| Tonearm Lead Just a guess but I would say it depends on the quality of your TT setup. | |
| Should I replace ARC D130 for Bryston 4B-ST? In most all systems a great pre is always better than going straight to the amp with a cd player's volume control. Then think about whatever amp. | |
| Whats better then PS Audio P300? ? ? ? ? Me three on the AM Stealth; got 2 of 'em. | |
| Is it important to match amps for LCR speakers? I use different amps for all the channels. I'm a 2ch guy and the mis match doesn't bother me in the slightest. HT is great for me this way. I just don't critique it as others do;I just enjoy. | |
| EL34 comparisons please I have 2 sets of CJ m.blocks.The 5s and the 8xs (Both all triode)I use and love the Seimens. I have a new set of Svets---they ain't the same for sure. Other than the fact that I'm talking about 32 of them el34s I would try some Mullards.----But ev... | |
| Sonic Frontiers Power 2 or ARC VT-100 MKII??? Sorry;I just enjoy offending as many people as possible at one time. Charming isn't my long suit. When you put this 'other' amp in the trash----use a plain brown wrapper and make sure you do this in the middle of the night, so as not to be seen by... | |
| Calibrating New Pioneer Plasma I find put each item on repeat and do the best you can. One of the best things is the simpte colorbars---black and white boxes--Pluge tests--You know make the grey just barely visable next to the black bar.---It will be harder with a plasma entry ... | |
| Wadia 270se/27ix or DCS Purcell / Delius Combo? Get the A M Enkainthus One or mk two and don't bother with the Purcell.(OR the Delius) Less money to begin with---one less ic and box. Nevermind the one less box;it's the sound.----You'll see I'm right. | |
| Best Kept Secret in Audio?? SShh !!(or it ain't a secret) --- For us working stiffs, it's hard to have heard 1% of what's out there. | |
| Sonic Frontiers Power 2 or ARC VT-100 MKII??? Yo,Peter Get a Sf2-- spend big buck on Gold Lion kt88s and put the AR in the trash can. Geo. | |
| What is the best Beatle Song I'm like most everybody---couldn't possibly pick just 1, or 10. For me some songs are just the music some are the arrangement and harmony and some the instrumentation.Many George songs are amongst my favs. I think Long Long started that and it has... | |
| Counterpoint SA-5000 or First Sound Presence Pre Mphnkns: I think what you said is pretty much what everybody believes.--Which is the very reason we all do this hobby. Also;I can't imagine a system in which the 5000 will sound more like actual music---unless the FS is broken. I own one /just the... | |
| speaker recommendation I think "The Usual Suspects"---PSB /NHT/ The budget B&Ws Atlantic Tech. ---too many to name. | |
| Mccormack preamps I have owned an ADL for a while,and for what I paid it is pretty good. Has remote which are good for us lazy types. I use it with another bargan: White Audio Labs amp.--- No I haven't compaired this combo to anything in it's class, but as they say... | |
| Would this amp/pre amp paring work? Not to knock the receiver because it does a decent job at HT on a small scale; but a 2 ch. pre, and any decent amp will get you further on up the road. Maybe a McMcormace ADL or similar. It has the HT pass-thru. Then say a DNA 05---a '1', will do ... |
