| So my wife says to me this morning make a new nameplate and tape it to the unit and then sell the Scott! | |
| Conrad Johnson PV-10L & PV-10A which one better? Neither, the PV-10 is a slow sounding preamp that lacks the frequency extremes, overall I was bored with it. Try the AL 3-A preamp.Happy Listening. | |
| Anyone hear the Audes Orpheus? Impressions? I heard them one time about a year ago, but the actual system they were in sucked. I thought at that time that they represeted a good value if you could get 20-30% off the list price. I would have preferred to buy a different brand used if I could... | |
| What stole your attention from HiFi? Mt10425 God you must be as old as I am! The original song title was In the Garden of Eden"Brianmgrarcom, my buddy just recently found his original Chevelle SS454 that he had sold way back after college and is now in the process of restoring it. Al... | |
| Do i need AC conditioner w/dedicated AC lines? The answer is YES! You need to filter out the dirty AC even with dedicated lines. There are several ways to do it. See the thread I posted a while back and Sean gave a web site address that talks about building a filter (it really works) and then ... | |
| Cal Alpha upgrade The benefit of the Audio Aero is the volume control (not sure if the model 1 had it) so you can by-pass the preamp. With the AL you can swap tubes to find the sound you prefer in your system plus the older ones are a little cheaper then the AA DAC... | |

| ARC LS25 or Pass Labs X1?? The X-1 is one of the best sounding SS preamp that I have heard. I compared it to many tube, SS and passive preamps. That being said, the mid range is not as sweet as a good tube preamp. The X-1 bettered most tube preamps in the dynamics and low e... | |
| Elrod vs electra glide? Cannot help you with the comparison but on my X-250 the Elrod EPS Sig 3 was the best cord that I tried on it. Sold it before the current like of EG cords came out.Happy Listening. | |
| Silly Question...does a transport have a "sound" ? My two cents worth. It is not fair to compare a good mod to a stock unit. There is a guy here in NJ who modified a Pioneer 65 and it sounds out of this world. That being said, in his system we tried six different transports that were not modified ... | |

| Irving Bud Fried has died MebyThanks for the news. I owned a few pairs of his speakes in my lifetime and he was always very nice when I either called him or met with him.Happy Listening Bud, where ever you are! | |
| Need help with tube linestage-SF vs ARC vs Others MthiemeI owned the BAT VK-30 SE and the ARC LS-25 MKII was a better preamp when we compared the two in several systems. The BAT seemed to limit the dynamic flow of the music, like something was limiting the sound. I never heard that when the VK-30... | |
| Need help with tube linestage-SF vs ARC vs Others Mitch21The ARC LS-25 MKII vs the CJ 17 MKI, well the ARC was more detailed in the overall presentation and the CJ a little sweeter sounding with less details and dynamics (more tubish). I would have preferred a preamp that combined both of them. T... |
