| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? You just made my day. I has spent a small fortune on a pair of Amperex 'pinched waist' 6922's (US) from 1960, which were simply awesome in the FS. I did not sell them with the FS, so now they will have a home in my CAT! | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Rayhall thanks again. I bought a CAT SL-1 Ultimate MK II today. I had been eying it for a long time, so it was time to finally pull the trigger. I'm partial to smooth, lush and midhall performance. Plus David Berning himself likes the CAT with the... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? better yet, ray - sell me your preamp. you dont really need two, do ya? :} | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Hi Rayhall. Excellent description. I may have heard osme of that agressiveness in my FS, but was never able to articulate it as well. I would also say i forgave it because it is such an involving preamp, and did all those other things sooooo very ... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? hi paul. i certainly did see the ad. i have emailed him 3-4 times trying to get basic info (age, condition, seriel #, even a picture), but no replies. From a zero feedback member, it's enough to shy me away. I was drooling at it, though - no doubt | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? good one, Boa2, but i prefer hot sauce, and not that weak Lousisiana stuff, uh-uh, Im talkin some of that Korean make-you-see-God hot sauce on my crow. | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Time for me to eat crow, confess my sins, and otherwise expose my idiotic tendencies: I MISS MY FS PREAMP. Not sure what the hell i was thinking selling it!Maybe I'll get a used one, maybe a paramount, though they're really rare to see. | |
| new at this...which amp? source is a real contributor to your problems. I used to have a $400 denon cdp and it practically killed me. Try a used rega planet. It's worth it. Cables and amps matter as well, but garbage-in, garbage-out! | |
| Can DK design MKII drive the Magenapan MG1.6 well? yes, the water has been well "chummed" now just wait for the dorsal fins to break the surface. | |
| Can DK design MKII drive the Magenapan MG1.6 well? uh oh. | |
| Which is the best solid state poweramp under $9000 Ayve V-1xe should be on your short list as well. | |
| Attention Minneapolis Audiophiles Rade (lateguestnomore) I understand you were only trying to help me out - I hope you didnt think i was appreciative of your offer, becuase I certainly was/am. I just dont have speakers at the moment, like i said in my prior note..... | |
| Attention Minneapolis Audiophiles Round 1 goes (rather handily) to either or both the BAT 31SE and Aesthetix. To be fair, the deHavilland is brand spanking new and has not seen more than 20 mins of play time (though it was powered up for maybe 1-2 days). In jafox's system (CAT sig... | |
| Attention Minneapolis Audiophiles Rade - Thank you so much for the wonderful offer. Right now I dont have speakers yet, so another preamp would not do me much good. Thanks once again! | |
| Attention Minneapolis Audiophiles Update: Thanks for the offer Jeff. I am meeting up with Jafox tonight. He has a BAT 31SE AND an Aesthtix Callisto Signature. We'll spin vinyl on his system and compre the three. I also have tentative plans to hook up with Bob (USblues) to drop the... |
