| All New Magico A5 Loudspeakers // Biggest "BANG" For Your BUCK On The Market ?! Are these speakers better than Tekton ? | |
| Devore Fidelity Orangutan O/96 @atmasphere Agreed and I listened in what appeared to be an incredible listening environment with top notch components where many pairs have been sold. I really just think it comes down to listening preference,, personal taste, including your brai... | |
| Devore Fidelity Orangutan O/96 So I spent a solid 2 hours demoing the O’96 this past July at In Living Stereo in Manhattan. The room was extremely well treated and the accompanying electronics were Mactone. I don’t remember the cabling. From my written notes on that day - O’96s... | |
| best phono stage under 10k @saxsaudio1So what did the OP finally decide on? I own Sutherland which is what I think he was trying to describe. | |
| Phono preamp worth it with MM cartridges? If you have a friendly dealer take the $2k and your P3, and exchange for a P6 with the Ania MC + Sutherland KC Vibe phonostage. THAT will be a very noticeable upgrade to your record collection. | |

| Leave tube amps always on? @hilde45 Thats what I was thinking. How many electrical engineers with qualified expertise have actually weighed in here other than maybe atmas-sphere. | |
| Leave tube amps always on? @1extreme @larryi Thx, super helpful explanation and information. A very knowledgeable forum. | |
| Leave tube amps always on? @1extreme Hi thx for the reply. Do you have an inconsistency in your first paragraph? In the first instance you said tubes don’t consume excess power when turned on, then you follow up with the constant turning on/off shortens tube life. Arent tho... | |
| Charging A Fee To Demo An Amplifier In A Brick & Mortar Store I see zero issue with that assuming the fee is reasonable and can be used towards store credit. Don’t tubes have a finite life? Smart guy. Separates the buyers from the pikers. | |
| Leave tube amps always on? I dont need any more convincing. Mr. Berning’s ZOTL preamp/amp technology is mind blowing performance, like nothing I’ve ever experienced sonically and I don’t want that burn out faster lol. |
