| Audible Illusions L2 or Audio Research LS16MKII? ARC LS16 Mk II. | |
| Integrated for my Aerial 7B's ? Rogue Tempest or Cary SLI-80. | |
| Best Power Conditioner? I just purchased an API Power Pack II and feel it makes a nice improvement on my CD player. | |
| Best drink while listening to your rig? A dry red wine. | |
| Purist Audio Venustas vs. Nordost Quattro In my opinion, eventhough the Nordost are "fast" sounding cables, the Purist cables are much more musical and real sounding with more depth and 3-D presentation. I highly recommend you listen to the Venustas cables. Next to the Purist Dominus they... | |
| Punch in your votes: Krell KAV300i VS Class CAP151 I would agree with jrogers. I've owned both of these integrated amps a few years ago and now I am using a Consonance M100 plus integrated tube amplifier. The tubes are so much more 3 dimensional and real sounding that I will probably never go back... | |
| what speakers for 40 watt triode? I'm using the efficient Coincident Conquest with my low wattage tube amp. | |
| Punch in your votes: Krell KAV300i VS Class CAP151 Class CAP-151 hands down. | |
| Purist Audio Colossus speaker cables... wow If you think the Colossus is good you should listen to the Venustas. I had a Colossus biwire for three years and then switched to the Museaus toward the end of last year. Now I have the Venustas and I have to say it is by far the best speaker cabl... | |
| New Eva Cassidy - "Imagine" I think it's a great CD; her version of "Fever" is especially good. I was surprised to learn that Eva Cassidy died in 1996 at the age of 33 from melanoma. What a loss to the music world. | |
| CA-200 vs. ML 332 I would stick with your CA200; that's a great sounding amp. The MLs sound a tad more neutral but I feel they are not as musical as the Classe. The MLs will increase your electric bill also; they run pure class A whereas the Classe runs AB. | |
| ARC LS25 MK1 Trouble-Shooting Sounds like one of the 6DJ8 tubes in the line stage went bad. | |
| Scott/Dynaco TUbe Amps...... Scott and Fisher made great tube equipment. The RCAs and binding posts aren't very good though by today's standards. Also the caps in the power supply possibly will need to be replaced. The old Stereo 70 is a great amp and it is even better after ... | |
| Best female vocals on CD Alison Krauss "Forget About It" is an outstanding CD but I just bought a CD by a group called HEM entitled "Rabbit Songs" where I like the lead singer even more than Alison Krauss (or anyone else for that matter). HEM's lead singer is Sally Ellyso... | |
| Purist Audio Venustas Speaker Cable - Any Good ? Verybigamp ("Romy The Cat") - Personally I really don't care what you think. I'm just expressing an opinion which I'm entitled to do here; afterall this is what this forum is all about. Sorry if I pissed you off. |
