| Preamp Deal of the Century You all know of the big falling out between Peter and Kondo some years ago. I have heard both sides of the story and cannot decide who is at fault if anyone. I am inclined to believe it is language difficulties. At any rate I find both the Kondo M... | |
| Inverted Polarity Correction Question Fi magazine once published a list of labels with inverted signals, but they were full of shit. All you can do in try it both ways. Unfortunately most expensive dacs do not allow such a change and very few preamps have an invert switch. | |
| Review: Lindemann D680 CD Player I cannot fully comply with your desired comparison. I have compared the Lindemann playing cds with a Accustic Arts Drive 1 and Zanden 5000 Mk II dac. It is very close contest despite the two divergent philosophies of these two companies. Zanden us... | |

| NOS Tubes make a Huge difference No I was not saying tubes don't make a difference at the output level. I meant to say that NOS were less important there, but I must admit I have experience only with 45s, 2A3s, and 300Bs. For all of these directly heated triodes, new production t... | |
| NOS Tubes make a Huge difference Maybe true for miniatures and especially for 12AX7, 12AU7, 6922, and 6SN7s, but not true for output tubes. | |
| Up grade to Dodson 218 ?? I have yet to hear the Dodson 218, but I suspect from what I have heard from those who have heard that you should definitely get one. I guess it is the oversampling king! | |
