| Sean Casper 421a or Don Garber 421A amp? A Sean Casper 421A amp just sold on USAA. It seemed to go for a very fair price. I thought about bidding on it myself but got distracted.Are you lucky enough to think you'll find a Don Garber amp for sale these days? Well do you, punk? (sorry, ... | |
| DECWARE.....ZTPRE anyone have any expeiriance with one ? I have heard the new ZTPre "V6" design, paired with decware 6Wpc monoblocks and decware speakers, and I can definitively say that it is not rolled off on the bottom end. It's an excellent and unique dual mono preamp design. If you need a tube pr... | |
| What are best hi efficiency speakers under $1000? I guess a late reply is better than none. | |
| Potential issues using low powered tube amp with electrostatic speakers Hmmm, it might work but I wouldn't bet that you will be happy. The Ethos speakers use a powered sub section and are rated at 92dB. But my guess is that you are not going to get optimal performance from this amp/speaker combination. You haven't ... | |
| Small Bedroom Tube Amp The Peachtree amps, as mentioned by uberwaltz, are a good option but they are not tube amps.There are many good, inexpensive tube amps available that are certainly more than good enough for bedroom use. I would suggest that you take a look at the... | |
| EL34 in triode vs 300B/845 SET Please allow me to provide a slightly different perspective. I am not a big fan of the 300B, or maybe it's that I haven't yet heard a 300B amp that rang my bell. Anyway, was looking for a new SET amp and ran across Radu Tarta's website: https://... | |
| Any experience with Decware speakers? Should work, but I would try it before you buy it. decware offers a wide range of speakers that generally work with most tube amps but remember that they were voiced using decware amps, all of which sound quite different than the TRV-35's 845 tub... | |
| Any experience with Decware speakers? I have heard several of the decware speakers recently, and I used to own an old pair of horns that Steve doesn't make anymore. I'm a big fan of all things decware, although I realize that their house sound may not be everyone's cup of tea.Having ... | |
| What's the greatest bargain in audio racks these days? The best audio rack I ever owned was the the long defunct Zoethecus rack. I don't know why someone hasn't pirated the design. It was brilliant, effective and attractive.Those Symposium ISIS racks might work well but to me they look like a shelf ... | |
| 300B SET vs.Triode Strapped KT150's??? You are trying to compare apples and oranges. The KT150 tube, "triode strapped" or not, doesn't sound anything like the 300b. I assume that you are considering a 300b SET and not a 300b amp in PP configuration? There are practical implications b... | |
| single driver speakers czarivey wrote: " I heard most of Lowther single driver designs and made my conclusions after listening few."With all due respect, that's like stating that you rode in every trim model of the Chevy Cruze and so based on that experience you can co... | |
| Decware or Primaluna I may be biased, but I'm a big fan of Steve Deckert and all things decware. I don't think that you will ever go wrong, with regard to sound quality, build quality or resale value, with a decware amp. The Torii is one of the most musical and flex... | |
| opinion on Omega Super 3i speakers I have been auditioning various single driver, high efficiency speakers since I decision to return to SET amplification. I have listened to both the Omega Super 3i (5" driver) and Compact Alnico (6.5" driver) and I will say that they sound quite ... | |
| Contemplating DEVORE SPEAKERS (and others)....LONG audition report of many speakers Great review of the speakers you listed. But IMO it would have been more useful if you had listed the amp you are using with your Thiels for reference. From your comments I can't imagine that you are running a tube amp... | |
| Tube Preamps..... Agreed |
