| Is there such a thing as a FOREVER DAC/streamer? Yeah the DAC we build. 30 pound separate power supply, 101D direct heated triode tubes, point-to-point wired, V-Capacitors, Audio Note resistors, Nichicon capacitors, AC filter chokes, R2R, etc. Probably not one DAC manufacturer uses any of the ... | |
| What is the “World’s Best Cartridge”? Hands down the Goldbug is the best we have ever heard period. So musical and enjoyable. The Denon cartridge with the wood body is a great deal for the money. Happy Listening. | |
| Cables to settle brightness Soo you want to use cables to place a band-aid on your sound. Interesting. | |
| Used gear prices and the state of the hobby. I sometimes will offer a 30-90 warranty on my used gear but I do require the option to repair the unit first and I do not pay for the shipping to and from costs if it ever comes to that. You should pay what you want to for anything new or used so ... | |
| Yg carmel 2 owners It all depends on the amplifiers used. We have heard them with Mola-Mola amps and our Class A tube amps. The tube amps had deeper bass. They are not bright sounding with the correct components. Happy Listening. | |
| Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising? As a manufacturer, each tube has a different sound 6922/6DJ8 - 6SN7 - 101D - etc. We designed a preamp where you could change output resistors from metal, carbon, etc., etc,. It actually was an easy way to change the sound based on the recording... | |
| binding posts It is easy to experiment with jumpers even cheap Home Depot wire just to see if you hear any differences. While you may get a slightly better sound by experimenting, you would be better off finding the right speaker cable for your system. Ha... | |
| Franco Serbin Accordos after one month..... Obviously they look like the Sonus. If any of you are in the NYC area our Listening Room in Northern New Jersey we have the Sonus Faber Strats that you are welcome to come listen to. While having emotion in sound is one of the things we also ... | |
| Speaker cable Just make your own speakers cables there are plenty of formulas to try. BTW most manufactures use Mogami wire anyway. | |
| Which Transport or CD Player? You can also look at the old Marantz CD-94 and Metronome CDPs to use as transports. I really liked the Pro-Ject but a friend borrowed it and has not returned it. Hard to get one now. I'll probably get an old top of the line CEC and upgrade it ... | |
| Preamps can color sound considerably. Surprising? Hard to understand what you are saying without knowing the preamps you listened to. I have no idea what each designer was trying to accomplish unless I can see their designs. As a manufacturer, it is not as simple as designing a product that rep... | |
| Phono Stage Upgrade Circuit boards not my preference. | |
| This is purely subjective opinion. Aqua LaScala/ Atma-Sphere Class D @hilde-45 my opinions are simply the ones you should believe always! LOL And yes they all are until proven otherwise. I did like what you said! | |
| Best DACs under $7,000.00 If you are in the Tri-state area contact us for a demonstration on DACs, etc. I think you will find things are not equal in DAC land. | |
| Choke power supply- part 2 We use chokes in our designs more expensive well yes a resister can cost $0.99. I have seen preamps that use a resistor to stabilize power. But the average person here does not have a clue. |
