Speaker Choices for Tube Amps Kkursula, I agree 100% with your reply. I wanted to get some amp/speaker ideas first since I live in the NYC area I have access to audition equipment and amps. I could have been more specific but I just wanted to get an initial reposnse.If you wan... | |
Speaker Choices for Tube Amps How about the larger speakers like the Total Eclipse or the Sonata III or La Folia. Can I drive them with 50 wpc?Thanks | |
How many hours need a new B&W 802 to play good. 200-400 hours | |
Vote best of these 7 CDP's I vote for using a DAC instead. I have been comparing CDPs and DACs over the past several weeks and I was auditioining the newer models. The Electrocompaniet DAC sounded clearer, more detailed and thru a wider soundstage than the Mephisto II.X. Th... | |
Speaker suggestions? Silverline Audio and Meadowlark are also very good prices and especially since they have new models coming out, the old ones are being sold pretty cheap.Happy Listening. | |
pre-amp that's balanced with remote volume control I think the Aesthetix is called the Calypso. I had the BAT VK-30SE preamp and it sounded similiar to SS. I have not heard the 31SE version.Happy Listening. | |
Compare Electrocompaniet DAC to Bel Canto? The Electro has more details and thru a wider soundstage (one of the widest I hvae herad).Happy Listening. | |
Tube DACs As an update, I have listened to the Wavelength and Audio Logic tube DACs. The AL is not a typical tube type of sound becasue it does not add the fuller/thicker mid range that I normally associated with tubes. It is extremely natural sounding, ver... | |
Is solid state on the brink of extinction? I agree with Tubegroover. I had the Spectron Musician II power amp and it was a very clear sounding amp. Clearer than my Pass Labs X-250 in my system but I did not really connect with the music. In fact my Kinergetics KBA-75 was more musical. The ... | |
warmer pre-amp for Adcom GFA 555II What is your source? | |
Coincident Total Eclipse vs. Von Schweikert VR 4 I heard the VR-4SEs with a Vac Std 105 amp and it was not enough juice to handle the bass. From there up the sound was very nice but no bass.Happy Listening. | |
Active Dampers Hey, what drug do you use? We just got a cat today so I may try it! My wife says a padded bra may also work!Happy Listening and keep the fur from flying! | |
Tube DACs Rcprince I am getting the AL DAC (newest version) in a day or so. I am also getting the Wavelength Tube DAC to compare. If you want I can maybe swing by over the weekend with the Wavelength if you want, it has to go back sometime Sunday unless I b... | |
Tube DACs Jeffcott, I have been to Rcprinces home and heard the AL DAC and I will probably get one this week to hear in my system versus the Electrocompaniet DAC. I also want to hear the Audio Aero DAC to compare and I am trying to locate one or an audition... | |
Who has a modified Shanling CD-T100? He had pretty much the Level One Plus (+) with better parts put in. I have done some comparisons and I prefereed it to some other the other highly rated CDPs at double the price. Even the SS output sounded pretty good, it was real close with the t... |
