| Integrated Amp recommendations for Avantgarde Uno What about a Pathos Twin Towers? or the latest model, the TT? It is an absolutely gorgeous piece of equipment, it has tube pre stage and is Class A, 35 watts of power to drive you into heaven! Remote is also included. Around 2-3K used. There is on... | |
| amplifiers for Kappa 9's Gmood, I do not dispute your info on the Carvers, but then, why isn't there a Kappa 9 owner out there that is driving these ampeaters with the latest holy grail in audio amplification? I trust that these owners have been experimenting with older S... | |
| amplifiers for Kappa 9's Unless you get an amp that can provide massive amperage, you will fry your Kappas. The best seem to be old Aragons, I think the 4004 or was it the 8008BB, my memory fails....they were designed by Krell. They continue doubling down to less than 1 o... | |
| Sonic Frontiers to Conrad Johnson . Hell, want to experiment with the lushness and see if you actually like the CJ sound? Get the affordable tubed preamp from them, the PV10 should you wish, and play with it. Then, when you are sure, get the bigger, larger, badder brother up the lin... | |
| Plinius or YBA Passion. Your speakers are sensitive enough and what is the use of so much power, get less and get more refinement. It seems like the Passions are up there with the best, you see how they are paired with the best gear out there, there is someone w... | |
| How Long do LP's last I have LPs that were pressed around 1905, they seem to be physically perfect. Still, guess they have not too much play time. Say that about the latest CDs.....the worst annoyance of CD is in their fragility. Skip tracking etc. Though CDs are very ... | |
| Suggestion for Amp with 2 sets of spk terminals Yes, the Belles 150 or an older OCM 100-200 will fit your requirement nicely....though the OCM cosmetics are sort of early 90s, if you know what I mean. The sonics are unquestionable. | |
| Suggestion for Amp with 2 sets of spk terminals Let me be clear, you leave the VAC on 24 hours a day or you want your new amp to do this? A good used choice would be the older Belles designed OCM 200 amps, that can be had for a song and sound, reportedly, very decent, almost Class A like. No se... | |
| single driver loudspeakers AmandaRae, noticed you got a speaker set up from Bob Brines, can you comment on the sound, the lows please? | |
| single driver loudspeakers AmandaRae, the first photo looks like one of King's designs. Bob Brines used much of King's theory in order to build his speakers. The second post, the ones with the supertweeter, those are the Ft2000A. The scarcity of the F200As make them limited... | |
| single driver loudspeakers I have a pair of Fostex 208 Sigmas in Zhorn backloaded cabinets. They are unbelievably quick and exciting, but as it is well said, they are also very demanding in the type of watts you feed them. I have tried my set up with Op amp powered solid st... | |
| Considering a 'new' 200w amp. MF, krell or? Forget about the KAV amps from Krell, the KSA 100 or KSA 150, 200, from back in 1991 ran all class A and they are the ones that you want and not the newer KAV, which are considered terrible. An used KSA 200 will fetch easily 2.5K but they go fast. | |
| Amp Help for an amature The DNA 125 paired with some sort of tubed preamp down the road would serve you well for a long time to come. If you do not have funds for the preamp, and just want to have one source, get a pair of Ultimate Attenuators to attach to the DNA 125 an... | |
| amp for infiinity kappa 9 BTW, when I once had a pair of BC-2, Blue Circle Class A 75 watt monoblocks, eventhough they put out just 75 watts, the designer had recommended their own dedicated 20 amp line...which obviously I did not do. I was feeding things from a huge tube ... | |
| amp for infiinity kappa 9 Do not unload them until you can get a hold of a Aragon 8008BB. Affordable and will provide you with the bass you might crave and are missing now. |
