| Eric Clapton reveals this week of his declining health @cfjl1 There are many great guitarists who have never reached Mr. Claptons level of fame. I live near DC, which spawned some of the best: Roy Buchanan, Danny Gatton, (both deceased-seen them both), Link Wray, Tom Principato (still performing). Th... | |
| Tekton Design - New IRL Technology - Lifelike, Real, Immersive I have heard better sources that make things sound better. Gary at Genesis did this with vinyl recordings a few years back. Easy to hear the differences in the materials used to make the vinyl discs. Better yes, earth shattering no. | |
| Amir and Blind Testing IMO if you have to do an A/B comparison blindfolded and struggle to hear any major differences, then keep what you Have. If you don't hear an immediate improvement then cross that item off you list. Happy Listening. | |
| The panic selling of tube audio had begun. @rickdoesaudio I just repaired that same model not worth that price unless completely upgraded. Happy Listening. | |
| Reasons not to freak out about tube supplies New Sensor just advised me that they are back on track to get supplies. Happy Listening. | |
| Best upgrade: amp or pre-amp? All good suggestions - buy a nice condition BEL power amp and send it to me for upgrades and then you will be dome with all of this. Happy Listening. | |
| Sad to say I need a new amp… @wb27 @bkeske Gentlemen, I am in New Jersey if you want me to repair your components. PM me - Peter | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) @atmasphere @spenav Sorry Ralph while I am familiar with your work, I have no first hand experience. But you are one of the few who manufacturers quality from what I can see. I remember also using Caddock resistors back in the day also. spe... | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) @atmasphere @spenav I have heard the amps you mentioned at length. I knew Tommy O'Brien personally and he came to many of our Audio Raves back in the day. He is a really nice gentleman and his products are excellent. That being said, those ... | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) @spanev - his statement was to me that he has heard amps that compete - so since I cannot get a hold of his amps - I am asking him to provide me with his experience based upon his response to me. To date, we have not heard a class D amplifier th... | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) @atmasphere besides your class D amps what others do you feel compete? Thanks | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) @rsf507 - Vu Jade Audio come to our listening room in Northern New Jersey and bring whatever you want to compare. Happy Listening | |
| Class A or Class D solid-state amplifiers (modern designs) I am reading this with great interest. To date, we have not heard a class D amplifier that competes in sound quality. We are open to hear something that comes close but not yet to our ears. Happy Listening. | |
| Class-A Amplification and 15 Amp Outlet Just plug them in and play them. We use a Walmart power strip for around $10 and it works fine. You are better off spending money on upgrades capacitors, resistors, chokes, etc. | |
| How to make small room sound bigger sure modify your components begin with power supply capacitors, install better resistors like Audio Note non-magnetic silver, add filter chokes to the AC and inputs, etc. Happy Listening. |
