| What are you favorite artists and songs to listen to on your system? Bartok "Music For Strings, Percussion and Celesta" Ozawa/BSO on DGG LP. Mahler Symphony 1 Ozawa/BSO on DGG LP. Lively, well-recorded with satisfying dynamic range. And all-analog too! | |
| What are you favorite artists and songs to listen to on your system? Problem with having too many LP's is I can't remember which of the two I have! Will have to check! LOL! | |
| What are you favorite artists and songs to listen to on your system? I have that same Steve.Wilson recording on LP! Will have to dig it out of my collection and give it a listen! It did have good reviews! | |
| Erhard Audio - Dynaco SCA-35 type amp Certainly a good-sounding 6BQ5/EL84 tube amp! But with low power will need careful speaker matching. Heresy's will work well! | |
| JBL 4312SE 70th Anniversary ? Don't know the new ones but the original 4312's are very fine mid-size speakers! Though more favored by the. rock and jazz enthusiasts than classical! | |

| Power tube temperature Could be the screen grid voltage on the output tubes is too high for those particular tubes (running at or exceeding their rating limit). This will cause distortion and shorten tube life! Measure the screen grid voltages for each output tube and m... | |
| Decent 6-8ft phono cable advice needed. DH Labs Silver is competitive with the real expensive IC's. TRUTH! | |
| Phono stage and cartridge I have been in this hobby for 40+ years and am always on the lookout for better recordings. Focus your search this way rather than on the "flavor of the month" component! Your present system is fine enough as is and quite revealing of recording SQ... | |
| Phono stage and cartridge Recordings whether CD's, downloads, LP's and streaming vary widely in sound quality! Some good, some not so good, some bad - and a few GREAT! This is REALITY! And it has ALWAYS been so! There exists no "magic ring" - or component - that will trans... | |
| Low Watt Solid State Amp I am the original owner of a Bedini 25/25 (bought new from Innovative Audio in Brooklyn, NY in 1981).And I agree with trelja - it is still the amp (SS or tube) to beat in the sonic sweepstakes! I have never found a tube amp to equal it - though my... |
