| Anyone else constantly curious about amps? What are the speakers? I didn’t care for a Sugden and Devore combo. I found the amp on the bright side but I typically steer towards tubes. I had the mastersound 24 watt 300B many years ago. Great amp, not familiar with the one you own. | |
| Which amplifier I had a pair of Cornwalls driven with a Coda CSIB. It was a great tonal combination, big soundstage, exciting but not bright. I felt the Cornwalls wanted a bit of power. I demoed them with the small Luxman tube amp and just didn't feel that combo.... | |
| Shakti Stone I had a friend with the Skakti stones. He also had the little tiny bowls that would hit right at the spot of the reflection point. He had a beautiful Luxman Magico system. I think if any of these chockskies did anything at all, it was to help him... | |
| The Insane World of High End Audio! Is it All a Scam? Sut up? Stupid? etc. Perhaps you can open up a university to train people in acoustics and that way they can get beyond having to buy a Wilson and instead can find pleasure in handing a whisk and other kitchen item around the house. The hobby... | |
| Tannoy Turnberry vs Fyne 502SP? Thanks @mmcgill829 I came pretty close to ordering the Coherents a few years ago. I typically don't shy away from buying and selling, but the design, concepts and materials tweaking made me hesitate. I also struggled to imagine deep tuneful bass w... | |
| Tannoy Turnberry vs Fyne 502SP? I'm curious about the Turnberry. I've had some time with the Fyne's. Is there any more feedback on these, especially in the tweeter region? Seems like they both like a little more power. Coherent Audio in Canada always grabs my interest too. Any... | |
| How to find local audiophiles Local pickup. 2.5 hours later, still rapping in the parking lot. Cape Cod, MA | |
| Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby? Trying to expand business and kids going to college, coming up on 52 I am content. I found what draws me into the music after too many years of poking around. Part of my fun was trial and error and what helped was having a dealer/friend in the bus... | |
| Mike's Barn. I missed the part where Millercarbon pulled his Tekton's out of the van! | |
| Mike's Barn. The Youtube page says: Millercarbon’s audiophile journey across America. Join us as we visit audiophiles, designer/manufacturers, and reviewers on our travels across the country. His camera skills are similar to his communication when he was on t... | |
| No love for Cube Audio speakers? These seem like they would sell, I’ve read great reviews on them. I also had a hard time selling a Fyne speaker, ended up taking a beating like 65 percent of retail. I just think they’re still unknown. Try posting the Stanglegan Ebane review link... | |
| Will a high quality preamp really make a difference in sound?? Also speaker cable I’m in the camp that everything matter within reason. If you have a Service Merchandise speaker with a VAC amp and a Nordost loom I think you not get the most out of the amp because the speakers are K-Mart. If your room is less than perfect you w... | |
| Why do I have to prove I am a human, every time I refresh a page on this site ? Probably has something to do with Millercarbon or might date way back to the Audiopimp. | |
| Devore O/96 with high powered amplifiers The above video about John’s foray with amps was fun but it sounded to me like like even he was uncertain why some of the higher power amps worked better than other with the O/96. I’ve veered away from the low powered gear for a while but seem to... | |
| Moving to separates I'd suggest getting out and listening to few systems either through local shops or audio members. If you arent sure if you would be able to tell the difference the first thing you need are a few good reference points. Otherwise you might spend sig... |
