| Looking for tonearm inspiration I would avoid vintage tonearms unless they are extremely inexpensive. | |
| Best 6550 NOS Power Tube for CJ Premier 11a? I think I would explore old stock options for driver tubes, etc. I usually find they have a greater impact than the power tubes. | |
| The Battle between Stiffness And Damping Of The Speaker Enclosures! As is usually the case, I simply cant get through most 6 moons reviews. I will revisit later after a bit as I am very interested in this subject. Thanks for posting. | |
| My #@%$ Cat Destroyed My ARC REF 5SE. Soliciting Suggestions. Cats the other white meat.I dog might do the same or similar but at least they would feel guilty... | |
| Integrated for bi-amping with AtmaSphere MA1s I own an older pair of Ascendo model Ms and although the speaker seems to function very well on amps of between 50 and 100 watts, much higher power really allows this speaker to breathe. I am a huge fan of Atmasphere amps but my concerns mirror yo... | |
| Expanding questions about tubes in a preamp I dont see how anyone could ascribe a commercial interest in this conversation. Actually the number of microphonic tubes one encounters is directly dependent on the number of tubes used over the years and also the sensitivity of the application. A... | |
| Speaker upgrade around 100k retail Yes you are correct, the Lansch speakers I have liked were the smaller models that were not mirror imaged (for want of a better term). Only heard the Alsyvox once at a show but they were very very impressive. | |
| Speaker upgrade around 100k retail AudioMachina makes an active array that is unlike anything I have ever heard. External amplifiers of a completely unique design make this system completely unlike any system in existence. Only speaker to correctly handle amplitude vs. time (key to... | |
| How to judge an amplifier's performance with a "powered-woofer" speaker? I think that the OP brings up a great point in that you dont necessarily get as good an indication of the true amplifier total response with a speaker with a powered woofer. A good scenario would be if you were using an impedance sensitive amplifi... | |
| Expanding questions about tubes in a preamp Which post indicates insecurity? I have sold vacuum tubes on both a retail and wholesale basis for over 20 years so I think it fair to assume that I test more tubes in a day than you do in a year or perhaps over your entire life. Please tell me yo... | |
| Is a Linn Sondek LP12/Lingo/Ekos with a Cirkus update, the last turntable I’ll ever buy? Depends, I think, on which model of Clearaudio. | |
| SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency Put a higher wattage OTL on your LaScalas and see if you feel the same way. Of course the presentation will be much more linear and much less colored which I appreciate and others dont. | |
| Expanding questions about tubes in a preamp Dont listen to wolf he is dead wrong on this one. | |
| SET 45 and their (real) required speaker efficiency From a great deal of experience listening and comparing different amp types on 2 way 12 ohm 96 db speakers I couldnt even live with the output of a parallel single ended 300B amp. Ralph (Atmasphere) is 100% correct in that these amps fool you into... | |
| the air dielectric Tara Labs claims a vacuum dialectric? Sounds next to impossible to implement correctly. Also Inakustik uses a coating which isnt air (as suggested by another member) but it seems a good approach and their cables sound very very good. |
