| solid state integrateds that will hold their value DarTZeel. Then again, never seen one for sale. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup Hearing the Devore O96 tonight- will have a comparison to Zu soon :) | |
| Is there any 50W 300B SET monoblock out there? The issue with running any SET at this output is distortion. To put it another way, you never want to run a 300B at even 8 watts. | |
| Best Rock Album of 2014 New Pornographers "Bill Bruisers" is really, really good! (as is the sweet color vinyl/recording) | |
| Best Rock Album of 2014 Toddnkaya- listened to Strand of Oaks a couple times. I think the group has promise. Interesting combo (post punk with rock cues), but still pretty raw imo. Some of this is intentional, but I look forward to see them grow. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup fwiw, I had to bump my sub xover up to 65hz in my new room. Phil still preferred 40hz, but there was an obvious cavity in the sound. To me, very distracting as I could hear the sub come in low. | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup KeithR here...been awhile. Have been working on getting the Def IVs setup in my new room. Still not optimal, but getting closer. Toe-in to come up next as my sweet spot is just too narrow. Sometimes I wish I had Soul Supremes or Druids which I fee... | |
| BAT Service I had a great BAT service experience years ago as well. Victor and Co. are great to deal with. | |
| Zu Audio Soul Supreme Impressions? Sounded fantastic in Newport. | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Rowland 301s- didnt last a week. | |
| Magico S5 vs Tannoy Westminster Royal SE Mike- interesting your MC275 sounds best. I would expect this as a more neutral tube amp (KT88-based) would work best with your new speakers which are quite warm or "sweet" as you say.I've heard Tannoy/Cary several times and found it so syrupy and... | |
| Best Rock Album of 2014 Just can't get into the new Beck- so dreary, but not groundbreaking or fresh. Call me crazy.I am really enjoying Damon Albarn's album- its pretty unique as far as singer/songwriter music goes. | |
| Best 300B SET Pani- I'm sorta in your camp. 845 works better for more that kind of music. | |
| Best Rock Album of 2014 Your welcome, Ghosthouse- probably still my favorite album of 2014 | |
| Audiophile Active Speakers? Barefoot is quite good, depending on room size |
