| Your thoughts about ATC loudspeakers Lindisfarne is absolutely correct. Lots of really good power otherwise you are wasting your time and lots of money. I've not listened to this exact model, but have listened to much of the line and it is quite consistent with needing very exacting ... | |
| Is 50 wpc SS NAD enough to power Spendor SP1? The Germans have a great word for that.......jain. Yes and no. Drive yes, will you fall in love with the sound, no. These speakers really like very heavy stable current. You throw something really solid behind them and they wake up and show you th... | |
| REGEN by UPTONE AUDIO I'll preface this with an apology if wrong, but this seems rife with infomercial. | |
| Son needs a 2 channel amp cheap From the 80s: NAD 3020, Rotel, Luxman, Yamaha all with phono. | |
| Lars had a stroke. Another reminder that tomorrow and your health are never guaranteed. I'm twenty years in the medical field and it is absolutely frightening how many suffer a stunning early disability and/or demise. That trip you've been thinking about to the Lake... | |
| Transcendent Sound Grounded Grid Preamp upgrade Thank you for your insightful remarks. | |
| Connecting amp to vintage speakers This is where Mapleshade speaker wires are terrific. They sound good and of course their small awg works without any modification. If you are not in love with the 14 gauge wire you have, that is your solution. | |
| Is Quad an upgrade from Rotel? Hummmm..... Quad makes both SS and tube gear, so the question is quite ill- defined. The SS Quad gear is very British with a laid back presentation, not particularly 3- dimensional and oft times rolled off top end. Some would say polite. The tube ... | |
| Destat CDS Cannot speak for the Furutech Destat, I use the Bedini and it works. I've done double blind tests with friends who are far from audiophiles and they confirm improvement. I've simply used two identical CDs, one treated and one not and switched them... | |
| Upgrading KEF 104/2 Cross Overs I've done surgery on about a dozen pairs of speakers by simply upgrading the crossover components and wiring. First, do only one speaker at a time so that you can look at the untouched crossover for reference in case you get lost. I sketch a diagr... | |
| Need some DH 500 caps are probably on borrowed time. I sold both of your units in the early 80s and while both were best buys then.....it's time to move on. You might consider an integrated for that kind of coin. Odyssey sells the Cyclops for that and a use... | |
| Need 3 meter for Benchmark DAC to VTL Amps Obviously, lots of good choices. You might consider the Signal Cable Resolution. I believe they are silver plated copper. In any case, they sound very good, are reasonable in cost, returnable and well constructed. The VTLs also like certain Mogami... | |
| good integrated amp for around $500 Integrated? Audio RefinementReciever? Luxman Posting of a confusing post....hey, I live in Washington State.....you do the math. Good luck with your hunt. | |
| Fi Hi Rack & 9632; Quadraspire ?? & 9632; TAOC ASR II ?? Can only respond to Quadraspire as I have the Suniko Vent. Spectaclular in every way. Used Target for years and thought they worked well........until that fateful day. Quadraspire controls the bass very well, cleaned up the midrange. Vibration con... | |
