I need help setting bias
Thanks Detlof, I didn't think the driver tubes could affect an output tubes bias. I can't check the driver tubes, but I can replace them with spares. 
Wisconsin - Anyone interested?
My personal thanks for all the effort you are putting into this, Nanderson. I agree with your thoughts of using our audio interest as a means of leading to other rewarding experiences. Visiting someone who has AvantGarde's in Bayfield or Pipedream... 
Wisconsin - Anyone interested?

Wisconsin - Anyone interested?
Hi Nanderson,That was a very well thought out post. I hope something can materialize. Are you located near Madison? I know of several audiogon traders, who also happen to own some great equipment living in the area. Do you know Grant Samuelson or ... 
Wisconsin - Anyone interested?
Audiogon just notified me of this. I may not be available this time around, but I strongly encourage anyone to see and hear lokil957 system. It has got to be one of the best anywhere. 
Wisconsin - Anyone interested?
I would enjoy participating and get-togethers, but I am not in a position to get involved in any type of formal organization. I strongly encourage others to check out a new site calledaudiocircle.com.There is lots of lively interactive discussion ... 
odyssey amp's how do they compare to others
I had the Stereo Stratos with Symphonic cap upgrade, and thought they sounded excellent. Going to the monoblocks with Symphonic cap upgrade placed them in a whole new league, and now the latest upgrade with Plitron transformer makes them significa...

Review: Lumen White White Flame Speaker
I no longer pay much attention to reviews. In my earlier days, I did rely on reviews from all of the commonly recognized publications, and too often found myself in complete disagreement with the author. Whether the review was based on honest view... 
Review: Lumen White White Flame Speaker
Larry, that was a well written and thoughtful review. Thank you for contributing to Audiogon's member reviews.I'd like to make a suggestion. I can see you are a discriminating listener, and you have wisely chosen tubes as your source equipment. I,... 
ARC VT 200 mkl vs the ARC VT 100 mkll
Your best bet is to visit a dealer who has both. I am a former mkII owner, and I upgraded to a used VT200 at a bargain price, restocked the input/drivers with Amperex, and have found the improvement to be substantial. It's not at all about 3db ext... 
Eidolon, Amati Homage, or Watt?
Great equipment, and great listening space. I once owned the Dunlavy's, and it is a fine speaker. I can certainly handle power and fill a room, but I've since found other speakers to be more refined and less grainy. The Avalon is about as refined ... 
Wisconsin - Anyone interested?
DEFINITELY,Actually, I started this whole idea about a year ago, but I've been neglectful in following through. I'm in Brookfield. I would really like to get the ball rolling again on a loosely knit community network of fellow hobbiests. There can... 
Avalon Eidolon for nearfield listening?
Don't laugh, but for near field listening, which a room your size requires, I have heard nothing better than the Red Rose R3 ($3,500). I did not have the other Red Rose components, but Mark Levinson's complete system for under $10k has been knocki... 
Audio Recession
I concur that these are tough times. The high-end, I believe is impacted more severely when the the stock market, more so than the economy, is in a slump. I can sympathise with dealers. As an audiogon buyer and seller, I have been affected both wa...
