| Perfect speakers for audio Research Classic 30 I believe we'll be alive and well and carrying on with our lives. In a few months or so we can look back at this period for retrospective assessment. An opportunity to compare predictions with subsequent outcome.Charles | |
| Perfect speakers for audio Research Classic 30 Mario,I wish you and your country (I have very fond memories of my travels to Italy) the best and appreciate your sincere respect for our president. He and his excellent task force are working hard and doing their very best for American citizens.... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Considering the acknowledged superb sound quality of the Nenuphar, if Lii Audio drivers approach 90% of their performance that would be some feat given the cost differential. I hav6no idea if this is a possibility. Obviously someone who has acce... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Hi Steve, Your comments and listening observations are always insightful and interesting. Some people mock the idea of audio component burn-in and say it's merely psychological or just getting use to components/speakers sound character. I believe ... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure sakso,Your comparison of the 9 watt 300b amp and the MBL 300 watt amp is consistent with findings from other posters earlier in this thread. It drives home the unique design/intention of the very special driver used. An ultra controlled driver co... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Hi sakso136, Thanks for the update information regarding the Genus amplifier. The 845 is a wonderful tube in my opinion. I've heard the Elrog 845 in a friend's amplifier and it was heavenly. A few years ago I had the Elrog 300b in my amplifier and... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Sakso136,I've been very curious about Aries Cerat for several years as I'm very intrigued by their design approach and philosophy. I thought the Genus amp used the 813 DHT as output tube driven by the Siemens so called "super tube". Regardless I ... | |
| Quality Transport for my Dac fruitloopsr, In audio there’s always something better. However The original Perfect Wave transport is excellent (Redbook CD) in my opinion and won’t be easy to beat. It is one of P.S.Audio’s better products and has stood the test of time. I don’... | |
| Goldmund, not much inside, but ultra expensive. "I think it's fair to judge what's inside"I agree with this to a certain degree, but in terms of part quality rather than merely the quantity of parts. I feel that ultimately your paying for the sound quality, not how much can be stuffed into the... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure David,Your description of the essential differences between the two EML tubes is on the mark and I’d have little further to add. Both are excellent sounding but the mesh plate tube has to be placed in an amplifiers with friendly /gentle operating ... | |
| Goldmund, not much inside, but ultra expensive. From your description this suggests a very simple straight forward circuit and signal path. The ’few’ parts that were chosen (probably quite carefully) are likely very high quality and expensive. They probably believe that simple circuits sound t... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Hi David,Okay, "you've been there and done that" with regard to comparing the two 2A3s. So much for that😀. The EML is much more expensive and their performance should reflect that. Based on my experience with the EML XLS 300b I can vouch for the ... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure The JJ 2A3 40 has a reputation as a very good sounding tube for reasonable cost. I be quite curious as how it compares to the EML 2A3 solid plate (SP) David currently uses. David if you ever decide to try the JJ I’d be interested in how it fared a... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Hi David,Thanks for your insight into recent listening experiences. Does your T+A 300 watt amplifier offer any additional advantage specifically related to large scale symphonic/choral music at high volume levels? It's clear (to me) you prefer the... | |
| Cube Audio Nenuphar Single Driver Speaker (10 inch) TQWT Enclosure Agree, and this is why people must know their own listening expectations/ demands and intentions when attempting to pair amplifiers and speakers. This is truly an individual endeavor. Charles |
