Hi Spirit,I could relate to Gopher`s comment based on my own experiences, but keep in mind system synergy is key.I find the Atmasphere can come off very clear,fast and transparent but also lean and thinner in some systems.In comparison the 845 SET... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I get the feeling electrolytic caps are the default choice because they are cheap. They don`t appear to have much sonic value.Sound quality nearly always improves when they`re replaced. | |

| Crappy sounding "audiophile" LP's? Alonski,More than just a few people would nod their heads in approval of your "rant". Quite a number have 'been there and done that'.Regards, | |

I`m in line with the sentiments expressed so far.I love to listen to music, yet I do appreciate the audio components that can increase the involvement-emotion connection and thus the enjoyment factor.Like Jaxwire said, music is very personal and i... | |
| Ayre CDX-7eMP or Electrocompaniet EMC-1UP Sorry folks about my post. I thought I`d clicked over to Montejay`s system page. | |
| Ayre CDX-7eMP or Electrocompaniet EMC-1UP Hi Montejay,How are you?Have you read the Frankenstein review in the december issue of TAS?Did you ever try the Takatsuki 300b with your amps?It`s a premium tube for a premium SET amp like the Frankenstein.Regards,Charles. | |

| Are Monoblocks better than Multi-channeled amps?? bondmap,I would agree a top level and high standard built stereo chassis would likely out perform a modest design and built monoblock amplifier.However when companies offer both choices or go 'all out'their monoblock version is the upper tier ampl... | |
