| Hook Up Revox Reel-to-Reel to Tube Preamp Thanks for the responses. I need to rethink this endeavor since it sounds more complicated than originally envisioned. I wanted to record and playback but since the tube preamp only has four source inputs and one main output, it seems like this ac... | |
| Rack/shelf for albums - suggestions please FWIW - I tried ULINE steel shelving. I went to Home Depot, bought good quality wood planking, cut it, stained it, and placed it on the the steel shelves. The project was economical and accommodated all of my stereo equipment and two shelves of LPs... | |

| What speaker cables to buy for my Krell s300i amp? I would try the Mapleshade Double Helix speaker cables with Plus upgrade. $440/pair with 30-day trial period.

| Best Two-Way Monitor Speakers under $700 New/Used I don't think my friend will add a sub-woofer (at least initially, but I could be wrong). I think he would prefer to purchase a pair of efficient two-way speakers equipped with dynamic bass and mid-range capabilities. I really like Totem Acoustic ... | |

| Vintage Tube Services Still in business? I spoke to Andy in early July regarding a purchase. He told me at that time that he was launching a new company (or a new division). He was going to revamp the VTS website and post a new website for the new division. On the day I spoke with him, h... | |
| 6SN7 Tube pre amp with great sound staging capabil My recommendation is the Mystere "ca11". Recently bought one and couldn't be happier. This model incorporates a small form chassis and retails for $1795 (new). You can buy the full size model for $2295. I replaced the stock 6SN7 Chinese tubes with... | |
