| Best path to test different interconnects? Great suggestions so far, unfortunately in my experience you simply have to live with them for a while, what may attract you initially might not work for you in the long run. Also, your mental state changes over time, when your in the mood for mus... | |
| kimber 1016 ???? I have a pair, they are very similar to 1011, obviously in the family. They are ultra smooth and really do ad a punch to the bottom end due to the extra conductors. The bottom end definition and punch is the difference between them and the 1011. T... | |
| Any Derek Trucks Band fans? Thats where the Almond Joy candy bar came from - Gregg and Duane Almond! | |
| Basis Ovation / 2500 vs Sota Cosmos IV IO - check out the Basis 2200 signature also. I will echo Ebm - service from AJ Conti second to none, | |
| mcintosh amps any one can explain impedance taps My Mac 501 SS mono's sound better on the 4 ohm tap with my Thiel 3.6 spkers that have a nominal imp of 4 ohms but dip to 2 ohms. The 2 ohm tap sounded very different, not nearly as good. | |
| McIntosh Revel & JL Wpines, F1fanatic has given excellent advice. I have 501's plugged directly into dedicated 20 amp lines with stock power cords. Your are absolutely making the right move with dedicated lines, one of the biggest improvements I have ever made. I hav... | |

| Midrange texture? Jylee, have you tried different tubes in your CJ? I have a premier 14 and use a combination of Hitachi's and Mullards and love the sound. The GE made in Britain 6GK5's that CJ stocks are the worst tubes I have ever heard!You should pick up a used ... | |
| Phonostage Question I'm using an ARC PH5 and have run it with a high output MC - Sumiko Blackbird and low output Ortofon Jubilee. My CJ premier 14 linestage is fairly quiet so I have experienced no issues with either cartridge. Seems like that would be a good match t... | |
| Notice to all. Bob Williams of Audionut deceased. Taters....Unbelievable. | |

| Tube Recommendations for C-J PV10B/MV55 Combo What's in your PV10? I have 1 with Mullard CV4003's and substitute with Siemens ocasionally that are both nice. Although the unbranded East Germany 12AU7's that I got from CJ years ago are nice as well. | |
| What do you see as the downside of tubes? Unsound your 100% correct - it is a real turnoff! |
