| JBL 4349 or Klipsch Cornwall IV I cant imagine using any horn speaker with a S.S. amp. Granted I think many horn owners are limiting themselves by using low power SET amps. | |
| tube magic with digital source? I mostly agree with miller on this. I have never been able to get emotionally connected with any digital source I have tried. From the outset, it simply isnt there. However I do enjoy digital more with my tubes than with S.S. but the improvement i... | |
| JBL 4349 or Klipsch Cornwall IV If you cant listen to your system for extended periods of time without fatigue then you should look for a different speaker. Not a Klipsch or JBL fan, but my guess is that you could look to modifications on the tweeter with the Klipsch. Have also ... | |
| will changing to solid-state make the bass in my wilson sophias better at low volume? S.S. usually doesnt have good low volume detail which is a area where tubes shine. Odd to me that a speaker would not sound good at low volumes but "better" at higher volumes. | |
| Does it annoy you when companies don't show the internals of electronics ? It is nice to see inside, but not critical. | |
| RCA 6l6GC Tubes RCAs will always have the "stop sign" logo around the 6L6GC designation. However I can think of at least 3 perhaps 4 different internal constructions with the RCA black plates. If you post a photo I can tell you who actually made your tubes. | |
| Now that I have my Tri-planar tone arm, I ask for recommendations for a new cartridge. Mu-Tech Hiyabusa. I use this on my Tri-planar Merrill-Williams setup. | |
| We spend too much time talking about tweeters I think the Wilson inverted domes were terrible tweeters. | |
| New silversmith fidelium cable Well I would say that the Inakustik 4004s certainly do some things better and nothing worse that I can hear. I would give the nod in favor of the Fideliums over the Inakustik 2404 although these are both great cables. I think the Bionics cables (n... | |
| New silversmith fidelium cable I would say that these cables are very good, great at their price point but not the best cables I have heard. Would not hesitate to recommend unless the client was willing the pay the significant increase in price to get to the next tier. | |
| We spend too much time talking about tweeters Not when the tweeters sound like butt! Case in point for me are the older Thiel speakers. | |
| Transducers like ECT from Synergistic Research The real trick is to be able to decide when different isnt actually better. | |
| Herron VTPH-2A or Manley Chinook mk II phonostage lewm,I dont know where you get your information from, but fake Telefunkens and Mullards and relatively rare and nearly impossible to fake correctly. I have never known any fakes that can duplicate the Tele "diamond" or the characteristic internal... | |
| Herron VTPH-2A or Manley Chinook mk II phonostage We just sold a Zesto Audio Andros Deluxe phono stage that replaced a Manley Chinook. This customer said that the Zesto was significantly better in every way. To be far there is a significant difference in retail price. He immediately sold the Chin... | |
| Reasonable but not outragious interconnects My vote is for Analysis Plus. |
