Help with very low noise, SS amp for La Scalas? I have heard about upping up the frequency in the extremes, in the HF section, with tweeters or the bottoms with low cut subwoofers, but never, trying to ameliorate the midrange. Unless you can get a DSP equalizer, I doubt there can be much done f... | |
Scott Nixon outboard DAC's, any good? The 47 Labs Shioaraki transport is the deal to be had and it will be exemplary with the ScottDixon DAC. I am getting the Shigaraki on Monday (delays from Japan due to high demand for Shiga anything in Europe.)PAULPS: I bought the Bel Canto DAC-2.0... | |
How to control volume on an integrated and amp line adapters are useless...since the inception of this post, I got one, did not work as stated, returned it. I sold the xover and gave up in the idea of running a passive pair of subs, with the xover and the extra amp. It is much easier to get a ... | |
Rebuild a Counterpoint SA-100 or start over? A sinking feeling for all those Countepoint owners, but then, why some very experienced Goners like Kublakhan are deeply, knee into Countepoint gear, like the legendary SA-11 or SA-4 preamps, as well as the SA 220? I used to dream about Counterpoi... | |
The last valve pre amp I'll ever need. The Paramount/Statement by First Sound Audio....Very undereviewed, but highly competent offerings by Emmanuel Go. Purely single ended devices, with double independent massively overbuilt power supplies. The latest offerings can be had in silver/pl... | |
Suggestions for the best DAC under 1K No contest, Bel Canto DAC 2.0. Can be had for about $900 used if you are patient. Universally well reviewed, excellent selling potential. I sold my DAC 1.0 in one day, priced right and it held its value pretty well while I used it for about 3 year... | |
WOW, check out these BW Nautilus clone speakers. Anything is doable, that is why B&W makes the original Nautilus, if someone conceived it and perfected it for marketing, than it can be done, at least aesthetically...soundwise, it might be different thinking about all the equipment that B&... | |
SFL-1 Signature: how do you know it's a signature? email SF or Parts Connexion | |
How do you determine how much to spend on speakers If I have 5K, I would spend it directly in the following components:1.5K on a pair of Merlin TSM-Milleniums2K on a sort of integrated, I would vouch for either SS or integrated, the Merlins are efficient so even integrated from 25 Watts Class A wo... | |
Mixing Linn and Rotel products Linn and Rotel are such disparaging brand match up. Rotel are supposedly known for their warmth, but I did hear of a thread complaining about its reliability. Linn, such transparent gear. Have you looked into getting a used Linn amp? Regardless of... | |
Epos M12 Vs. M12.2 If the speakers are too new, you need to wait for the verdict. That is my take. They might not be necessarily very different, except for the designation. PAUL | |
mccormack dna 225 with dynaudio 1.3se I will estimate that it will be a great match. The Adcom will be add a tinge of darkness to the very accurate, but not necessarily cold presentation of the DNA 225, which I own. The DNA has plenty of drive with finesse, something that I think the ... | |
300B which way to go? I vouch for SET 300B amplifiers. Lower wattage, but the midrange is nothing but magic. How it has been well said, you need to have efficient speakers. I myself have an Assemblage 300B Platinum circa 2001 (a DYI division of Sonic Frontiers, before ... | |
First Sound Tube Preamp Owners some help please? I own the Presence Deluxe MKI. All I can say is that it is a utilitarian design, that has been executed properly since its inception. I have used it with a McCormack DNA 225 and also with a Assemblage 300B SET amp with great success. The newer Del... | |
What is your most beautiful component? Any 47 Labs Shigaraki pieces. Some people call it strange, and others, me included, are all over its spotless stainless steel casework, with the perculiar shigaraki ceramic platform, that has not only the function of damping it, but makes it very ... |
