| Alexx and Lamm ML1? @urowolf, "I guess the proof is in the pudding. Will have to try them with ML1’s. We can always cross the bridge later if it comes to it. Fingers crossed."Yes, just try the pairing and decide yourself. If the listening result is not satisfactory (... | |
| Modwright LS100 vs The followings @gte357s, With a question like this you can receive a whole host of replies and opinions. So I’ll chime in with mine. I believe that your current Modwright LS 100 is very good. As mentioned above changing tubes/power cable/fuse could very well fu... | |

| Japanese Audio @panchodxb, I am a very happy owner of the Coincident Frankenstein 300b SET mono blocks for nearly 12 years. I have no doubt that your Takasuki 300b SET is an outstanding amplifier. Perhaps one day I'll have an opportunity to hear one.Charles | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk Hi @chicagoblue1977, I don’t believe that devilboy deserves to be labeled as an axe grinder. He had an unsatisfactory experience with Raven Audio and has said so on this open audio forum. You and others have posted your very positive experiences w... | |

| Japanese Audio @jkeitel, If it is rated at only 4 watts output power, that suggests they are using ’very’ conservative operational points for the 300b. This usually means two things,1 Prioritizing sound quality over higher power capability. 2 Exceptionally long ... | |
| Japanese Audio I’ve happily used Takatsuki 300b tubes. I wasn’t aware that they now have an amplifier. It they perform to the level of their tubes then they’re outstanding amplifiers. Charles | |
| Are Preamplifier’s Relevant Today or just a Hinderance with Digital Playback ? Hi @sns,I haven’t heard the Coincident 845 Turbo SE but word of mouth reports are of very high praise. So I suspected its passive preamplifier section must be pretty good. Your comparison with the Coincident Statement Line Stage is informative. T... | |

| Japanese Audio @todd_segal, Given your observation, sounds as though conformity runs quite deep in the Japanese culture. Charles | |
| Japanese Audio @boomerbillione, I do not doubt that Japanese music lovers desire authentic reproduction of indigenous music and instruments. Jazz is highly popular in Japan so I suspect that they also crave authentic reproduction of trumpets, saxophones, drum ki... | |
| Japanese Audio @lukaske,Many good Japanese lower power tube brands, in addition to the Wavac, there's Zanden and Reimyo to add to the initial list. Very high quality. Charles |
