| How cam Morrow Audio keep offering 45%-65% discounts for trade-ups? @carlsbad2 , So which ones did you try ? | |
| Help this old rookie with speakers Thanks for the post , unfortunately 22 of the 23 answers don’t address your question. I’ve been curious about the Crites also. I guess I should chime in about the 3 brands I have that aren’t Crites. Oh and I have a standard poodle , does that coun... | |
| Power cable from wall socket to power strip All I can say is it did for me. I use a Richard Gray power conditioner. I also replaced my outlets with 20 amp Hubble. I have a 15 to 20 amp plug adapter and tried all my extra power cords. I then purchased a Shunyata Venom HC 20 amp cord and i... | |
| The Marantz Model 15 Amp Dave are your “ Heritage IV “ speakers Heresy IV’s ? I went on a vintage gear binge about 8 years ago. I had a Sansui 9090 already. I acquired a Sansui 6060, a Marantz 2226B ( like yours ), and a pair of reproduction Dynaco MK III’s. For speakers ... | |
| My Oppo 105 finally bricked. Streamer suggestions? I use a Project Stream Box Ultra II hardwired, to feed my Schiit Yiggy with a Cardas Clear USB. I stream Tidal and listen to a few of the provided internet radio channels. It replaced my laptop and my barely used Oppo 105 resides in the closet. ... | |
| What happened to those dreaded 1099 forms we were going to receive from Paypal? I live in central Ca, and Jerry’s correct. I paid $5.59 for diesel yesterday. PG&E was just granted a 36% rate hike. Cigar tax and sales tax add 64% to a box of cigars, hence $65 per 100 added to cost. Ate in SF recently and was hit for a 4% l... | |
| KT120 replacement options in a Cronus Magnum II You are correct, do not mix tubes of different values in your amp. Also great advice above from the member comparing the specific tubes in the same amp. As far as “ Hot Spots “, are you referring to the Ghetter Flashing ? Watch some Utube videos t... | |
| Really Inexpensive Systems That Sounded Great? +1 on the Akitika, they are amazing. Stereo Times has a nice review. I have a modest system ( $12K ). I pulled the SEP tube amp and rotated in the Akitika, sounds amazing. Pair it with the matching pre or use Shitt Audio gear. I ran the amp with Z... | |
| KT120 replacement options in a Cronus Magnum II Are you running the amp with empty tube sockets ? So tubes are a wear item, they break in and then slowly erode after hundreds of hours of use. It’s never good to run a bunch of mismatched tubes. As per your question, I’d buy tubes before a new ca... | |
| KT120 replacement options in a Cronus Magnum II First off replace all 4 power tubes together with 4 new tubes. Then bias according to manufacturer recommendations. If the amp is old and the tubes are that tired , I’d consider replacing the small signal tubes as well. Be careful not to damage th... | |
| ATC SCM19 V2 Recommendations. +1 on the Sound Anchor recommendation, I used them for JBL and Westlake monitors. I still have a 3 leg pair for some vintage JBL’s. What is nice is that you can attain an exact height, and exact footprint for your speaker cabinet. Warning , do not... | |
| Bad experience with an electrician How many Lieutenants does it take to screw in a light bulb ? One, he just holds it up and the world revolves around him. | |
| You know when you are dealing with a BS company.... I think over the years Morrow’s marketing is a little unusual. I have Level 4 IC’s, speaker , power and a digital cable. All of my cables were purchased during sales events and we’re 50% off. One of my transactions was with Mike on the phone an... | |
| SPDIF Coax cable recommendation? I ran a Better Cables Silver Serpent as my first attempt and it added to much brightness to my system. I’ve since removed any cables with silver and recently tried some Seimens silver plate 12AU7’s in my Rogue pre ( too bright ). Not wanting BRIGH... | |
| Is there anything better than live recordings? I personally think that most live recordings are sub par. However occasionally I find a good one, and I very much enjoy them. I went through a phase back when Blu-ray first came out and had a large concert collection. I had a surround system (... |
