| What preamp are you using with Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP amp? I’ll go ahead and mention what I have used to date. I bought the Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP amp a couple of weeks ago. Since I didn’t have a dedicated preamp at the time I used the preamp outputs of my Yamaha AS3000 integrated amp. Sounded very... | |
| Really...My favorite power tube is reissue that's not widely popular Thanks for the heads up on this. What’s your opinion of the TS 7581A over a typical EL34? In other words what’s the 34 not doing as well as the 7581A? Thanks! | |

| Tidal not working on mac mini 1967, I’m having the same issue with mconnect accessing tidal on my ps audio Directstream jr. I have the mconnect app on my iPad and iPod and has worked fine until today. Now tidal keeps asking me to log in with no success. | |
| Can You Identify My Mystery Planar Speakers? I'm going to venture a guess and say Soundlab Dynastats. | |
| Notable very small loudspeaker companies (other than Tekton!) +2 for Tyler Acoustics@twoleftears It’s been too long since I’ve listened to Dunlavys to compare, but the Tyler D2’s I owned were very open and clear sounding. Maybe not the deepest bass but top to bottom a great coherent speaker. I thought the pr... | |
| PS Audio Direct Stream JR I’ve had my Jr for about a year now and tried it as a preamp a couple of months ago just to experiment. I typically use it as a D/A only into my Yamaha AS3000 integrated amp via balanced connection. Using the Jr’s preamp function I have to connect... | |
| Axpona 2018 laserjock1963I listened to the Revel F228be but I can’t give you too much info other than really liking them. Though not huge speakers I was sort of expecting them to overpower the room when I first walked in (why I thought that I have no idea) bu... | |
| Axpona 2018 This was my second year at Axpona and my buddy and I had a great time. Some of the brands I didn’t care for last year I thought sounded great this year. For example, last year I did not care for the MBL room but I was blown away this year. It soun... | |
| MQA•Foolish New Algorithm? Vote! @jon2020 “So you are comparing MQA 96 to non-MQA 44.1? A more valid comparison would be between MQA 96 and non-MQA 96 PCM.”Why? I’m looking for an improvement over cd quality streaming. I agree that MQA may not be the equal of high resolution down... | |
| MQA•Foolish New Algorithm? Vote! Ptss - When I read your questions it sounds like your asking about the "intent" of the format, not whether it sounds better or not. So to answer what I read as the intent of your questions: Yes, I do think MQA is a processing algorithm that was cr... | |
| When you suddenly realize.... Agreed! Access to essentially unlimited content is fantastic. Sitting here right now listening to music I probably would never have discovered otherwise. | |
| Throughly disappointed with my new Yamaha A-3000 Integrated....... Dave,The top plate of my AS300 will be warm but never really beyond that. All the speakers I have used with it have been fairly easy loads in the 6 to 8 ohm range and 88 to 91 db efficient.Don | |
| Budget American made speakers? +1 for Tyler Acoustics. Great speakers and Ty is a great guy. | |
| looking for a new pre/amp or integrated amp As mentioned previously your best bet may be going with a home theatre receiver. Granted you won't need all the channels of amplification but they can meet your other requirements. Yamaha RXA3070 fits the bill on just about everything you're looki... |
