| Puritan PMS 156 vs. Audioquest Niagara 3000 Lol. You bypassed $10000 worth of products above the Niagara 5000 to get to the Stromtank. You had better prefer it. | |
| Line Magnetic 508ia and the Elusive 805 Tube Any more impressions from folks regarding their favorite NOS 805 tube. I currently have RCAs but was looking to try a different brand. What are your top two NOS 805s? | |
| Antique Sound Lab 805 DT SETs--WOW It's difficult to find impressions of NOS 805 tubes. I am looking to venture into that world after trying an RCA 805 and liking it. Do you fellas have any experience with other NOS 805s and what are your preferences? | |
| Pass Labs XA30.5 -> Line Magnetic 508ia? I also had great a great experience when purchasing my LM 508ia. It has worked flawlessly since 2018. It responds very well to tube rolling and also running it with a dedicated preamp scales it considerably.I was wondering if anyone knows where/ho... | |
| Network Switches In the past it was the electrical engineer with years of studies behind him and plaques of degrees on his study wall whose domain it was to protect us from ourselves in audiophoolery. Thanks to computer audio, now a highly certified CCNA can now j... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes @ianderson I have had new Elrogs, purchased April 2018, in my amplifier running almost daily with no issues. Under new ownership, the QC issues seem to have been ironed out. | |
| Acoustic Zen Crescendo That's great to hear that you found your desired match for these speakers. It just goes to show how different amp topologies can provide satisfaction with the same speaker. I recently got to listen to the Crescendos with my LM 508ia and the sound... | |
| Line Magnetic 508ia and the Elusive 805 Tube By the way, are any of you 508 owners using separate preamps? If so, what are you using? | |
| Line Magnetic 508ia and the Elusive 805 Tube I'm also interested in your impressions of the Cossor. I've been pretty active in teh Steve Hoffman thread - I'm also interested in better options to the Psvane 805ATs. | |
| Line Magnetic owners...how quiet are they? I own a 508ia and experience no hum whatsoever. I have read of the odd number of users who experienced this issue with LM amps, however not at a rate higher than I hear regarding other manufacturers. | |
| Line magnetic 518 with Harbeth SHL5+ Why not go with the 508ia, which uses 805 tubes and spits out 48W of SET power. IMO the Harbeths will require more power than what the 518ia can give you. | |
| Review: Verastarr Grand Illusion Series Power cord I'll have to add to the praise of the Grand Illusions. I have them on all my equipment now. I have the HC (High Current) version powering my RSA Elgar Power Conditioner. I also have the regular Grand Illusions on my DAC, amp, and Linear Power Supp... | |
| Amp for Acoustic Zen Crescendo 2 ? I have a question for those of you with the Line Magnetic 508ia. I've recently purchased this amp, and I'm using it with a pair of Acoustic Zen Adagios - soon to be Crescendos. My question for the 508ia users is are you using a preamp/linestage wi... | |
| Acoustic Zen Crescendo Thanks wig for the feedback. I ordered a pair of the EML XLS and should have them tomorrow. | |
| Acoustic Zen Crescendo Any new Crescendo owners love to share their experience with this speaker? I'm considering upgrading to it this year. It's between these and the Coincident Total Victory Vs for me. Are the long-term owners still loving their Crescendos? |
