| Tenor 75 Wi OTL One point about the Trancendent that does bear consideration is that it is a quite inexpensive for its performance. I am not sure what the current pricing is but you DO get a lot for your money. In retrospect, it is unfair comparing a higher price... | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL Clio09 I don't mean to rain on the parade concerning Trancendent amps, I owned the T-8 prior to the Berning, great amp btw, but to paraphrase Senator Lloyd Benson to Dan Quale during their debate for VP in '88, "Mr. Trancendent you're no Mr. Tenor... | |
| Once again...looking for a "tube like" SS preamp Good luck Lp newbie, I've never heard any ss pre that can do what you are looking for. You will get everything top to bottom so far as clarity and dynamics but you will never find the characteristics that tubes get and ss doesn't, presence and ton... | |
| Your best ''outstanding'' products in last 5 yrs? I have been "on the wagon" the past few years since I was too busy at work. That has all changed over the past 8 months and I have had the opportunity to spend some time fine tuning the system. I will say this, to all you folks out there with tube... | |
| "God Bless the Child" on Idol? Samuel, after the 1st year I watched, the year Jordan Sparks won, I was disappointed because I really loved Melinda Dillon who I thought had the most talent. I quickly learned it isn't about the most talented. Other than David Cook the last two we... | |
| "God Bless the Child" on Idol? I can't agree with all your observations Samuel except one thing for sure, we both loved Haley. While I agree that the judges were certainly less critical I really felt that somehow this year showed a marked improvement week to week with all the c... | |
| Pink Floyd "Whatever you say about the music, one thing I liked about Dead shows was being allowed to answer the call as needed ;)"For sure, at a Dead show they were either too stoned to notice or too much into "jamming" to even care, take pictures, record d... | |
| how close in sound can a tube and ss amp sound ? It is a moot point if neither can be perceived as the "absolute sound", in other words live music. Isn't that the objective? No, not to everyone I'm sure. | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL "Looking a little deeper at Tenor back then this goes to show you the company they kept at consumer shows and dealer show rooms with the likes of Pipedreams and Karma. Marketing know how of high dollar crap aimed at the gullible with deep pockets,... | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL "I would rather listen to this amp one hour and turn it off for the sake of heat in the summer than listen all night to a lesser sounding amp."Enjoy your amp Glory. I hope you find a solution to the heat from those big 6C33C outputs, keep us poste... | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL So far as the zh270 going up in price 10 fold, i'm not too sure about that Lewm. I wasn't aware that they were ever 2500.00 when they were first introduced but if that was the case I can't imagine Berning doing anything but breaking even if one is... | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL One other thing Glory fyi. If you can't make the Tenors work for any reason there is another OTL amp option. I recently read on a thread a response from a dealer of these speakers, Audiofeil that the Berning zh270 was one of the best he heard with... | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL You have to be kidding Glory 6K? that is a great price from their retail of 17k I believe. This was suppose to be the "it" of OTL amps and among the best period from what I've read and heard, Jtinn was a dealer and major proponent of this amp. I d... | |
| Album which you have listened to most? "Here are three active groups/artists that I have enjoyed for over 30 years. I hope to enjoy them for another 10+ years"How about another 30+ years Shadorne, enjoy! | |
| Album which you have listened to most? Oh yeah, I forgot ALL the Doors and The Yes Album and Pet Sounds... this is hopeless! |
