| What is the best amplifier for Tannoy Kensington ? Mechans is right, you don`t provide enough information(music preferences,volume/listening level, room size etc.) for really meaningful suggestions.I love the 300b SET amps but your speakers will allow much flexibility of choice. What amp was drivi... | |
| Can 10W 300B tube amp drive Martin Logan Ascent i? You`re looking at a disappointing result with this match. This speaker is far too inefficient to work with your amplifier.Low watt SET amps can sound marvelous but only with appropriate speaker compatability.You have to avoid these types of power ... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Thanks Markus, better safe than sorry. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Hi Markus,Have you formed an impression with the VAC REN 30/30 and your Back Treasure tubes? | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR 24H365,Just for a scale of 'relative' comparison the differences between the two linestages were noticeable but not at all night and day. The insertion of the Takatsuki tubes were by comparison profound. The Frrankenstein-Takasuki is simply 'it' f... | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Hi 24h365,I compared the TRL Dude and the Coincident Statement Linestage on my system page in mid-december 2011.The Dude lived up to the hype and praise it has gotten.For its price it`s hard to go wrong. Ultimately I found the Coincident better ye... | |
| dCS to launch a reference USB to SPDIF converter Edorr , my apology to you.Reading your post I could`nt tell/appreciate the humor.You were joking but there are those who are dead serious with that attitude so I just wanted to express my opinion.Regards, | |
| As file resolution goes up sound level goes down? Getting more efficient speakers is moving in the right direction.Kenny you`re making the correct choice if you plan to keep the current amplifier. | |
| Amp and speaker matching. HI Grannyring,It`s hard to know sometimes,I suspect it depends on the particular tube amplifier. Two amps with the same power rating can in reality be night and day different(transformer,power supply robustness etc.). Jerroot and Ard`s experiences... | |
| dCS to launch a reference USB to SPDIF converter Jtech,Amen.This contrived 1% against the world is so pathetic. Do the best you can with what you have and stop being jealous of those who have more.Castro or Chavez could make a serious run for the U.S. predsindency it seems. | |
| Ayre V-Kxe and Thiel 2.4s Cal,I appreciate the followup information. I`m not surprised with the superior results you realized with the lower power Pass amplifier . | |
| Yamamotoa - Help Venus hifi was the importer when I purchased my Yamamoto DAC in JAN-2010. I`m not sure if Venus is in bussiness any longer. | |
| PS Audio PWT - cd transport Hifiharv, The PWT is available used on a fairly regular basis.It`s an absolute audio bargain at used pricng and worth every penny.This is simply a top tier transport. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Thanks Clio09. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Clio09,Thanks for the explanation. Low noise floor is one of the strengths of the Frankenstein. Just for fun I `d like to hear the Franks/Takatsuki (rather than with the Psvane Treasure 300b) compared to your new amp. I say this knowing the vast s... |
