| Thoughts on system change VTL to NuPrime ? Cspaldi,What is the likelihood you could do a direct comparison in your system? That's the ultimate solution. Generally speaking I find that a good tube pre amp/power amp provides the most "realism" listening experience but that's me. You may hear... | |
| How important is bass to you? Inna,I think most responders will agree with your preference. Bass is important as are all the frequency ranges. We want them "all" to be good. Given the context of the question,I place more importance on midrange than I do the bass region. If you... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1,I hope the Elrogs serve you well. | |
| JJ 300 B tubes or others ? Rebbi,At your stated price point you won't do better than the Black Treasure tubes(BT) IMO. When the BT was first available for sale they were 600.00 per pair from Grant Fidelity. Given their performance at that time(2009) they were worth it relat... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Hi Jordan,I think your Audion Golden Dreams would be a very tough act to follow. I understand your curiosity regarding the Lampizator 211 amplifiers, there's so much stellar audio choices available to tempt folks these days. I can imagine how much... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Hi Germanboxers,Our paths cross again LOL. We seem to have similar taste, this time the Elrogs. I didn't know you had the Lampizator Big 7 DAC. I thought you were using the Luxman DA-06 DAC. I suspect you'll love the Golden Gate, congratulations. ... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1,By all reports the Lampizator Golden Gate is a top tier DAC. I hope the Elrogs work out for you in this application and that there are no hum issues due to the GG's AC heating design. | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Dracule1,What George will attempt to do is match the Elrogs to the operation points of a particular amplifier. This is done with the cooperation of the Elrog factory. George's tubesusa.com has been mentioned on this thread several times. He has st... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Matthias,I find it quite interesting that the filament material so positively influences the sound quality of a tube. All I can do is confirm what I'm hearing, beautiful music reproduction.Charles, | |
| Review: Lahave Audio Khara Speaker Is it Luxman DA 60 or is it the DA-06? Either way glad to see you've settled finally on a system that meets your goals. Congratulations Bill.Charles, | |
| Any HE Speakers with Sonus Faber Sound? Best of luck with the Decware Zen Torii, it has a very good word of mouth reputation. | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Yes, the Takatsuki shouldn't be a problem at all, it adheres to all the Western Electric 300b specs. The Elrog with its thoriated tungsten filament has some deviations from the W.E. standard. I received some new recordings and listened to music fo... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup I'm surprised that Melody isn't more popular. Word of mouth says they sound wonderful with excellent construction as Keith confirms. Their cost is very reasonable, why they fly under the radar is a mystery. I wonder how they'd fare against the wel... | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Wyan,Do you rotate between your Frankenstein and First Watt J2 amplifiers driving your Voxative speakers?Charles, | |
| Elrog 300B vs Takatsuki 300B tubes Gary,Yes, Amtrans is very solid and reliable to deal with. After placing my order(via bank transfer) the Takatsuki pair, they arrived in only 2 days from Japan. |
