| HOLO Audio Spring DAC: Affordable discrete R2R Multibit Dac, could be a winner. Hello Greg, I had mentioned this in an earlier post. My friend has the Bricasti SE and I have the Yamamoto YDA-01a DAC. He uses a MAC computer set up and I use the P.S.Audio PWT.Charles, | |
| HOLO Audio Spring DAC: Affordable discrete R2R Multibit Dac, could be a winner. Jon,My friend will audition the Spring DAC in his main system. It will be used with his Absolare Altius preamplifier. If I’m able to hear it in my system it will used with the Coincident Statement Line Stage. Either will most definitely reveal the... | |
| Joule Electra preamps and amps. What is your impression? Inna,I was going to recommend that you get in touch with Thaluza via email. I glad he saw your thread. I trust his listening impressions and judgement. Charles, | |
| 2A3 Tube Opinions Arthur, Regarding el 34 amplifiers I heard a Jadis this year at Axpona and it was "very" good sounding. I'm partial to SETs but I could certainly be happy with the Jadis given what I heard. Charles, | |
| 2A3 Tube Opinions Hi Arthur, I didn't mean to exclude the Line Magnetic amplifier. I was under the impression that you had sold it. You don't have an "issue" just exceptionally good taste 😊. Selling the Dartzeel is a bit of a surprise. Art, when Jeff Day (Positi... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Garcia,How about we all as gentlemen agree to disagree as mitch2 graciously suggested? Everone's position pro, or con has been duly acknowledged at this point and the redundant back and forth name calling is stale.Best Regards,Charles, | |

| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Acman3, wrote "I have never seen a helpful troll" Beautiful! It could not be said any better. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Hi Frank, I have many of the Harold Land recordings you posted but not the "Hear Ye Hear Ye " with Red Mitchell. I’ll rectify that in short order 😊. Land is definitely underappreciated as a masterful tenor saxophonist. Thanks, Charles, | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Sorry folks but I just don't view Al as a troll, simply doesn't fit. Significant differences between his approach, substance and comportment as contrasted with Garcia. Two entirety different levels in my opinion. Charles, | |
| 2A3 Tube Opinions Arthur,A good source of NOS/used quality 2A3s is Vacuumtubes.com. They have single plate,dual plates, dua filaments etc.Charles, | |
| 2A3 Tube Opinions Hi Arthur,I must admit that I find your system and various amplifiers oh so interesting 😊. Does your Found Music 2A3 amplifier drive the Tannoys full range? What a sonic (I assume) contrast to the esteemed Dartzeel amplifier. You must be having ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Frank,Due to your efforts this thread has made many music lovers aware of a very good tweak, myself included. You should be justifiably proud. Different topic, Frank do you have any recordings of Hampton Hawes? He was a first rate West Coast styl... |
