| Say a fella wants to build an SET monoblock based on the 300B.. @roxy54,Yes, the built quality looks excellent. That is why I was surprised the upcharge for this level of professional work is so modest.@lewm, Absolutely right, but I just assume that someone considering a low power SET would be aware of this p... | |
| What To Replace A Pair Of Lamm Ml2 Monoblocks With? Need More Power @nightfall,I believe that you will eventually find a suitable higher power amplifier for your current speakers. @Whart makes a keen point, your Lamm ML.2 is ’quite special’ and sonically won’t be easily equalled with higher power amplifiers with ... | |
| Say a fella wants to build an SET monoblock based on the 300B.. I didn't know the additional charge to build the Audio Note kit amplifier is only 10%. That's seems to me a very reasonable deal unless someone wants the satisfaction/challenge of doing the assembly themselves. Charles | |
| Say a fella wants to build an SET monoblock based on the 300B.. The Audio Note amplifier kit is granted more expensive than the other good 300b kits mentioned above. In my opinion it’s money well spent. 1 Very sturdy and high quality aluminum chassis. 2 Very good quality standard parts. High quality power supp... | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk "Why fuss with tubes in an amp?"+1 @ozzy62 reply. Charles | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk @devilboy, That is my point as well in an earlier post. It’s asking a lot of the Blackhawk preamplifier section to equal the highly praised Don Sachs let alone be superior to it. Thus my interest in the upcoming audition. Same can be said in regar... | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk @devilboy, You did it the right way. Get the component into your home audio system, then listen and judge. Turns out the Raven Audio amplifier wasn’t for you but it has worked out successfully for others. This can be said for any audio product on ... | |
| Tad me1 with 25w SET tueb amp, is it possible? Yes, John Atkinson made it clear as day that the TAD ME1 is an easy speaker to drive . I can definitely believe it sounds very well will the Aric Audio and the Coda amplifiers. Charles | |
| Raven Audio Nighthawk IMHO the only way to really sort out which is better sounding is a direct comparison in one’s audio system. I can understand the appeal of a tidy single box integrated amplifier (convenient/fewer boxes). Both the NOSvalves amplifier and Don Sachs ... | |
| How do Bang and Olufsen stereo sound? Agree with the sentiments of @frogman. I owned a B&O turntable years ago and replaced it with a Well Tempered turntable which was a significant step upward. However the B&O was certainly a decent/solid product. Charles | |
| Tad me1 with 25w SET tueb amp, is it possible? @cleopt15, 1 You confide "I don’t need loud music "2 You listening room is small (10’ x8’) and by default your listening distance from the speakers will be relatively close.John Atkinson who performed the Stereophile measurement testing wrote, "Th... | |
| biamping with 75 watt solid state and 18 watt tube amp.klipsch rp600m...t @jayctoy, Thank you for your reply and additional detail. It seems that the Klipsch can be an exceptionally good sounding speaker when paired with properly chosen components and cables. I suspect It will sound truly captivating and engaging matche... | |
| Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience. I just came across this thread today and read it in its entirety. Very interesting and useful information. Wolf_garcia I especially appreciate your posting of listening impressions of the Klipsch Hersey III and IV as well as the Zu Audio Omen 2 sp... | |
| Now I am in a Delimma @jay73, I strongly support the idea of getting the speakers via Crutchfield for an in your system audition. The ability to hear them in your listening space is without question the best method. Your amplifier-Herseys-your room all interacting. T... | |
| Now I am in a Delimma @jay73, What’s the possibility of an in home audition with the Luxman and Klipsch Herseys for an extended listening assessment? It appears that the current series (IV) of the Heritage line is said to be a noticeable improvement of the previous mo... |
