| Speakers "Disappearing" With proper setup and good components, speakers and a good recording you should be able to get a wall of great sound. With Maggie's I get a huge wall of sound that is so life like and utterly amazing.Cheers | |
| Have you moved from tubed amplification to solid state amplification... Why? I went the opposite direction, I started off with Solid state and went to tubes. I am a Magnepan owner (20.7's) and had a pair of ARC monoblock amps that was rated 600wpc in 4ohms. It goes without saying from a power perspective they did the trick... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Frogman that's an absolute classic and one of my favorite LP's by Cannonball and Trane. Adderley is so smooth while you can feel the brute force of Trane. The combination is euphoric magic. You guys are all the best and thank you for letting me be... | |
| Jazz for aficionados If not Cannonball, maybe a young Joe Henderson or a Sonny Rollins. In either case I don't believe neither would of made KOB the album it is today. Cannonball worked extremely well with Coltrane, with their ability to exchange improvisational harmo... | |
| EL34 tubes- alternates to matched octet for Primaluna HP dialogue premium @lloydc sorry I misread power tubes. I was speaking in terms of NOS 12au7’s. Cheers | |
