| Wolcott amps The best tube amps? Hello Dan2112, and others. The Wolcotts are extremely good, I have owned two pair of VERY expensive mono block amps just before this pair arrived. By comparison, these are a bargain! Unfortunately, for the final word on ultimate performance, I nee... | |
| Best Preamp under 10K I agree with Gerrym5, and his comments about the Aesthetix. I've owned the Aesthetix IO (phono stage) for a good while, and just recently purchased the Callisto (line stage). the Aesthetix line stage is the best preamp I have ever heard, and I hav... | |
| Help LP playback is lacking Snook2, I just got my Wolcott amps yesterday, and notice a lack in bass on both the LP and CD. Obviously, mine are not broken in yet, so lets skip that as a problem until I know more. My Wolcotts have already had three sets of input tubes, and one... | |
| Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge Regarding "taking the Pepsi Challenge", I logged on to the Pepsi web site, and cannot find where they actually market a Upsampling DAC of any kind. Thinking Gthirteen confused Pepsi with Coca Cola, I visited Coke's site too....still no DAC's. Are ... | |
| Rowland 7 monoblocks These guys answering you are in agreement with my experience. If I were to buy transistors (I am a tube guy) Roland and Gryphon (Sweden, now no longer imported) are two of the only amps at the state of the art end of the price scale that I would c... | |
| Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge I am not Carl, and I do not disagree with your comments about LP. having a high frequency roll off. Perhaps it is the RIAA, or perhaps a flaw in the original design of the LP format (it is quite old). However, the roll off in the extreme highs is ... | |

| Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge Gmkane. I appreciate your answer, I have copied and pasted the part of your statement that I ABSOLUTELY agree with: Suppose you have the best audio gear that money can buy - either analog or digital. I think analog offers the best state of the art... | |
| Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge Gmkane, I have been reading this thread since it began, and made no comments, as I really cannot contribute. I do have a question though. In the CURRENT state of high end, home (two channel) audio, does the ULTIMATE digital transport, D to A, etc.... | |
| "hey throat" from a live rock concert I'm not a Metallica fan, but you can cure the raspy voice, at least temporarily by doing what Robert Plant did when his voice gave out.....suck on a lemon. The astringent qualities will revive the vocal cords, at least enough to call in to work an... | |
| Mark Levinson 331 or McCormack .5 Rev. A For what it is worth, I agree with Garfish (Craig). There are two new reviews this week on Steve's amps that I think are worth reading. I am providing the links below: http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0800/dna125.htm http://www.ster... | |
| My speaker makes noise ? NEVER UNLOCK YOUR CAPS KEY, THE TYPE IS BIGGER AND....."YOUL" GET LONGER LIFE FROM YOUR POSTING! | |
| What the heck is Resolution Audio Nedlabs_stereo, I would like to point out that the "caps lock" is depressed on your keyboard. 384523 is what you meant to type where those silly #*$%@# appear. Also, it makes your statements look silly, as there are no lower case. Glad I could hel... | |

| Telefunken Record Label David, I don't know the answer to your question, but I'll bet I can guess what brand of tubes they used when they recorded this. Hint, they were not Sovtek. |
