| Unsolvable Woofer Pumping (Phono only) @agp46 I do not (yet!)...I've 'solved' the problem though, turns out it was just uneven or slightly warped LPs... :( | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! @rongold Glad to hear about your experience! :) I think as people have said, I should upgrade speakers first, THEN find an amp. I guess I'll do that... | |
| Upgrading System...Help/opinions on Parasound and others? @twoch Internet switch? | |
| Power for Focal Aria 936 @coolposter What did you end up going with? :) | |
| Upgrading System...Help/opinions on Parasound and others? @corelli Thanks, another option to investigate :) | |
| Unsolvable Woofer Pumping (Phono only) @lenmc2964 It seems to have settled down a lot dependent on the record I choose, and my bass settings, but I will still likely consider the rumble filter in the future :)@raindance I have no idea either, it should really be a no brainer to include... | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! @tuberist I don't know much when it comes to speaker sensitivity. If I were to upgrade to the 936, Focal's site says their sensitivity is 92dB, with recommended amp from 50-300W. Maybe the PL isn't a good choice if I go with those speakers...but ... | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! @wolf_garcia Wolf, glad to hear about the Schiit gear. I'll take a look into the products you mentioned@eliottbnewcombjr Wow, thank you for your lengthy advice! I'm no familiar with a lot of the technical measurements that are involved with spea... | |
| Unsolvable Woofer Pumping (Phono only) @rdk777 Very interesting...I think I've removed everything from the proximity of the TT that may cause that. Someone told me it could be a dimmer switch on the same circuit. Turned out to not be that.Just looked up your ARC Ref 2SE, that's one h... | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! @davekayc They seem nice, especially the Cronus III...but just too far out of my price range. It's about $4000 plus 13% tax where I live. | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! Thanks noodlyarm! Someone in another forum has basically convinced me to home audition both of my interests (which have now boiled down to the Vincent or the PL EVO 100 Integrated). I've found a dealer for each, that are about an hour away...so i... | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! @veerossi Great. I'm In Canada, so honestly the only way for me to try PrimaLuna is to buy, and if I decide to go with something else, I'd have to pay 5% restock fee, which in my case is about $130. I looked at Line Magnetic's stuff earlier toda... | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! @tomcy6 I think, as others have suggested (maybe here, maybe another forum, can't remember LOL) that for my needs and budget, having a tube preamp and SS power amp is a good idea, whether it's integrated or not. I've heard nothing but good things... | |
| Diving into the world of tubes...help needed! Thanks for your input everyone. I'll consider all of your suggestions as I continue my search :) | |
| Unsolvable Woofer Pumping (Phono only) I've done some critical listening and found that unless my speakers are above a whisper, the loudness kind of makes them muddy anyway. If I play a smoother record (especially in the inner tracks), the woofer pumping is not there, even at high vol... |
