| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. Oh, Kevsiak, if you do buy some equipment, I think we would all be interested in your reactions. | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. Well, I don't know about a spanking - remember, I did invite you both to contact me off this forum, which you chose not to do - so, I'll just leave you to your Apogees. Which, again, I consider nice speakers and am glad that you have found your ni... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. On 6chac: this is what happens when someone reads too many books on "Zen". Actually, glad you are having fun, just clean up after you get out of the sandbox and go home for supper.On Muralman: what, if I note the materialistic bias in your stateme... | |
| Advice on an upgrade 1. Get a Supratek Chardonney line stage (sse thread here under "Preamp deal of the century" for $2200. Don't even think about it, just do it.2. VAC 70/70 - nice piece (Mk I,II or III?). But remember, you are stuck with the VAC-distributed Chinese ... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. 6chac:1.Where one can not say, it is best to remain silent. That seems to have escaped your long response, all the while you claim that one can not say. That is delusiuonal, or if volitional, inauthentic.2. There is a difference between claiming t... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. "Cleanest", "silky clean", qualities of space to be measured "technically" only in terms of diminishing distortion...yes, if these are the values you adhere to, or your bias in seeing sound, then follow Muralman and get a SS amp...But, I believe t... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. Mural, just re-read my post and sounds a bit snotty to you. That's not how I meant it, just tired with a bad cold today and too tired to re-do it. | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. 6chac, don't be a pest. If you have an opinion that is contrary to someone else's, state it with reasons. When you just say someone is wrong, over and over, it just makes me think you don't know why but want to make us think that you do, as if dis... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. Kevziek, I'm glad that we all (er, mostly me...) didn't scare you off your own thread!On transients, yes, I couldn't say it any better. That's exactly it. I only used "dryness" because I didn't want to go into too much description when I was using... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. Zaike, yes, kill the Buddha if you see him on the road, to Damascus or anywhere else, so to speak. Objectively, with the active mind, you can only know a fraction of it, one fraction at a time (or through putting the fractions back together). Subj... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. 6chac: Run, but not before you too, say something? Maybe I just didn't get it (although I liked it). Were you refering to the fact that this thread seems to be highjacked and there is no hope and, God, please, no more, and...Whatever the reference... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. You know, I know that I can shoot the wind with the best of them, but having dialogue, at all varying levels of (so-called) cognitive sophistication, is good. I try not to obfuscate, but realize that there are also some people out there who will c... | |
| Speaker priority: high or low??? It really depends on where you are in your system evolution. If a person is just starting out, then money loaded into speakers encourages him/her the most, because where that person is at, that expenditure is usually seen as 1) economically justif... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. Jetter, I wrote that when I was drunk! Sincerest apologies. I regret every word, just ignore it. Oh my God, what will happen to us if we read such things!!Pass another cold one... | |
| Tubes Do It -- Transistors Don't. On Pass. I like it: had a 30 for about a year, and have recommended it to some people in the past. Ono was nice, etc. and were very similar in sound. Like it more than almost all other SS.Yes, the SE topology, assuming that's the factor, does make... |
