| Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp? 10-31-06: NewbeeMaybe in addition to Harleys breakdown, we also need one of those charts that show the range of all of the musical instruments etc so when I describe low bass coming from a flute you can look at the chart and tell me I'm FOS becaus... | |
| Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp? My question is genuine. I don't believe we can have a discussion about upper bass, lower mid, etc if we all are talking about different frequency ranges (or even worse, if we don't know what frequency ranges are involved, which is a scenario more ... | |
| Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp? Upper bass, lower mid, upper mid, lower treble...Sometimes, I wonder if we're all discussing the same frequencies when we write about these things.Specifically what frequency ranges define these terms? | |
| Tube amp with SS like bass T-Bone, agreed. Talk about apples to oranges, though. The Tyler PD-15, with high impedance and bass that goes to 38Hz and are quite different than even the Tyler System II that have lower impedance and go down to 32Hz.The question of SS-like bass ... | |
| Tube Friendly Speakers - Down to 30Hz - $3000? 10-30-06: DrubinThis isn't about you anymore, Grant. Sheesh...Ha! No kidding.My intent was simply to explain why I probably won't be responding to further questions. Makes me nuts when someone starts a thread asking for advice and never again resp... | |
| Consumer Electronic Show ? Nice reply Albert. It only requires a little creativity to obtain a CES badge...very little. | |
| Amps and Quatros The only tube problem with the Calypso I can recall happened a couple of years ago with a bad batch of tubes. The problem was corrected long ago. | |
| Tube Friendly Speakers - Down to 30Hz - $3000? I appreciate all the follow ups. This thread has reached the end of it's usefulness for me as I have researched and determined all the possibilities that would satisfy my requirements. | |
| Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp? The Modwright preamp can be warmed up with Sylvania GB-5687 tubes and/or certain NOS 5AR4 rectifier tubes. | |
| Warm and Detailed S.S. Amp? Moscode 401HR...a tube/SS hybrid...can be warm and detailed with the right input tubes. It can also be very neutral. Tube rolling is a benefit of it's design, and they can be easily changed by flipping down the faceplate. | |
| In the market for a plasma.........suggestions? Your suggestions Tvad look great and I was wondering if you compared the powervar to the brickwall and with what results.I have not owned a Powervar. I do own a OneAC, which is a transformer based conditioner similar to the Powervar. I find my One... | |
| Sacrilege Going from Tubes back to Solid State Thanks for the info, Tbg. You're the first to comment on the Exemplar/LSA system at RMAF. Which Exemplar CD player was being used. You may or may not recall I am using an Exemplar Denon 3910 with the balanced output option.It's interesing to me th... | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 VS Consonance Droplet Perhaps this is a loudspeaker set-up problem. | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 VS Consonance Droplet I heard the Consonance Droplet with a Rogue Zeus amp driving Zu Definitions, and the dynamics were oustanding. The music sounded live. I have to believe the DB-99 are equal to the Zu Definitions in dynamics. I could be wrong...So perhaps the issue... | |
| Resolution Audio Opus 21 VS Consonance Droplet It appears you are considering the Resolution Audio and Consonance players because you can run directly to your monoblocks. Is this correct?If so, and at the risk of beating the Modwright horse to a bloody and dead corpse, Modwright does offer a d... |
