious is there such a thing as solder with a high copper content? | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Wire can also be synergistic in a system. In a single ended system that my be a little warmer a copper wire could take it over the edge where in a push pull system it may be what the doctor ordered. This category was a great thread keep it going. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil My mistake I meant to say is to tin the capacitor's wire with the solder and then solder it to the speaker wire. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Grannyring, I think what you are saying is cut the leads to the shortest length you need and tin the wire with solder along the whole length and then solder it to the crossover wire. | |
| Fremer lays an Ostrich egg... Can you imagine what would happen if Lynn or Magneplanar or Audio Research was panned in the magazine. I think folks we would have a major riot on our hands. |
