PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread
@ampus,   Message received. I want to follow up, but add some of my information regarding experiences with the Psvane T series Mark II and Reference series. The reference series are gold plated pins with gold etching on the glass compared to the... 
Half-Speed Masters - are they worth double dipping?
@cleeds, Generally speaking, Your impressions are very similar to my listening experiences as well when comparing both streaming and vinyl. The main difference to me is that when a half speed mastered produced album has been treated with all of t... 
PSVANE Discussion & Impressions Thread
Is there a webpage that differentiates the differences across all series of Psvane tubes? I am sure there are a lot of people interested in what the new series has and why is it better than the any previous series that it’s replacing. If if is not... 
Ebay selling my missing amplifier
Contact the shipper, USPS, DHL, FEDEX, UPS and open up an investigation. I know USPS has an investigation team that deep dives this stuff in coordination with the FBI due to the criminal elements being involved.   
Changing from European to American power supply on clearaudio emotion TT
Not sure about the specific Clearaudio model you have but sometimes there is a way to change the voltage internally on turntables. If you have the means to open the underside or wherever you can gain access to the motor area, you might get lucky a... 
McIntosh MI502
The post could fit here as that amp is being sold as a home theater amp. I just got one at the beginning of the year for my 2 18” klipsch subwoofers. The amps are able to feed adequate power to those giant subwoofers allowing for deep bass. My sub... 
Audiophile frame of mind
@dhite71    Very good observations. That was my intent in obtaining my next grill, lifelong, or as long as that grill will last. We were planning our retirement house and I conducted extensive research. In our previous house, we had a built in o... 
Audiophile frame of mind
@grislybutter   I had a Home Depot grill, not a Weber, but it was a workhorse. It started rusting and was bent in some areas due to various moves. One night the brother in law and I were grilling and we were not paying close attention. Both of ... 
Audiophile frame of mind
Why not look at the American Muscle Grill (AMG), now American Made Grills. I bought a store model a few years ago. This is a workhorse. It’s all stainless steel and the kicker is that it is endorsed by Sylvester Stallone, LOL. You can find deals i... 
PS Audio Power regenerator
There are some details missing from your question. Are your amps 600 watts each? If so, then you need to plug them straight into the wall unless you have PS AUDIO P15, at a minimum, or a P20 for optimal power availability to the amps. If your amps... 
Should Speaker Manufactures provide a Frequency Response Graph?
@mijostyn  ”The amplitude response of a speaker is a moving target. It will change depending on the room. There are also other factors that play a significant role in audio fidelity like phase behavior and group delays. I do not pay attention to ... 
Geddes multiple subwoofer method - 3 subs vice 4
"I will always disagree with using the main subs without a high pass filter as being universally better, especially with smaller mains." That may be true for small speakers. I guess my giant mains with aforementioned 18" and 15" bass drivers don’... 
300b lovers
@lynn_olson    “Ralph, I see you introduced a PP 300B amplifier at one of the recent hifi shows. How do you think it compares to your Class D amplifier, in subjective terms? Since you designed both, you're the best qualified to assess the differ... 
300b lovers
@donsachs    I tried to post a new link but it gets blocked. You have to Google Soundstage SOUTHWEST Texas audio show. Not sure why the link gets blocked, weird. Use atmaspehere 300b prototype in search string.   
300b lovers
Did anyone who went to the Texas audio show hear the 300B amps in the Classic Audio Loudspeaker room? They were powering a set of field coil speakers. I believe they were prototypes of Atmasphere 300b amps.   https://www.facebook.com/story.php/?...
