| Distance from the front not the rear wall? Tiofelon,Welcome to the subjective(but fascinating) worid of High End audio. there`s a modicum of "right" or absolute answers, i.e. tube or solid state, digital or analog, silver or copper etc. If possible try moving you listening position and com... | |
| Some impression on Zu Omen Definition Hi Morganc,What was the cause of your ground loop issue?The Frankenstein/Dodd preamp sounds very interesting. I`d imagine it`s quite transparent and live like.Congratulations! This sounds like an exceptional system you`ve put together.I`ll tell yo... | |
| Tenor 75 Wi OTL I`ve been told by some who are familiar with the Tenor that they sound excellent. For 6 grand you may have hit the sonic jackpot.Your plan for a simple fan installation may solve your conern about heat.Best of Luck, | |
| Ocellia speakers and power Rsf507,You should contact gon members glide3 and Silbelius. They`re both owners of the Tonian Classic 12.1 and could provide first hand information regarding the bass performance. | |
| Some impression on Zu Omen Definition Gte357,Congradulations with your new amp. The 300b is a very good tube, but keep in mine there are quite a variety of flavors among them. They can sound very different from one brand to another ,i.e. frequency extremes,dynamics, midrange tone,harm... | |
| Coincident Dragon Amplifier David12,He selected the VAC70/70, believe me he`ll be fine. | |
| Coincident Dragon Amplifier Al,This is one situation where there`s no bad choice either way. By all word of mouth accounts, the Dragon MarkII is simply phenomenal! However the VAc 70/70 I know pretty well and it`s a genuine all time classic amplifier. These don`t grow on tre... | |

The Frankenstein is a brilliant amp but it won`t be ideal for everyone`s taste or system(nothing is). For what you`re seeking, the new Dragon MKII would suit your preference i.e. more bass w... | |
| My system is too loud Agree with the above posts, there`s excessive gain in use for that high output cartridge. | |
| Dollar to Satisfaction Ratio not met. James,I must agree with the very thoughtful and wise posts above. Your ears have told you the truth, those two componemts don`t match! plain and simple fact. Just except it and move onward. Wanting something to work is not going to solve the problem. | |
| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? Learsfool,Well said indeed, my only point with the accuracy via measurements position is that over reliance on measurements rather than one`s ears is folly. Measurements certainly have a contribution, but pale in comparision to what one can hear(t... | |
| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? Onhwy61,He has A very nice system, as do many of the other posters on this fun thread. But what makes his system anymore "accurate" than the others? | |
| Does 'Accuracy' Matter or exist ? 2nd request, would someone from the"accuracy" camp kindly give us an example of a suitably accurate component or system that satifies their requirements? | |
| Some impression on Zu Omen Definition Hey Paul,I know what you mean in regards to curiosity. The First watt amps intrique me based on their very simple(I love) design and reviews/word of mouth reputation. I have absolute passion for my Coincident Frankenstein 300b monoblocks, but woul... | |
| Speakers for a 15w 6v6 integrated amp? Given your musical taste, I`d give strong thought to the Omega,Tekton or Zu speaker lineup. |
