| The effect of my dog on sound quality "Yeah, I'll raise the power strip up to a level that he can't reach!" If you do, start wearing boots when you listen. He may have a moment of awareness, recognize the actual source of his angst and go for your ankles. | |
| The effect of my dog on sound quality Is this the first time the dog’s expressed it’s opinion of your system? Just curious! Perhaps the caption should have read, "The Effect of Sound Quality on My Dog". Interesting experiment, covering both the fields of contact treatments and Animal... | |
| Phono Setup with Peachtree Nova 150 and Dynaco St-70 Good to hear(double entendre intended)! | |
| Phono Setup with Peachtree Nova 150 and Dynaco St-70 From the manual: "AUX-2/PHONO INPUT: Accepts line-level input from an analog audio (RCA style) source. Also, accepts analog audio output from a phonograph/turntable with a Moving Magnet (MM) cartridge. Please note that when using a phonograph/turn... | |
| Audio Research LS15 vs. SP14 Yes, a nice tubed phono stage in the SP-14 . Also, given the aluminum chassis, it’s very easy to install an IEC socket(ie: C-14), to facilitate the use of an upgraded power cord. | |
| How does the Phase Linear 400 compare? Correction: That TAS article was not titled, "ten BEST amplifiers of all time", but rather, 'The Ten Most SIGNIFICANT Amplifiers of All Time'. Most contributors that included Phase Linear in their list, did so(and said so) based on the fact th... | |

| Bad NOS tubes... OH, how I WISH I couldn't hear all the differences between NOS tubes and the stuff being cranked out these days! Could'a saved so many Dollars and..and....... NAH! | |
| Bad NOS tubes... You used the tubes and they functioned properly for HOW LONG? I have no problem at all, with the idea that those tubes tested and sounded, "NOS", when checked by the seller. How is he supposed to know what they will do, in your equipment, after si... | |
| Cary SLM-100 amplifîer upgrade question I’ve owned a pair of SLM-100’s for the past 12 years, and have enjoyed them immensely. They are in a different league than Vincent. Of course, your tube choices will greatly influence your presentation. You may already know that the output transfo... | |
| Sanders magtech or odyssey kismet You're welcome! | |
| Sanders magtech or odyssey kismet Can’t speak for everyone that actively bi-amps, but- I’ve always used a crossover that enables me to adjust for disparities between amps. My first was one I built using DeCoursey boards(1980), for my home system. I ended up selling that whole syst... | |
| Sanders magtech or odyssey kismet @bdp24- @bdp24- Here’s an item of interest, if you can stand the fan noise or have a closet for isolation: (http://www.ebay.com/itm/HAFLER-Pro-500-Power-Amplifier-Two-Channel-225-watts-per-channel-25062/17217...) I used a DH500 for bottom end, 20+... | |
| Sanders magtech or odyssey kismet @bdp24- I’m not crazy about typing, so I’ll try to keep this brief. Never having owned Tympanis, I’ve nothing concrete to offer there. I’m powering two SEAS L26ROY D1001s for bottom(X @ 250Hz/10th order), so the only commonality is a 4 Ohm/ch load... | |
| Sanders magtech or odyssey kismet @bdp24- Much of the venue ambiance info in your recording resides in in the lower few octaves. Use a Crown amp and you'll lose it. I've been using a slightly modded TransNova 9505, to drive my transmission line woofers, with excellent results... |
