| anyone heard the usher 6 series speakers? Sounds like proof by assertion, Bartokfan, although I'll grant you Seas makes pretty good stuff. Ever heard of Audio Technology? Probably not, as they do custom work among other things.Brian | |
| audio research or wife Between the two, I definitely choose wife research. | |
| Kubala-Sosna cables? Keithr, cable break-in is no joke. Some people have measured differences between identical cables where one was broken in and the other wasn't, although the equipment and the knowledge needed to do so are costly and substantial, respectively, whic... | |
| should everyone just order emm? i may as well jump in a lake and swallow a snake.Do you trust your own ears? | |
| Otl's with AvantGarde Duos? It seems to me the primary goal of an OTL is to eliminate hysteresis loss and bandwidth limiting imposed by output transformers. Since David Berning's patent is about another approach to achieve that goal, may I suggest that the results are all th... | |
| from a Krell SS- FPB 600 to What Tube Amp ? Before thinking about amplifiers I suggest you settle on loudspeakers, as you indicate you want to change them as well. A bit of information on your room and music and listening preferences would be helpful, otherwise you might be throwing money a... | |
| Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA Discounts of that magnitude certainly are not standard, but you didn't give your source of information. A manufacturer that gets 50 percent or less of retail list price for his product sets the price higher to compensate. Consumers don't always know. | |
| Lamm M 1.2 against Tenor 300 and Boulder 2060 Two people whose ears and judgment I trust outside of my own, one who has earned significant success as a high end speaker manufacturer for quite a few years, evaluated the hybrids and the OTLs and preferred the OTLs which were clearer and more re... | |
| Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA Rwd - Kind of makes you go "hmmmm"! 50 point discount, too! | |
| $4000 to spend on a SS power amp - help me choose Yes, I owned a pair and they are powewrful indeed but no soundstage depth and too hifi sounding for my tastes.I've always had tons of depth with the JC-1s as have my customers (I'm an authorized Parasound Halo dealer), but they do sound thin while... | |

| Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA Thanks, Mark. What you heard at CES '03 was but a rough snapshot. Any time you're in the Chicago area, please be my guest and come by for a listen.Brian | |
| Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA Mark, if someone is happy changing his system every six months or so, there's no point of further discussion, cost not being an issue. Some people go through cars, boats, whatever often enough to make your head spin. Auto nervosa? Not much differe... | |
| Tube amp for Avalon Eidolon ? Along with Rushton's recommendation, I'd strongly recommend CAT.Brian | |
| Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA Entertaining, yes, informative, uh...I guess I'm silly for finding something that gets things right in the first place and leaving it alone. There is no perfect component or speaker, just different approaches and I guess I'm old school wanting pro... |
