| Octave Audio amplifiers Love the Octave's! I have owned a range of Octave products including integrated, preamp, monoblocks, as well as Phonomodule. I compared my Octave V110 against my friend's CJ preamp and monoblock combo and the V110 simply blew the CJ out of the ... | |
| Should I really, really buy a Berkeley Reference DAC...Testify! There are a lot of great and cheaper DAC's that you can buy now a day.

| Tube rolling experts!!! I have tried Siemens Cca, Siemens E88CC A frame, Tungsram E88CC, Mullard E88CC Parasol Getter, Tungsram 7DJ8, and Phillips Miniwatt SQ (made in England) in my Modwright Elyse. I like the Phillips the best, great midrange, great base response, and... | |

| Transrotor turntables I have a Transrotor Rondino. The only problem that I have is the belt noise upon starting. Once the platter gets going, it is completely silent. Transrotor tables are pieces of art. | |
| Move to tubes: Ayon Crossfire or Triton, various Check out Octave. Very musical and built like a tank. | |

| AQ Earth interconnects..echo? I have Earth interconnects in XLR and RCA configurations. Not a single problem. Very happy with them. | |
| Why do no audio enthusiasts use McIntosh? Audioquest4life, how does your Octave Jubilee preamp and McIntosh 2301 combo sound compared to the Jubilee preamp and Jubilee mono's combo that you heard in Germany?Thanks! | |
| Your most disappointing purchase or audition? Parasound CD1. I had high expectation for the Parasound, but my cheaper Emotiva ERC-3 sounded better! | |
