Bent Audio Autoformer vs Tube Pre
Specs wise the amps are fine as is the Lynx. I've got that coveredI was not asking about specs but sound. Can we presume that the Lynx is more euphonic thus nullifying the need for a tubed pre or was it simply to chase a theoretically lower noise ... 
Bent Audio Autoformer vs Tube Pre
Jason, how has your sound changed? I know before you stated you felt like you needed a Dude (active tubed pre) in the mix due to the sonic characteristics of the Ncores. Lynx more euphonic than the Halo I presume?The passive game is interesting. I...

Tellefsen, put Dueland cast caps in your Dude. Lights out good. Grannyring spearheaded this idea and he is oh so right...... 
Anyone listen to Zu Audio's Definition Mk3?
You reap as you sow Mr Anderson. Did you ever have the Defs on Sistrum or just Equarack and Stillpoints?

Has anyone had any luck in contacting Dale Pitcher
An accurate summation Sufur. I would not recommend sending any vintage electronics to Dale for repair. An outfit like Alpha is the answer....His stuff is out of this world, particularly his new conditioning technology.

Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp
Very nice Sutts. Multiple systems is the way to go if possible. Another Dude would never hurt..... 
Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp
Sutts, stick some Duelands in your Dude first before making any unnecessary lateral moves. Do you feel the Dude is lacking in some way? Tube rolled much? 
Has anyone had any luck in contacting Dale Pitcher
Dale has always made things right for me and I have known him close to 10 years. Larry, I will email you Dale's contact data and you should deal with him that way.

Prdprez, I knew you had minimal experimental knowledge of this topic. Try putting your floor standers on a set of stillpoints or sistrum stands and let us know what you HEAR. Physics is not simply theoretical in nature. There is the experimental a...

Prdprez, what isolation products have you tried with your speakers?Mike, I know the Wave Kinetics is supposed to be a good product (a derivative of Stanford engineering). I would be curious to see what they would offer in terms of stand design or ...
