| Conrad Johnson Premier 140 6922 tube swapping I'm not sure what design flaws you're referring to. I think that Johnsonwu meant that since the amp is an older model that the capacitors and resistors might need to be replaced. I don't know how many years they are good for, but I suggest you fin... | |
| Conrad Johnson Premier 140 6922 tube swapping Agathe79, This is starting to spin out of control. Your original problem was a noisy 6922. If you are happy with the sound of your amp except for the noise, get a new 6922 and see if that takes care of your problems.If you can talk to the person y... | |

Many people consider the tub... | |
| A most welcome article Siddh, Yes that is good news. I'm with Bifwynne, I wish they would get the high-res download situation straightened out. I also have plenty to listen to in the meantime. | |
| Is the CD and DVD/Bluray going away? Mlsstl,Yes, you're right that there is a difference between what is being counted and that's why the numbers are different. Nielsen is the only organization I'm aware of that counts total record sales and I'm sure they use estimates in their count... | |
| Is the CD and DVD/Bluray going away? Mlsstl, Nielsen releases their numbers within the first few days of the new year. The RIAA releases numbers for product shipped in a few weeks. In the past the two sets of numbers have been fairly close. | |

| Discount Stores, i.e. newaudiovideo.com The big discount sellers are often not authorized dealers and the manufacturer will not honor the warranty if you don't have a receipt from an authorized dealer. I've even seen a manufacturer say they wouldn't fix grey market gear if you paid them... | |
| what good amplifier match with Speaker Dali 4B ? All of the amps that you listed are good quality amps and they all should be able to drive the Dali speakers easily. Just make sure the amp is at least 50 wpc into 8 ohms and doubles power to at least 100 wpc into 4 ohms.I don't know if any of the... | |
| what good amplifier match with Speaker Dali 4B ? Kvbien, I haven't heard the gear you own. I assume the Sansui is a receiver. I don't think that you will find an amp that will make a big difference in the sound of your system. I could be wrong though.I suggest that your best chance of putting to... | |
| Born to Run: Why the Poor Sound Quality? Get it on cd, the 30th Anniversary remastered set. It doesn't sound as if it was recorded in a chapel using a single stereo pair of cardioids, but it sounds fine and communicates the excitement and young adult angst that Bruce intended. It certain... | |

So you could use just about any amp to drive them. You don't need a powerful or expensive amp. Tubes o... |
