| TACT 2.2X As Preamp? Or Run Thru BAT? Thank you all for your very helpful replies. I forgot to say that I listen to a lot of LP's as well, so would need to use the A to D module. I will get a chance to have a live demo in my system, and will also have proper sound measurements done to... | |
| CJ Premier 5's - Opinions? Thanks, guys. The 8XS are well out of reach right now, and not available at the only hi fi dealer in town (Caracas, Venezuela these days). He does sell Red Rose gear, but $ 25 K for monoblocks is even more obscene than than Prem 8's - Mark has alw... | |

| Need help with new 11X 13 dedicated Listening Room Had a very similar room..perhaps a foot larger in length and width. After a couple of months of trials (using the more traditional Cardas method for speaker positiong and the RPG software), I settled on LONG WALL speaker placement following the Au... | |

I am now using the RPG "Studio in a Box" which inlcudes thick, wedge shaped pieces for the corners, large panels for absorption... | |
| What's it worth if you sold it today? I think the best approach is to purchase second hand or demo items. Other than my analog front end, everythimg in my syste was purchased second hand or demo, and I think I would pretty much get what I paid for it (e.g., I paid $ 4800 for my Guarne... | |
| Balanced cable for a BAT vk3 - recommendations? If you are considering the AQ Amazon, look also for AQ Diamond X3 or (if you can find it) AQ Diamond Extreme. Pretty close to the Amazon, and pretty "reasonably" priced in the second hand market. I use AQ Diamond X3 in my system, which is built ar... | |
| Home Theater Neophyte-Speaker Recommendations? CharlesMany thanks for the excellent suggestions. My two channel audio system has grown to be a monster with a retail price somewhere north of $ 50 000 (although other than the analog front end and subwoofer, I've baought all of it from my generou... | |
| Tubed Amp Troubleshooting Well, so far I've had no more problems (after putting in new power tubes). The amps are Aronov 9100, each with 4 KT 88 tubes. The old tubes were about 18 months old, but had quie a few hours on them since I've burned in 2 pairs of speaker cables a... | |
| Tubed Amp Troubleshooting Well, it seems like it was the power tubes. Anew quad of KT 88's seems to have taken care of it. For further referecne, the problem was present with both analog and digital sources (each going into different input of the preamp via different cable... |
