| Conqueror 3c with a Shilabe, Skala or XV-1S? I currently have a Shilabe paired with an OL Illustrious MK3. Our tonal preferences may be similar. Years ago, I started with a Dynavector 10x5, then moved to a Shelter 501. A few years later I was choosing between the XV-1S and the Zyx Airy 3S (I... | |
| Bill Evans' Peace Piece Anybody heard the new Analogue Productions 45 rpm version?Curious if the new pressing improved on this at all. | |
| Favorite live LPs C123666 - I think the GD show from Cornell you're referring to was 5/8/77 (Barton Hall-Ithaca, NY). Legendary second set, absolutely - but I was referring to live recorded LPs. | |
| Hum in a Kora Eclipse phono section Thanks for the info -ag | |
| Left channel produces NO sound.......Help needed Sounds like you found the problem, but to answer your question, YES... a tube could have blown. The 834P uses two 12AX7's for left and right channel gain. | |
| EAR 834P tubes: which to match? The tube closest to the front of the 834P will make more difference in the sound of the unit than the other two. You can use a 12AU7 or equivalent as a substitute for the 12AX7.The two tubes closest to the back of the unit control left and right g... | |
| Amazing Solo Piano Recordings Two come to mind: Bill Evans/Alone and Keith Jarrett/The melody at night with you. | |
| $2000 CDP for Rock Music???? In response to your why would i ever want a pramp again question, I thought I'd give you a few ideas. I owned a Levinson 380 before I bought a 39. I thought I was in heaven until I upgraded the 39 to a 390S. That was just amazing - stunning is per... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? My 10/10s arrived about a week ago. I also own a Bedini BA-802 so I had the benefit of comparing Bedini SS to Bedini tube. Initial impressions - well built, nice finish, retro 50's styling (ala dynaco). Documentation was straight forward and bare ... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? Cellorover, I've spoken with John many times over the nearly 20 years I've owned his amps. I had been contemplating building a pair of tube amps myself, but after we talked at length about this new (old) project, I said let's go for it. They shoul... | |
| Anybody have some experience with Bedini amps? I just ordered a pair of the 10/10 mono blocks - Gary and John said they're about 2-3 weeks out. Can't wait to hear 'em. My 15 year old 802A is still a fine performer, but from what I've heard, these will be the bee's knees. Will report back if I ... | |
| Balanced and Unbalanced? Thanks for the input, I guess it would be as easy to unplug the other set when switching from analog to digital. Just curious. | |
| Anyone Else Like Jimmy Smith? Check out "Back at the Chicken Shack" recorded in 1960 with Kenny Burrell, Donald Bailey, & Stanley Turrentine. Outstanding. Also, Blue Note released a newly re-mastered (by RVG himself) version of "Groovin' At Small's Paradise" that sounds ex... | |
| DVD thru Mark Levinson 390s I don't believe the 390s does 24/96 conversion of any kind.It will "upsample" standard CD's to 24bit depth at 352khz. | |
| Mark Levinson equipment setup Assuming you've properly enabled the link functions on your 390s, the only trick to this is to make sure you have your CAT5 cable plugged into the 390's master/slave out port and into the 380's slave port. The 390 MUST be the master in the chain o... |
