| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Hi Pat. Amazing thread here. All these wonderful people understand what's important in life, and that it could easily be any of us in your predicament. As a physician (radiologist), unfortunately i see really ugly things all the time. I have to ca... | |

| Berning ZH270 - Wiring Upgrade If you go the AA route, you should spendf the extra for the SE version, which adds cryo'd tubes and upgrades the key capacitors. As I said, there is slight drop of in "goose-bump factor", but only slight, and I'm hoping it will continue to narrow ... | |
| Berning ZH270 - Wiring Upgrade Having packed up the preamp for shipment, I'm now sans preamp, and I'm starting to really like what I hear. Allan B, who sells /upgrades the Berning had told me that with the rest of my system being what it was, that a fully modded (i.e., wiring a... | |
| Berning ZH270 - Wiring Upgrade it's been burning about 3 days now - starting to really open up, though the bass is still not where I expect it to be (I hear that takes 2-3 weeks). Even so, I'm starting to really appreciate it as it breaks in! More detailed info once it's furthe... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? Of course you are correct. In my opinion, to my ears, in my system I dont think the source, cables or amplification is going to change for a long long time, unless I win the lottery, so i'll continue my binge buying/listening on the preamp side of... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? and yes, i spode with emmanuel about sending in my FS for upgrades, and he was totally supportive. After all, I am not turning my back on his preamp by any means, but generally speaking, the FS was an extended audition for me. I love it, but want ... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? well i didnt say the background was not quiet (or that it was "noisy" - it aint), or that there were no dynamics, but if you ask emmanuel himself what the upgraded versions of his preamps deliver - he will tell you quieter performance, better inne... | |
| What can you tell me about First Sound pre-amps? It must come as no surprise, but my system is in flux again.I sold the First Sound, and may end up with the FS Paramount - but not 100% certain.

| Amplifier for Sonus Faber Guarneri Homage I use an OTL tubed amp with my Guarneri's to wonderful effect. It's a very unique design that i could not do justice to hear, just suffice it to say it only has 10 tubes total (only 4 output tubes), and runs only as hot as a light bulb; oh, and it... |
