| Conrad Johnson PV10A-Which Tubes ? When to Change? There is also an upgrade for the 10A to the 10B. You may want to consider sending the preamp to CJ for an upgrade and retube all in one. | |
| Anything beat dh labs t-14 for the money...... Try Analysis-Plus. | |
| New Conrad Johnson Premiere 14 Goone-We used the Penaudio Charisma and their new woofer system, Chara. No one wanted to change anything. | |
| New Conrad Johnson Premiere 14 I spent the better part of a day at a local dealer listening to it. It is absolutely lovely. Smooth, transparent, musical, detailed, solid bass, etc., etc. It has to be the best amp they have made. Effortless. I could not listen to any other amps ... | |
| arcam alpha 7 upgrade to alpha 9 or go to a cd92? I may be viewed as a heretic, but the 72 sounds better than the FMJ. Listen carefully and with your own equipment. The 72 is a sleeper. | |
| Decent starter cables? You asked a good question but left us with no parameters. Decent??? Cost??? Kimber and Analysis-Plus probably cover all the bases. With either company you can spend as little as $100 for 10 feet of speaker wire and less than $100 for ICs that you ... | |
| Yoiks, I'm amplifier confused. Since you have edged toward tubes, the new CJ MV 60 SE should be on the top of your list. It is a new version of the Premier 11, for all practical purposes. I was using a MV 60 and then used the MF 2500A for two weeks. The 2500A is as smooth, clea... | |
| ProAc Tablette Reference Eight Signature I can't say that my auditioning memory goes back to include your speakers. I have listened to the Refernence 8s against the 1SC. I like each for a different reason. The 8s are more forward and faster than the 1Sc and are just as clean and detailed... | |
| Revel M20 or Meadowlark Shearwaters? I have heard both. They are two very diferent speakers. Of the two, the Shearwaters offer a fuller and more dynamic sound. They are more involving. The M20's are nice, clean, full range, but not as exciting. They also require a stands. The Meadowl... | |
| $10 / foot speaker wire Cdc and others. Supra can be found at:www.jenving.se | |
| $10 / foot speaker wire Cdc-- I usually pick it up in Europe when I come over. Their US importer is in Californian, but I get the idea he likes car stereos. I am over here now and am bringing back almost 100 feet for some other people. It sells for 10 euro (now about $12... | |
| $10 / foot speaker wire Supra 3/4s Ply. It has out performed Geortz MI 2 and AG 1, Mapleshade and Analysis Plus (in my system). Clean, neutral, balanced, fast and musical. | |
| what's the best "mini monior" these days I am bouncing back and forth between the MV 60 and MF 2250A with a PV 14L SE. I am a monitor person for both room and sound reasons. I am using Penaudio Charisma, which is by far the best monitor that I heard in years. I gave up my ProAcs, Meadowl... | |
| Audio Physic Spark v. Joseph RM-22 sigs The AP will grate on you due to its tweeter. The RM 22 are a better overall speaker, but not that exciting. You may tire of them. At your price points look at Silverline and Dynaudio Contour 1.1 or used 1.3 SE. Do not go after the plain 1.3. Used ... | |
| Dynaudio 1.3SE question The 1.3SE is probably one of their better speakers. It does not necessarily need a sub unless you want floor shaking bass or if your room is large, say more than 15 x 25 feet. At that point I suggest a REL and make sure you set it up correctly. It... |
