| Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these? Mr. Alanmkafton, aka Audio Excellence AZ and sole seller of the Cable Cooker, I suggest you take a deep breath and think before launching an attack on me. The intent of my post was not to badmouth the product you sell, which serves a purpose for s... | |
| Liquid Ceramics cables Has anyone heard these? Ozzy, if I were you I'd contact Cerious before using the cooker on them, as Bob Grost has been around the industry for a long time and might likely have comments you would find useful. Be careful.Brian | |
| Has MartinLogan gone too far with powered woofers? As you have learned, it can be unwise to make such a leap of faith based upon what you currently own. Krelldog is correct about breaking them in, although that's no guarantee you will change your mind, so you might want to explore other speakers. ... | |
| Watt Puppy 7s/Maxx 2s Depending upon your room and taste, you might also consider JM Lab or Rockport. I'm not sure about compatibility of the other tube amps you mentioned with the Wilsons, but Atma-Spheres have been used very successfully with them, as have Lamm. I ag... | |
| Need advice on my Parasound JC 1 If you are having an issue with bias I suggest you contact your dealer first - that's his job, as support doesn't end when the check clears. If you're not getting any satisfaction then contact Parasound service, 866-770-8324 toll free. I recommend... | |
| Need advice on my Parasound JC 1 John Curl informs me the resistors you spoke of were step down resistors used to drop the 115V from the driver stage to 15V for the servos, not feedback resistors.Brian | |
| Need advice on my Parasound JC 1 Yes, the feedback resistors were changed from the first batch, but I don't think it is unrelated to bias issues. I had an early pair as well and didn't have any problems with bias. Parasound solved a few glitches in early units and reports excelle... | |
| Avalon Eidolon Diamond and Tenor Audio OTL The Tenor 75s cannot handle the load and drive the speakers well. If you want more than the JL2 can deliver consider either JL3s or Atma-Sphere MA-2s.Brian | |
| which balanced preamp to recomend? Herron preamps are single ended only. A used Atma-Sphere MP-3 probably could be found within your price range and is fully balanced.Brian | |
| Whose sorry now? Sellers remorse from selling amp. None here, but the guy who sold me his Bedini 25/25 was sorry to see it go...Brian | |
| Subwoofer Crossover Replacement for Wilson WHOW? Nsgarch, this is not the place to promote your business. If the rest of us can abide by the posting rules, so can you. | |
| CAT amps comparison, continued Luke72, I know what the JL2 sounds like driving Sound Labs and can extrapolate what the JL3 Sigs will do, but it's probably not appropriate for me to post anything further here. However, I am the only dealer able to demonstrate the combination...B... | |
| What is the Best Amp to match with CJ ART?? All Atma-Sphere MA-1s have had 14 output tubes for quite a few years. I have 14 tube MA-1 Mk II.3s that I use and demo, as well as a pair of a pair of 12 tube MA-1 Mk Is. The differences are substantial, much more than the power rating difference.... | |
| CAT amps comparison, continued Or RSVP :-)Brian | |
| Tally up best preamplifier ever Great post, John. Naturally I agree with your choice but also with the overall view that an "absolute" best doesn't exist. For what it's worth, there are a few very nice tube units as well. It's all about system synergy (careful matching) and pers... |
