| 3 Tonearms 1 preamp Bob, I did not find much loss in my conversion, but my system is tuned for tone, not high resolution, so Ymmv. I also have a preamp with an integral phono stage and just took two of the extra line level inputs and ran them to the phono stage, a di... | |
| Thought on OTL tube amps Stan, in addition to Mac, the Sansui BA-5000 solid-state amp used output transformers:http://audio-database.com/SANSUI/amp/ba-5000-e.htmlNote the weight of the amp. Interesting because Sansui began as a transformer manufacturer. | |
| 3 Tonearms 1 preamp Bob, to do what you want to do is a compromise, and you will have switches in the signal path before the RIAA EQ lifts the voltage of the signal, unless you use seperate phono preamps into seperate line level inputs in your preamp. That said, if y... | |
| 3 Tonearms 1 preamp Bob there are certainly passive preamps with switching or devices such as the Manley Labs Skipjack, which is a very high quality input switcher. The problem is that the phono signal is the smallest, and most frail, signal in your entire system. Do... | |
| 3 Tonearms 1 preamp If you have the real estate on your present preamp just add a selector switch and two more sets of RCAs. Or have a tech do it for you. It should be on the back panel and should do the switching before the active circuit. I converted the first thre... | |
| Was Beta as good as or better than reel to reel? You must mean Goggleing! LOL, now that I'm old I can remember archaic audio crap, but I can't even spell. Now where's my house.......................... | |
| Was Beta as good as or better than reel to reel? 53 last month. I didn't say that a wire recorder was better. And if you don't know what that is Goggle it! | |

| Was Beta as good as or better than reel to reel? Absolutely not! But 8-track and Elcasette were much better. | |
| Klipsch Chorus or Cornwall II Chorus does not sound very good, the bass alignment is off, skip it. The Chorus II is really good, however. And yes, your room is a sound killer. | |
| Manley Stingray II Integrated Amp-Owner's Review I use a silk scarf to cover my tube amps. A pillow case is so......pedestrian, as is plex. Try Hermes, or perhaps Versace. | |
| Are there any constants in speaker wire designs? Double blind tests, more like the tin standard, LOL! | |
| Last time you felt that "tingling" sensation? Last time I worked on my tube amp without discharging the power supply caps. | |
| Appending my EAR 834P for more mc quality sound Ah to know the price of everything and the value of nothing. Good going. | |
| Klipsch Chorus or Cornwall II I run the Fortes and love them, but I don't think that your decision has anything to do with the sound, per se. If you want to put the speakers out in the room for optimal imaging the Chorus is for you. If your room is such that the speakers will ... |
