| SET amps ? Charles, Agree on the Coincident. I'm pretty sure we won't see Israel selling any bad sounding gear. I guess the same could be said for Dennis. Nice to see SOTA guys working a little magic on more affordable stuff. BTW, the 101D's arrived a couple... | |
| SET amps ? Guys, I don't know what happened to the OP but I am enjoying this thread. I am beginning to put together a bedroom system, and my idea is to go with something totally different than my Magnepan/Cary SS main rig. High efficiency monitors driven by ... | |
| Lower Volume from One Monoblock Russ offers good advice. If a fuse blows on one side of the Cary MB's you will get a much lower volume (really low) out of that amp. Its always worth a try taking the cover off and seeing if there is anything obvious. | |
| New Magneplanar 1.7 owner Johnnyb, MG 3.7Rs in 3, 2, 1----.Happy for you. Once you really get Maggies working for you, it's hard to go in another direction. Believe, me, I know. SMGa to QR1.6 to 3.7R. Each time I wanted to move away from Maggies, and just couldn't do it. W... | |
| Comparative help... I have heard both the Thiels and the Josesphs, but in completely different systems. For what its worth, I much prefered the Josephs. However, I heard the Josephs in a far better system than the Thiels. | |
| Lower Volume from One Monoblock Stickman, I haven't tried any of the Bryston amps in my set up. It's been all Cary for a long time now. | |
| Lower Volume from One Monoblock Stickman, If you are thinking about replacing the Cary's you might want to give some thought to the CAD 500.1t's. In most respects, the 500.1's are much better amps than their predecessors. They don't come up for sale very often though. | |
| Rivaling or Beyond the ESL 57 for Magical Midrange Shakey, Only one explaination. We have all finally obtained the speakers and amps of our dreams. Yes, we are all done buying and selling. Nothing left to discuss but AC outlets. | |
| Dream System: Magico + Coincident + Wavelength ? Agree with BRF on the Dragon's and the Magico's. I love the Coincident stuff, and I like the one audition I have heard of Magicos (not the Q3) but I probably wouldn't pair Magicos and Dragons. | |
| 5AR4/GZ34 Rectifier Tubes Gold Lion 2, Create Synergy 0. No small accomplishment for GL to beat the create at half the price! Thanks again to Bayreuth for drawing this tube to our attention. Now, if they would just be so kind as to offer a 6SN7 that beats the Sophia! | |
| 5AR4/GZ34 Rectifier Tubes Wig, I only had it burning for about 3 hrs last night. As I said, it was a great tube straight out of the box. I will give it another 6 hrs tonight and do more serious listening Sunday evening. This thing is stupid good for $40, and better than ei... | |
| 5AR4/GZ34 Rectifier Tubes Yep, Mofi's link is the place. Tube came in about 3 days. | |
| 5AR4/GZ34 Rectifier Tubes Bayreuth, Wig, and all-- Just a real quick tube rolling session, 1st the Create, then my old 1969 vintage Mullard Blackburn, then the new production Genalex Gold Lion. The Create and Mullard performed true to form-- The Create had superior dynamic... | |
| 5AR4/GZ34 Rectifier Tubes Wig and Bayreuth, the tube came today. I will give it a good listen Saturday night. | |
| 5AR4/GZ34 Rectifier Tubes Bayreuth, Thanks for pointing these out. I have heard nothing about them, but I just bought one to give it a try. Got one for under 40 shipped, which is less than half the current price of the create synergy tubes. I really love the synergy tube, ... |
