| Another Zu Thread As I recall, Bartokfan has heard several Tyler models, so he's not making assumptions simply based on owning Thor speakers with SEAS drivers.FWIW... | |
| Used VAC Super? Moscode 401orBelles Reference 350? The First Sound Presence Deluxe II created the largest and deepest image I have heard in my system. However, it was also a bit too bright in the highs for my taste, although I never heard the First Sound combined with the Moscode. I was using a VA... | |
| Another Zu Thread Paul has Thor loudspeakers with SEAS drivers, which fueled his interest in Tyler loudspeakers since they also use SEAS. This has been mentioned by Paul in past threads. He endeavors to own Tyler loudspeakers one day. | |
| best sub $1000 amp to mate with tube preamp 01-25-07: RotariusIIRC, the Odyssey has pretty low input impedance, may not be a good match for a tube pre.I had no problem whatsoever driving Odyssey Stratos Extreme Monos with a tubed preamp that has only 18dB output gain. | |
| Walker Audio Prelude LP Cleaning Solution Thanks Tafka_steve. That's useful information for investigating alternative cleaning solutions. Audio Intelligent's enzymatic cleaner is specifically intended to clean mold (spores), proteins, fats and starches. This is discussed on the website. W... | |
| Used VAC Super? Moscode 401orBelles Reference 350? FWIW, I use a Lamm LL2 Deluxe with my Moscode 401HR. I can also suggest a First Sound Presence Deluxe II, which I have also owned and is outstanding in it's own right. Different flavors, with the First Sound being the more neutral of the two. Both... | |
| best sub $1000 amp to mate with tube preamp Probably the McCormack would be easier to re-sell. However, if you are speaking value in terms of sound bought for the dollar invested, I might lean toward the Odyssey. Both company owners are terrific guys. Your preamp will require fairly high ga... | |
| Another Zu Thread 01-24-07: BuffordRight Tvad, my problem is getting the wobble out, that fourth spike is just really tough to get right.My speakers use four spikes as well. It takes some finessing.BTW, the four spike issue is precisely the reason some speakers (an... | |
| Walker Audio Prelude LP Cleaning Solution Clearly, all these systems are two or three step processes which include an ispopropyl alcohol/water solution that follows the enzymatic cleanser to clean the residues mentioned by Tafka_steve.Tafka_steve, thanks for explaining the difference betw... | |
| best sub $1000 amp to mate with tube preamp McCormack, Odyssey and Channel Islands are all non fatiguing, IMO. In my system, the Odyssey had more top end energy than the McCormack and Channel Islands amplifiers. The Channel Islands sounded somewhat flatter and more sterile than the McCormac... | |
| best sub $1000 amp to mate with tube preamp If you are seriously considering Class D amplifiers, you might want to send an email to Audiogon member "Plato". He's a reviewer, and he has heard and reviewed the PS Audio amp along with at least one or two other Class D amplifiers. He can give y... | |
| Looking for turntable for under $1000 I considered the Lenco, but after watching several E-Bay auctions and reading several Lenco threads, it became clear that the investment was eventually going to exceed $1000 once a better plinth was built and a good tonearm was purchased. I decide... | |
| Another Zu Thread I realized after reading Miklorsmith and Undertow's responses that the leveling question may be one of method/technique rather than hardware. I apologize if my earlier response seemed obvious. | |
| Another Zu Thread 01-24-07: BuffordAs long as we are on the spike subject does anybody have any suggestions how to get them level. I've spent what seems like hours trying to get my Druids level and still havn't gotten them perfect. Any tricks?If the spikes are thre... | |
| Walker Audio Prelude LP Cleaning Solution 01-24-07: Tafka_steveTvad, the sporicidin enzyme cleaner sounds similar to the Buggtussel enzyme system and it would probably work well with records contaminated with fungi, but it would not work on the mold release compounds. That would require s... |
