| Von Schweikert VR-1 speaker:quality sound or hype? I would put them in the same category as Green Mountain Audio speakers. | |
| Will Vincent st-70 upgrade Hum control. I never would have guessed, but why do you need hum control and how does it work? | |
| Cleaning chrome base on Quickersilver 90 monos I also have Quicksilver monos and I use a product called Never-dull. It's available at auto parts stores and it is made for all metals. It will make your Silver 90s look like new again and it's easy to use. | |
| Recommending a tube preamp for Linn amps/speakers Linn is one of those products that is finicky about mixing and matching. You are better off staying with an all Linn system. | |
| Power amp + CDP: is that enough? Not likely. Your CD player was not intended to drive a power amp. You can try it, but the sound, while clean, will be lacking in midbass punch and the music takes on a sterile character. If you can borrow a power amp give it a try and tell us what... | |

| kt88's for Quicksilver 90 watt silver monos I recently retubed my Silver 90s with JJ KT88s from Mike Sanders. Mike knows what works best in his amplifiers. | |
| Hearing Tests A major factor in the validity of on line hearing tests is the speakers used in the test. The speakers should have a perfectly flat response. | |
| Tube Rolling and the Quest for "perfect sound" Phaelon, I like your post, but if there is one thing I have noticed, when the sound is good and I mean really good, everyone agrees that it sounds good. Well, except for the people that think their stereo system sounds better than live music. | |
| Configuring my system.. component opinions. Marakanetz, I think you mean SL-1. JL-1s are mono amplifiers. | |
| Tube Rolling and the Quest for "perfect sound" More often than not a tube CD player will sound best with the tubes it was designed with. Not all tubes are equal and to really hear how these tubes are changing the sound you should bias each and every tube you try. The problem is there are no bi... | |
| Need Suggestions For Raising Speaker Height Skylan makes excellent stands. Most of the recommendations will degrade the quality of your stands. I see only two options for you. Tilt your existing stands to aim the tweeter at the desired height or buy taller stands. | |
