What have YOU got? Of course I'll start a thread for the 88, goes without saying! Thanks for the offer very much, David, I may take you up on it. The deal on the 88 review was, the guy was an amateur, and didn't belong in TAS! DA GONE IT, I should review equipment s... | |
what is Slew Rate ? Shayner, excellent textbook definitions! As far as electronics that have the highest slew rate, I believe it's Spectral, at like 1000 volts/microsecond. HOWEVER, Herman, I have the feeling what you are craving would be best served by seeking a hig... | |
Avante Garde horn speakers..... Don't be too discouraged, "corn fed" people would have to spend a lot of time in the lavatory, and probably aren't as adept at listening to music, as the rest of us. | |
Upsampling DACS: Take the Pepsi Challenge As far as actually getting true 140dB performance, the only DAC that even claims this is the new $15,000 Boulder (no, I've not heard it). The DAC's in question have NOT tested to 140dB, in any test I've seen. You have to keep in mind that the anal... | |
Differences btw Blue Heaven & Red Dawn? I think the Harry Pearson followers don't like Red Dawn, for some reason. I've not heard either one, myself. I have researched it a little, though, and can tell you that the Red Dawn speaker cables are 14 gauge, and the Blue Heaven are 16. Both ar... | |
What have YOU got? Yes, it has the KT-88's. I'm paying $950, plus shipping, but this unit has never even been assembled, brand new. Yes, please try the Lo4. I feel that the Ruby 2's output is so low, that few phono preamps are quiet enough for it. I know there are t... | |
Worst Music of All-Time BS is so famous because she's the antichrist, and all her fans will soon begin eating the brains of all righteous and true music lovers...so buy a helmet, and pray! | |
What have YOU got? David, try a Benz LO4 cartridge sometime. Hey, I'd forgotten that you had Rogue products. I just ordered a Model 88 amp, I'll let you know what I think of it (my ss amp isn't going anywhere, though). The reviewer who did the TAS review of the 88 i... | |
Building Watt/puppy clone I like the large gauge North Creek inductors very much. Michael Percy needs his own website. I can buy all the MDF I like, it's cheap...the problem is building these things. Takes a lot of time, but it'll be worth it. I hope to get someone to manu... | |
Subwoofer for Magnepan 1.6? I like the Sunfire mk 2 with my MMG's. You just have to point the passive radiator toward the corner (usually it'll be right against one room corner, behind the speakers), turn the volume on the sub way down, adjust phase (takes listening and test... | |
Avante Garde horn speakers..... The problem just doesn't seem to be amplitude related, going by what the guys who've owned these have said. Since you can adjust the sub's output level, and since guys usually don't buy these to pump a lot of power into the horns, it seems like it... | |
Does speaker cable length really matter? Let's change the subject. | |
MY Sidewinder AC cord progress: Don't know anything about them, but hope to try a PS Audio 300 soon. | |
Cables, Interconnects and More Cables??? Let's not go off the deep end, here. A conductor is in series with the signal it passes, thus it has total effect on it. | |
Worst Music of All-Time I don't like anything about BS. |
