Gallo 3's vs Silverline Bolero or Sonata III The new Gallo 3.5's are a completely different animal. Tube friendly and very dynamic mids. But Djwilbourn appears to be looking for speakers with good wood cabinets. | |
Best Rock Album in 2010 Local Natives - Gorilla ManorSome of the freshest new stuff I have heard in awhile. | |
Praise for Spectron Takes awhile (500-1000 hours) to break-in this amp so be patient. It can sound not so great for the first 150 hours.Simon is good to work with for audio equipment. | |
Gallo reference 3.1 Amp + Pre? LINN MAJIK DS IMO the Spectron Sig III amp is an excellent match for the Gallo 3.1's. Especially if you are not using the Gallo subamp.As for pre-amps, you could go in several different directions but I believe tubed; Modwright, BAT, etc., would balance out you... | |
Gallo/amp questions It is too bad you can't hold out for a Sig III. Quite a jump in performance. | |
New Gallo 3.5's Appears the new 3.5's are more tube friendly. http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/gallo9/ref35_3.html | |
Gallo/amp questions Yes, you may still use the sub-amp. Only thing you are changing is using the amp pre-outs to the external amp. Your current sub-amp arrangement will stay the same. Mr. Gallo himself uses the Spectron amp. It would be an excellent upgrade for you. | |
Is my room doomed? Pic Looks like side firing woofers. Are they facing each other or away from each other? Might be better facing each other with no side walls. | |
upgrades to Spectron Musician III Mk 2 I have both upgrades but have never compared to a MKII without them. All I know is I really like the sound coming out of the amp. Not sure if you can do both, maybe one or the other, of these upgrades after the amp has been built. | |
Transistor Thanks Al. I am quite ignorant about such matters. I hope you are right and the replacement of the "resistor" will be all that is needed. | |
Spectron Mk II, is it really that good. IMHO it would seem to me that the Spectron MKII amp would be a good match with you beloved Ohms. | |
Spectron amps-biwire=Remote sense+other cables? I have Gallo 3.1 speakers with a SA amp. I am using Remote Sense cables from the Specton amp to the SA amp, with regular speaker calbles to the speakers, and Elrod speaker cables to the main posts on the 3.1's. Works fine for me. | |
New LP's made from analog or digital masters Thanks Tfkaudio. I am considering going vinyl but was wondering if records from digital masters would sound just liket there cd counterparts. Sounds like the vinyl would still have higher fidelity over the cd's in most cases. | |
New LP's made from analog or digital masters Paul, you may have answered my concerns about the new records being issued. If they are being made from digital masters do they sound the same as cd's or better? Anyone else have any experience comparing the sound of cd's and digitally mastered re... | |
