Pass Labs XA25 vs LTA ZOTL40 -- Which creates a greater sense of image palpability?
Bill I remember years ago you almost bought my Intuitive Design Gammas speakers but there was a crack in the granite cabinet and you passed on them.  Anyway they are still in my system sounding mighty fine with a pair of push pull 2a3 mono blocks.... 
Pass Labs XA25 vs LTA ZOTL40 -- Which creates a greater sense of image palpability?
Hey Bill I knew that but for some reason I was drawing a blank on the name.  I also ride weekly about 100 miles per week.  We have a couple of great hobbies! 
Pass Labs XA25 vs LTA ZOTL40 -- Which creates a greater sense of image palpability?
Bill all these years I never figured your forum name until I just saw the grannyring picture, and I am a avid bike rider.  Anyway to answer your question I have heard the Pass XA25 in a friends system and I don't think it could get much better.  M... 
Should I keep the Turntable or sell it?
Bignamehere,I have read only the first page of your thread but you should also look at a idler drive turntable.  I have a Lenco Aristian Fidelity table which is over your budget but the idler wheel drive is a great option.  Check out Lenco Heaven ... 
Review on Linear Tube Audo Ultralinear amplifier just went up on Six Moons.com
Thanks Teajay for your prompt reply.  I have owned both a 2a3 & 300b.  I also like the 2a3 tube better along with the 45 tube.  However   I have a interesting dilemma.  The current room I have the LTA would proably work best but in around 15 m...

Is there anyone out there who knows anything about Essence Speakers by Dale Pitcher?
I have owned Dale's Intiutive Design's speakers for about 10 years.  The Gammas Deltas still sound incredible. 
why so many gryphon diablo 300 integrated for sale now?
I am sure the Diablo 300 is outstanding product but you know how fickle a audiophile is.  About 10 years ago I owned a really top flight integrated that I totally enjoyed but kept thinking about the tube equipment that I no longer had. So I sold i... 
What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ?
We really are splitting hairs here.  Yes there are some other real expensive brands that others might prefer over Pass but to these years Pass has always sounded very musical.   They are made in the  USA and the company support is second to none. ... 
Simaudio Moon 700i vs Boulder 865 Integrateds
How do you like your Boulder? 
Daedalus Audio Apollo Speakers
It does sound like your  LTA UL reveals what the Apollo's are capable of.  I have two tube amps that I am sure would make the Apollo sing.  They are a 15 & 7 watt sets.  My last question to you my current listening room is 11 × 12  do you thin...

Enjoyed your review. 
Daedalus Audio Apollo Speakers
Enjoying your read.  How does your ultralinear handle these speakers? 
Looking for the best Preamp with a phono circuit built in
My Deja Vu preamp has a great MC phono section.  I also use a rebuilt Heathkit 151 built by Sams Audio that has a mc & mm phono section.  Nothing lacking here either.
