| Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time Practical real world experience with gear trumps the "it's OK and maybe better for your gear to leave it on" opinion. Turn it off, or at least stop finding lame arguments for needless waste and admit you don't give a damn. | |
| Bargain amps and preamps with XLR connections? I was looking for the same thing and found a NOS Kavent S-33 (exactly the same preamp as the Vincent SA-93). Or they found me really...and now they're (Kavent) nowhere to be found, and I wonder what they did with all the left over Kavent stuff. In... | |
| Optimizing the Prima Luna Premium Integrated amp Please try KT120s as I'm still waiting for a tranny failure incident report from anywhere. Also, I haven't raved enough about the Chinese made "preferred" 7025s from the tubestore. They are very "clean" sounding and put a more extended and airy (a... | |
| KT120 on Copland CTA-405 integrated amp And so we wait for the "Transpocalypse." I'm posting guards on my Jolida just in case...or at least until I can get my hands on some Gold Lion KT88s. | |
| KT120 on Copland CTA-405 integrated amp Gold Lions and KT120s are made at the same plant, so you may already have your wish, although "GL" KT120s sort of can't exist since the GLs are a new-ish reproduction of a classic tube...it is interesting that nobody (I've heard of anyway) is maki... | |
| KT120 on Copland CTA-405 integrated amp The "might fail down the road" is the sum of Failure Information to date. I am thusly comforted by my warranty, and will patiently wait for the possible mass transformer meltdown that could be sweeping Tubedom over the next couple of years. My exp... | |
| KT120 on Copland CTA-405 integrated amp I asked this question, more or less, when considering KT120s for my Jolida 502p. Based on my reading posts, suggestions, tube articles, labels, tea leaves, talking to tube salespeople (and talking to the Jolida people), stopping strangers on the s... | |
| Donald Fagen-Sunken Condos I still like cerebral funk...even when derivative of itself. | |
| Avett Brothers Fans/ The Carpenter? As a cynical geezer musician I find it refreshing in a pop world dominated by hippity hop, Swift banality, Beiber, and Gaga, that a couple of dudes who can sing, play really well, and care about a high energy show are getting some air time. Unfort... | |
| What frequency do I crossover subs I think chicken heads are science at its best. | |
| What frequency do I crossover subs I replaced all the knobs on my current fave guitar amp with Chicken Heads so I can see the settings instantly. I say Chicken Heads for everybody! It just makes sense. | |
| What frequency do I crossover subs Weirdly, the point nobody ever seems to make regards the fact that recorded music has vastly disperate bass levels. I stuck a "chicken head" knob (left over from a guitar amp) on the gain pot on the back of my REL sub so I can (easily) adjust the ... | |
| Pro amps for home use? If you drive your Krell to "just before clipping" you have really inefficient speakers, you're drunk and dancing your ass off, or you like to listen while outside running your leaf blower. | |
| Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time Again...your car runs better when warmed up...leave it running. You can afford it, and really...who cares? Your oven...warmed up and ready for that pie...even if you don't make pies...ya kever know. Leave it on. If we kept our windows open while r... | |
| Do you leave the Jeff Rowland Amp on all the time It is important to check your butt for deer ticks...Brad Paisley even wrote a song about it (sort of). And I'm not surprised people leave their gear on all the time, I'm surprised anybody admits it. |
