| Why Don't More People Love Audio? now were worried about the prices to get into this High End Audio having to come down so every Tom Dik and Harry can get in? I'm not sure I like the sound of that.)Hmmm, wonder if that has anything has to do with the fact that you're one of those ... | |
| How Pathetic is Welborne Labs? I think you are over-reacting. It seems to me that Welborne was just trying to get the item back to you the quickest way possible. Your address is a public record available to pretty much anyone in the world w an internet connection. | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Source and price for the Elrogs? | |
| Vintage Receiver: TANDBERG, MARANTZ, or…? Tony C- If you can find one, Pioneer made a receiver with internal transformer for multiple voltages called SX-1000TW. 50 wpc. Had kind of a funky proprietary speaker output connector. To my college age ears, it sounded great. The similar SX-9XX a... | |
| Solid State amps with tube preamps Not to threw a curve at you but many people are happy with tube amps driving full range stats. Look up Atmasphere's comments on why this is true. I know that both his OTLs and Wolcott tube amps have proven to be very successful w Soundlabs and I b... | |
| Amp and preamp on same outlet? Ralph- The guy just does not get it. He's talking how he think it sounds, you and Jim are talking electrical safety codes and specifications. Audiolabryinth- Even if were true that the larger breaker is somehow making your system sound better (I'm... | |
| Storing tube gear Lewm makes a good point. Leave 'em in. And so does Azjake, esp. if you live in an area with extreme temperature swings (seems like that applies to all of us, lately). | |
| Amp and preamp on same outlet? Jea48- Save the bandwidth. He's not listening. Or he can't read. Or he believes that the building and electrical code writing authorities are conspiring w Bose to make us listen to inferior sound ;-) | |
| Storing tube gear I'd remove them, but for only a few months, I don't think it's a big deal either way. | |
| mMarantz 2325 help Not meaning to argue w you, ZD and admittedly w/o any personal knowledge of that unit, I'd not be so sure that it's inferior to modest priced current MM stages. Remember that there were no CDs back then, so phono stage performance was very importa... | |
| Best Transport for Tidal Thx, Mofi. I'm running LMS on my MusicVault so I'll check out those links and see what happens. | |
| analysis plus oval 8 vs purist venustas Nsgarch gives you very good advice. The most important thing to remember about cables, AC cords and interconnects, is that the vast majority of the time, their performance is totally system-dependent. There is very little that one can reliably say... | |
| Best Transport for Tidal Cerrot- I think you'll like the modwright transport. I'm using one to play files from my Musicvault server and it also sounds pretty darn good w the Pandora1 (the higher bit-rate service). Can someone tell me in fairly basic terms what I need to d... | |
| Rip or Copy? Ptss- I'm a consulting wetland scientist. | |
| mMarantz 2325 help Any source with a line level output will work just fine. |
