| Those magical days when the HVAC is off I don't have AC. Love it. | |
| Quality of recording while evaluating speakers nope. evaluate using recordings that you know personally and know exactly what they should sound like. I had a friend come over to listen to my stereo. he put on a song I didn't know and in 10 seconds said "your channels are reversed". I had... | |
| Grimm MU1/Mola Mola Tambaqui combo vs. Grimm MU2 @rdoc Sounds like the MU2 may be different than the MU1, especially on volume control. I'll look into it. thanks. | |
| Grimm MU1/Mola Mola Tambaqui combo vs. Grimm MU2 @rdoc the question is, is it an active preamp or is it a passive preamp? what I've described, just a switch, it often called a passive preamp. I still think that is what we have but will look into it. I have a contact at Grimm that I will ask. ... | |
| Grimm MU1/Mola Mola Tambaqui combo vs. Grimm MU2 @rdoc The MU1 has the ability to take an analog input and switch it through to the analog output. I assume that is what you are referring to. but it is just a convenience switch, not a preamp. That assumes I understand it correctly. I haven't ... | |
| What is the science behind audiophile fuses? People overestimate the engineering and design behind the fues the OEM puts on their amp. First fuses can't protect everything inside your amp, otherwise, the fuse would be practically the only thing that fails. but in my life I've seen a lot of... | |
| Grimm MU1/Mola Mola Tambaqui combo vs. Grimm MU2 The MU2 is a streamer DAC combo. It also has built in Roon Core and upscaling. MU1 is streamer only. It has the Roon core and upscaling, but no DAC. Both have optional onboard storage for your library. I use the MU1 and an external DAC. I do... | |
| Need A 10-30 watt Tube Power Amp, Lower Heat Output, Which Sounds Great, Under $1500 Used In this price range you'll be very tempted to buy a mass produced, printed cricuit board based, chinese amp. I'd avoid these as they are mediocre at best. buy the best point to point wired amp you can afford. I bought a Tektron 300b, 2A3, 45 ... | |
| Need A 10-30 watt Tube Power Amp, Lower Heat Output, Which Sounds Great, Under $1500 Used @nightfall A dealer will always (or almost always) try to upsell you. Borrow a 300B and try it. | |
| Need A 10-30 watt Tube Power Amp, Lower Heat Output, Which Sounds Great, Under $1500 Used I have an original version baby amp. Nice and surprisingly powerful for a 10 lb amp. I'd give the Decware SE84UFO quite the higher performance rating over the baby and just as powerful although the decware is rated much lower in watts. For t... | |
| Need A 10-30 watt Tube Power Amp, Lower Heat Output, Which Sounds Great, Under $1500 Used You don't need 10 wpc for those speakers. To run cool (which I like too) look for a 300B amp. To meet your price range, look used. | |
| Mirage M-3si Replacement Tweeters Blast from the past. I sold my M3si's on craigslist for a couple hundred a couple of years ago. searching for prices I saw some posts on alternate tweeters, but that was like I say, a couple years ago. Cool speakers. they were in my living roo... | |

| UPGRADE PATH FROM CHORD QUTEST My path: Qutest to DAVE to Lampizator GG3. | |
| Ethernet Switch With that many circuits, the Netgear switch is probably what you need. Most audio switches have fewer ports, I think 8 is most I've seen, mine has 4. if you feel you want the isolation of an audio switch, you can put it at your music room. Je... |
