| Preamp Deal Of The Century- Update Best to you Mick going forward. Still have a Syrah from 2003 that I just can't part with although several have expressed interest. Time does fly! | |
| Maybe tube preamp A used Conrad Johnson pre at the OP's budget would be a pretty safe bet. First off you'll get a great taste of the virtue of tubes and if it doesn't appeal for whatever reason, doubtful at least from my perspective, an easy resell without any fina... | |
| Austin Acoustic horns For those who have music as a passion, support the live arts, money better spent and personally most rewarding. An audio system at such high prices is too much of a "pipedream" to the music lover who is more interested in music over stuff. Where ... | |
| Switching to solid state amp? What Wolf said, it really is true, take my word. The truth will set us free! | |
| Which Monitor Speakers to Consider Agreed with the the Decapo choice if your preference includes "lively", dynamic, detailed sound with this wonderful ability to convey the musical message, at least to my ears. Rock, Classical, jazz, vocals, small or large scale doesn’t matter just... | |
| Biasing signal tubes on a tube power amp/Quicksilver M120 There is no biasing required for the small signal input and driver tubes. | |
| Biasing signal tubes on a tube power amp/Quicksilver M120 Enjoy those amps tooblue, if they have the same sonic characteristics, with more power being the difference as the silver 88’s I am happily listening to, you are in for a real long term treat.

| Need recommendation for replacement of Vintage Conrad-Johnson PV-11 preamp. If you love it get it fixed, upgrading would be better yet. Along with Backers Labs, Bill Thalmann of Music Technology along with Conrad Johnson, all can do the repairs and upgrades which would be well worth the investment on a vintage CJ pre. | |
| Ref 3a mm decapo...best in price range ? Jbrrp1 I hear you concerning the BE, UNTIL it is fully broken which takes some time. I have heard both, there is no comparison to me, that tweeter is just beautifully integrated and transparent with zero strdency or brightness. Then again you may ... | |
| Ref 3a mm decapo...best in price range ? I’d read the reviews and check the archives AND do a Google search, there is plenty of info and useful insight on this design, it’s a classic (over 30 years in different guises)and at the price point and beyond worth a listen if you can. The lates... | |
| Will a sub woofer mess up my tone and phase aligned speakers The Reference 3A Decapo’s are phased aligned speakers and in answer to your question then as well as now no, a properly integrated sub can not only add the lower frequencies but flesh out the mid bass through the upper frequency range. One of my e... | |

| What sounds best: Vinyl or CDs Sevs I’m not too sure that ALL youngsters prefer their MP3s. I was in a bookstore just 2 days ago and there were four 20 somethings thumbing through the new vinyl recordings, as limited as the selection was. Plenty of 180 gram recordings of the ro... |
