| Autoformers I had autoformers with my Maggie 1.6 and Rogue 120 Magnum and they worked wonders. They do everything they claim. You can actually dial them so that the bass is too tight. I found 12 - 14 OHM sounded the best. A fun toy and excellent sound. Plus y... | |
| How do I keep my cats off my amplifier? Gunbei!Shame on you!Antifreeze is expensive!Please refer to Slappy or Nrchy's methods :^)Actually some sort of wire cage IMO. | |
| speakers in a bad room Innersound speakers have a narrow radiation pattern which means less reflection off the walls.This is the direction you need to take.There may be other speakers that beam Quad ESL 57 maybe? | |
| Which Pre-amp is better suited for VTL TT-25 ? I would stick with VTL myself, not that I have heard any of the VTL items you mentioned I just believe in system synergy.I heard a Bat pre (it may have been the 3i I do not remember) I think it was the 3i and the Rogue 99 Magnum was clearly better... | |

| how do i know when my tubes are going bad? What you are describing is a perfect example of old tubes. The lack of interest in listening because the stereo is too mellow and uninvolving. New tubes would make the sound more vibrant and compelling.Of course something else could be wrong but I... | |

| Audio Note IQ1 cartridge experience? At $799 too! Thanks Khaki8!Can you compare the bass between the two?I find the Grado a little bass heavy, but very good otherwise... | |
| Audionote Soro SE, or cheaper single-ended? The Soro is really damn good with superb phono section and it sounds like 80 watts to boot. My friend and I have talked more than once how good it is for the money. A no brainer IMO | |
| Amp suggestions for audiophile virgin I agree with the sanity thing.....to avoid the lunatic fringe you could buy the stuff and not listen :) | |

| Audio Note speaker kit 2, experience?comments? Thank you Joe,Bob Neill of Amhearst Audio thinks the Audio Note AN-E is close in performance to the JM Reynaud Offrande which is the model up from my Trente.

| Audio Note speaker kit 2, experience?comments? C123666Thank you for the response, I guess at this time the model E is the only kit available sold as the Kit 2. If all goes well I will buy it soon.

| B&W N 805 vs. N 805 Sig. Opinions? FWIW I prefer the Sig 805 to the rather bright Revel M20 though they were nice. I prefer my Trentes to either and have read they better the Merlins and several other highly touted speakers too. The B&W sound is not quite my taste but for those... |
