| 40+ watts SET, cost is not a problem Ah yes, the elusive GM70. | |
| 40+ watts SET, cost is not a problem Apollo Audio systems (google them, audiogon won't allow a link) is reporting excellent results with high power SETs. He is a typical small amp company run by the genius and enthusiasm of a single gifted individual. I have no affiliation with them.... | |
| People complain about lack of bass, not enough mid range. Solution? no. | |
| Aurender is finally Roon Ready?! @audphile1 I don't think the words around your statement change anything. I interpret this as your opinion is that Roon is inferior wrt sound quality. Is that correct? | |
| Aurender is finally Roon Ready?! "For casual listening Roon should be awesome." LOL. | |
| Aurender is finally Roon Ready?! Interesting. My understanding is that Aurender saw Roon as a competitor to their Conductor ap. I guess they realized they were losing business from guys like me. I never even considered Aurender. I have an Innuos and a Grimm. When I started s... | |

| Small amp or all in 1 choice? With in-wall speakers sound quality is so limitied I would lower my expectations and go with a simple all in one. No 5.1 available either. TV sound without a center will be sub optimal. | |
| Can anyone recommend a new or NOS 300B or 805 vacuum tube? Most of the 805 amps with 300b drivers that I've seen are mass produced Chinese amps and these tubes rival the price of the amp. OP, what price range are you shopping in? Jerry | |
| Can you use both RCA and XLR interconnects into the amplifier? Do you have a switch to select which input you are listening to? If so, then yes. I used the exact same setup you are discussing with the tech on several amps. On one amp I had to install a selector switch myself since it had both RCA and XLR inpu... | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers @stereo5 realize that you ar sitting in the living room of the Hatfieds and forming a negative opinion of the McCoys. | |
| Stereophile review of the $30,000 tekton speakers @audition__audio Indeed, the box is part of the system and the designer has to take that into account. Simple boxes can be a problem for amateurs making DIY speakers. Jerry | |
| Should Speaker Manufactures provide a Frequency Response Graph? Posting a graph wouldn't be bad idea. I'm sure some would resist, especially those with poor graphs. I think if we had them all, Tekton would fall toward the top. Eric has always been proud of his flat frequency resonse. They already post nu... |
