| MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em Crusty, I know what you mean - I had a Defy I long ago, but with custom transformers (from Jadis too, during their development of Mk IV's that turned out too be expensive for production, so I snarfed it up).But I've got something for ya, now step ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Walter, you are dead on. The stock tubes are matched and balanced to each other very nice, but its hard to look back once you put some KenRad black 6SN7's in there. I've got 4 matched pairs, all primo NOS's in original boxes and they vary on noise... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Kill Jung!! Kill Jung!! Or, maybe not... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck detlof: yea, I know, part of me wants to say, yea, he did, then another part says, nah. Stable is usually pretty obvious, although I would suppose that Victorian remnants/attachments were a real bug to get past back then - big conformist pull of t... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck I know, Unsound. I was just joshin' ya. But its still there, you're still here! Run for your lives, its the thread that ate Detroit!! My condolences...Hey, SO, cable IS a component, even with Muralman's Apogees, even though he's not sure, and yes,... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Yes, paradox. Did he see it, merely touch it and tell others, or live within it, comfortably, stably? At the end of the power of the thinking mind is paradox of mind; as paradox is lived within, reality reveals, in the case of Jung most famously, ... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Just get the standard.....it is what it is, not a Levinson. That's the lesson. Bwhite, how is the phono going? Etthan's too? Haven't heard either of you say, so thought it might have been disappointing over long haul, although hope not. | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Where is Muralman?!! I must be loosing my touch...Unsound, yes, incidious, it must be stopped, stone the witch(es). Yea, BTW, isn't that a cable hanging loosley around your neck, you know, lookin' kinda like a noose? :)Gregm: interesting point, th... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck I know what Carl J. would say about "Muralman and me" (soon to be a major motion picture directed by Michael Moore): heys youz, lighten up on the mining of the bad guy archetype! Hey, detlof, a question: is the devil archetype embedded in the "sub... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Hey, hand 'em over!! No really, isn't it somewhat entertaining while we wait to see if this thread will resusitate? I don't think Muralman's ego-skin is pierced too much by me, that's someone/something else's job, not mine. Its just when someone g... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Muralman, don't say nasty personalized things to people that you are afraid to be heard. If you talk with different degrees of nicety depending upon your audience vs. anonymity, well, we're back to that self-reflection thing again. I told you, giv... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Psych:Yes, just based upon construction costs, but a capitalistic system is based upon supply and demand dynamics; the system should be based upon cost IMHO, and competition forces should drive prices down, but with "unique" products cost of const... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Psych, well now, that is a different consideration, one of pragmaticism and relativity. If a wire is "extruded" - and I take you to mean that because it is less complex in its manufacture then it should be priced less - then what of the situation ... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Oh come on Muralaman. I come in this morning and nothing. You say you want "Peace" - which was nice - said you'd thank me if I listed my system publicly and then contacted you - which I did, and nicely, notwithstanding that I'd invited you to cont... | |
| Cable vs. Electronics: biggest bang for the buck Muralman, yes, wrong. A Coda high current SS amp (what vintage, the one designed for the Legacy, as old as the Spendors, not that it makes much difference?), Nordost IC's (assumably the SPM's, some of the most denuded upper mid IC's around), and s... |
