| Is it time for a phono stage? We make a full function preamp, the UV-1, that falls in this price range... | |
| "Audio Gone" question for Audiogon experts OK. Next is to find out if the one channel is fading, or if the other is getting louder.I've seen feedback resistors fail before, so getting louder is something that should be checked out. | |
| Love / Hate relationship with vinyl? Another thing to consider is that SUTs are not as cartridge-specific as you may have thought. The loading of the transformer with a given cartridge at the input *is* however.If you get a Jensen SUT (which are some of the best made, price no object... | |
| "Audio Gone" question for Audiogon experts Does this occur on all functions? | |
| Phono cartridge for classic rock There is no such thing as a cartridge or arm that is better at rock than anything else. That is a myth plain and simple. Electronics (including speakers) don't have taste and can't tell what music you are playing through it.In short if its really ... | |
| In Memoriam: Bobby Palkovich of Merlin Music Really sorry to hear this! Bobby has always treated me and our customers with 110%. Its hard to imagine he's gone... | |
| Passive & Tubed pre-amps to power amp at same time? More so on the output side than the input, but they are sensitive to the input side as well. As a general rule of thumb keep the cables short! | |
| Primaluna & Klipsch Cornwall frustration HELP If the amp has not been played much, it may also need some break-in time. Filter capacitors don't like to sit around discharged; its best for them to be played and as they are played they get more efficient. As this happens, they become more effec... | |
| Primaluna & Klipsch Cornwall frustration HELP OK- in review, here are the things you need to try:1) try a different tap (4 ohm)Notes: the speaker is nominally 8 ohms and likely has a nice impedance bump in the low end that might help your amp out. Any notion that this amp cannot control the w... | |
| amplification for devore fidelity nines ? The Devores have been always been quite tube-friendly, but despite their efficiency, it does seem as if they benefit from having some power- but it had better be some power with finesse. Our customers have been using our M-60 with that speaker and... | |
| Would adding a pre back into the system eliminate I've seen passives exhibit glare in the past- usually some sort of interaction with something else in the system. Passives are very sensitive to cables- much more so than preamps; as others have suggested it appears that you answered your own ques... | |
| Passive & Tubed pre-amps to power amp at same time? PlanB: place the passive between the CDP and the preamp input.Adjust to suit, but keep your cables short as passives have been shown to be quite sensitive to cables! | |
| Output level inexplicably reduced- help Does this problem show up on all functions or only phono? | |
| Soundlab speakers...how reliable? If you picked up some used Sound Labs, check with Sound Lab about the new backpanels. They make the speaker a lot easier to drive and also sound better too! | |
