| paradigm studio 100V2 with Mcintosh tubes Rsbeck as God created all equal Watts are created equal as well.Load can vary power and that's what it all about.100Wpc is power at 1kHz freequency at 8Ohms. What will be the power to 22 Ohms? 3 Ohms? | |
| Scratched discs - what do to? Forgot to mention one more thing 'bout GamuT CD-1:I realy saw it in the demo room played abused(I mean realy abused caseless laying arround player and on the top as well) CDs with no compromise so I'm not sure if it has such design problems. | |
| Help to pick redbook player Karabiy.., Unico might not be enough for Paradigm at least I didn't feel it was conservatively rated. I'd prefere going with NAD C370 integrated and you're right,... prior upgrading CD-player. | |
| Tube Rolling on PSE HL1 hybrid line stage preamp I'd just in case asked if matching is required. Pretty odd but Sonic Frontiers does...Please note that 6922 often needs to be matched to itself as dual triode especially if used on output stages. | |
| Scratched discs - what do to? You haven't mentioned buying a better CD instead of the one you have. Maybe it'll be much cheaper.Living in NYC gives you that possibility greater than in any other city or town. Go to St Mark's Place where you might find a replacement for $2...3 ... | |
| CD playing Rituals My CD-rituals are extreamly identical to vinyls.Here are my ten CD-commendments:1. Wash hands preferably with soap(I love Oil of Olay or Irish Spring not sure if any audiophile grade exists on that issue).2. Keep CDs in jewel boxes or non-abrasive... | |
| paradigm studio 100V2 with Mcintosh tubes biamp is the best treatmemt for all complicated and tough loads. you might end-up with much less but clip-free power. you can useNAD C370 integrated used($400) as woofer amp(upto 600Hz) and preamp --> marchand crossover(tube or ss whichever you... | |

If such doesn't exist than don't bother.A resistance loading needed when speaker represents a tough load. Usually you conn... | |

| classical suggestions I was grown on classical music when I was a kid, but got away with rock and jazz and now realy comming back to classical.Always prefere listening to the russian or soviet symphony orchestras whichever piece I realy shop for. I love Tchaikovski(Nut... | |
| Solid state amp ultimate stop... I'd stay for Pass X250 or Plinius SA250. Both of these products are realy ultimate on all audio qualities you can only think of, but certainly costly. If money's no option, I'd certainly choose preamps from above brands. | |
| Anything beat dh labs t-14 for the money...... Sean, I like this good mentioning of "Power Bandwidth" is realy missing parameter that DOES specify how good this amp should sound to make everyone clear that specifications means something at least.How about amps that have badwidth(and certainly ... | |
| I just sold my cd player what should i get? I wisper, but don't tell anyone...I listened in direct comparison Cambridge D500SE($449 list $300 for demo) and CapitoleII players and they sounded very identical with exception that Cambridge was sounding a-little thinner than CapitoleII so for n... | |
| I need a recording with a good drum solo . Yes, certainly there are more:Shop for Pierre Moerlen records(not sure if available on CD) all of them with stunning percussion and drumwerk. | |
| Finally a SACD worth owning Glad to hear that but still would prefere to wait for more releases, cheaper and so to the players before I even go to SACD stuff. |
