| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Hi Mapman,I have no doubt that the Bel Canto is a quite fine solution that fits your needs and I meant no criticism in any way. Ralph made certain points about the effects and consequences NFB that ring true in my listening endeavors and so it cau... | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D I'll respectfully disagree with Mapman 's assertion that modern implementation of NFB has been improved. When I hear amplifiers that utilize generous levels of NFB it's very apparent in that there's an artificial character quality of the sound. I ... | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Melbguy1,It's evident that you're experiencing some obvious stress and tough times in your life presently. I really hope your circumstances are properly addressed and things improve and you can resolve your personal crisis. Sincerely, Charles, | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D I also received a PM from Mel he didn't mention the recent passing of his grandfather however. The gist of it was he felt me and my "tube mates" on this thread were picking on him. At that point I thought this was becoming too personal and frankly... | |
| Calling all Horn lovers The Audiokinesis Jazz Module based on it's description, size and price would seem worthy of much consideration. I get the feeling that it would outperform many speakers that cost more. An added bonus it's very friendly to lower power amplifiers.Ch... | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Mel,I have no idea what's in someone else's mind/heart so I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. You and your family have my sympathy. Charles, | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Sorry meant grandfather not grandmother. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil There was an immediate improvement in the sound with the CAST installed in my speakers and also my DAC. The sound quality steadily increased over the next several hundred hours it seems. I'd say most of the change occurred in the first 100 hours. ... | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Discussing topics like this one should be informative and sharing various viewpoints but hopefully stay fun and lighthearted. Things can fall apart rapidly once ccomments turn toward the personal direction. Mel I'd assume that Wolf probably though... | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Ralph, Frogman and Pryso,Goods points about differences in general with tubes and transistors. I mentioned in an earlier post the relative artificial sound of some SS amps. The over emphasized image outlined sharpness and precision along with the ... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Sgr,You're fortunate to have a good friend who let you audition the Lampizator in your system, what's more conclusive than that? You eliminated all speculation and could purchase without second guessing or anxiety. Seems that you'll be very happy ... | |
| Will anyone do a report on the RMAF??? Bombaywalla,It seems that the ribbon tweeter (Total Victory speaker ) matches well with the new Coincident 845 SET amp you heard, ribbons can be tricky sometimes. Glad to know it worked out fine. | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Davide256," there is no right or wrong here" is of course true and I feel those participating on this thread would agree. People stating their preference for tube amplifiers isn't a condemnation of SS amps, this seems so evident to me. How many ti... | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Michaelkingdom,You have the right approach, just continue to listen to a variety of amps. If SS suits you better, go for it. There's definitely no right or wrong with either type of amplifier. Mel, your response is bewildering to me. I don't under... | |
| Tubes vs Solid State - Imaging, Soundstaging, 3D Hi Melguy1,I have no desire for this thread to become another "us vs them" scenario, there are many in the archives as it is . I have no interest in moderating comments either. Here's the deal, you find SS amplifiers better suited to your needs an... |
