| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Maxmad,I just received Isochronism`s(Brett) new tubes (via Sophia) RP tubes last night, I 'may' get The Takatsuki tubes from Gsm if he decides to sell them. Will keep this thread updated, if all works out in the coming days. | |
| BPT 3.5, Audience aR12, or Equitech 1.5Q? Bigshutterbug,I`ll defer to you since you have experience with all 3 units. I just assumed the Equitech would be quite similar to my BPT 3.5 Plus(share balanced AC concept) I guess I was wrong.You are right, amplifiers are better with the BPT than... | |
| BPT 3.5, Audience aR12, or Equitech 1.5Q? Eugene81,I have`nt heard 2 of the the 3 choices.The BPT 3.5 I `ve owned for 3 years and it is superb. My entire system is plugged into it and the sound improvement is substantial. Every parameter improves with it`s use and I`ve yet to find a negat... | |
| Audio note Dac question I`m sure Grateful has his own opinion on the PS Audio PWT but in my experience this transport is stunning good! Transparent,very open and highly resolving. Best of all it is just 'natural' in sound and tone.At lease in my system it has 'zero' clin... | |
| Bricasti M1 - where is the music "For $7995 it should sound amazing"For some listeners it probably will. | |
| Bricasti M1 - where is the music Antigrunge,You make some valid points.Once those factors have been accounted for and if the DAC is the 'only' change(varible)in a system then differences become apparent compared to other units.I agree with Chesebert some DACs/CD players are just ... | |
| Thoughts on 845 set monoblocks "I generally favor the simplest circuits"I agree 100%, it seems simpler circuits=natural and purer sound more often than not. | |
| Thoughts on 845 set monoblocks Phil,As always I find your impressions insightful and enjoyable to read(you`ve much exposure and experience). I wonder how much is system related at times.I heard the Viva monoblock 845 paired with the Trenner-Friedl RA Box speaker(97db 2 way) and... | |
| Bricasti M1 - where is the music Chesebert, I`m very familiar with the sound of the Playback Designs(your reference) good choice. I know exactly what you mean concerning other digital players that present a sterile,clinical and non-involving sound(lacks emotion and 'soul').Three ... | |
| Thoughts on 845 set monoblocks Hi 213cobra,That was an interesting summary.Where does the Italian NFA(love the elegant looks) and the Dehavilland fit in this list? If I ever need(I don`t currently) more power the 845 SET is where I`d start.Regards, | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Isochronism,Abill is referring to Gsm`s Takasuki 300b which are`nt compatibile with his Ancient Audio amp. He`s not referring to your RP tubes sent to me. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Isochronism,The plot is indeed thickening. | |
| Favorite 300B: Sophia vs KR Gsm, Tough luck, Based on your brief listening session it still seems to match the raves of the 6 Moons review. This is a 'brand new' tube that I`ll imagine will only get better. My amp is auto bias and made to except the WE standard. I`m very int... | |
| .R.I.P. Don Cornelius I grew up watching Soul Train, it was must watch TV back then. I hope his family is ok, my sincere sympathy goes to them. | |
| higher or lower gauge for 3-6 feet XLR cables? Gago1101,Be careful,not all silver cables sound the same! Performance can vary just the same as with copper or any conductor. So much depends on purity of the conductor metal,insulation choice,construction etc.In my experience a well made silver c... |
