| Review: Audio Note DAC 3.1 Balanced DA converter I have an original DAC 1 Signature. My neighbour who has a 5 figure Levinson DAC likes the sound of this early 90's better than his Levinson. A DAC 1 for less than 700 has to be a deal of the year.Go figure.Regards,Carl | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? top of the line audio note anj/spx powered by the ongaku is the best I've ever heard. A highly modified original B/W 801 would be a nice thing to have, too; eliminates need for a sub.Carl | |
| 300B king of tubes? It is important to ensure that your 300b amp has a more than adequate transformer so you get good bass. Also, the matching of the amp to the speaker is important. A 2A3 tube amp might be better but they are typically very low powered.Carl | |

| Recommendation for amp & pre combo +- 3,000? an audio note integrated amp..(soro, I think) is a direct heated/single ended/class/pentode amp with 18 watts, can be had with a phono section or line, and sounds great.

| Best HT speaker system used linn speakers are hard to beat and there are quite a few around...you always have the option of going active with linn cards and amps, too, and that materially improves the already excellent soundfwiwcarl | |
| I have a 2 channel set up. What is the best way the fellow recommending the Technics processor and a three channel amp makes sense. My only addition to that is that the Technics was a relatively inexpensive product. I acquired a used Sony ES dolby digital processor; it also has the analogue pas... | |
