Roger Miller anyone? I liked it as a kid. Pretty catchy tunes. | |
Do you trust your system? @dain I luckily found a set of equipment and a room setup that if a song is off, it’s likely recorded that way. I trust my system to do a decent job. I wonder do others get to a point where they are more critical of mastering techniques than s... | |
6H30 replacement I am far from a tube expert. But I have a CJ preamp which uses the 6H30P. I have been told that there are no replacements for that tube. So, indeed, if one is available, I'd love to know about it. I've also read that the DR's offer a subtle change... | |
Would you pay more than 25% of MSRP for a used cartridge? +1 @jjss49 Though I am thankful for those who won't buy used cartridges or tubes, etc. BTW isn't a demo also used? | |
Bought powerful/expensive Amp+Speakers but plan to use an old preamp , am I crazy? GTG =. Got to go It may be alright for the time. | |
Your single most significant purchase mistake? Mid to late 80’ s, my Harmon Kardon 730 blew a channel. It was 10 years old, so I bought a Luxman R115 receiver. Specs were great. I even heard it in the store. However,when I got it home a set it up, my first listen was a giant letdown. The bass ... | |
Chinese Cables that sound good @surfmuz I have never heard of any tyrant who has been educated away from his tyrannical ways. Have you?. Likewise I have never heard of an population who have complied their way out of tyranny. I agree that the problem is a big one. But the... | |
Chinese Cables that sound good @surfmuz You seem to be stuck on the past and trying to justify or build upon the wrongs committed rather than the right. This country also fought a civil war to end the practice of slavery. Hundreds of thousands of people died. But instead of ... | |
Chinese Cables that sound good @nyc_ben Amazon is one of them, yikes. Yes, I know. Walmart too. Both have run mom & pop business out. Both are very convenient to me. But I have decided to buy at other stores when possible @surfmuz Lots of nautical channels all ove... | |
Chinese Cables that sound good Okay, so you don’t mind copyright infringement or theft of technology, so how do you feel about slavery? Like most, I have bought Chinese products and will probably buy more, since it is nearly impossible to buy products that aren’t made in China.... | |
Valhalla2 vs Freya+ as a preamp @bivhopkins That really the final test. Let us know how it turns out. | |
Valhalla2 vs Freya+ as a preamp @ Ahhhh My apologies. But I wasn’t all the rough on you was i? But I am kinda straight shooter which throws some. Anyway, your system looks like you have a good start. However it threw me that you had a very inexpensive preamp in with equipme... | |
Adding a third REL subwoofer My system is in the LR so I have to find a "proper WAF" place to setup the 3rd. Those with the swarm setup are sold on it . I'll figure it out sometime soon. Right nowe got my hands full with streaming issues. Ugh | |
Revel F228be- will my amp be enough? 100 wpc amp should adequately drive all but the most any speaker on the market. | |
Valhalla2 vs Freya+ as a preamp @bivhopkins OK so you don't believe that the price of an object is an indicator of its sound? I see a lot of people who expect a $300 piece to sound as good as a $3000. in a world where few stereo shops exist most have to put a system together... |
