| PS Audio PPP vs. Velocitor vs. BPT 3.5 Hello,Danyal I have owned the BPT Signature Plus 3.5 for 14 months and it is wonderful. It has elevated the performance of my system across the board. The sound floor is lower as promised with a very noticable improvement in low level detail,ambie... | |

| Single Ended-Parallel or PP Class A Tube Amp? i agree with paul, the impedence curve of your speakers and the quaility of the amps power supply and it`s transformers matter more than a strict power requirement.

| Recommend 300b tubes for Frankenstein Amps AbillI have about 500 hours on my Shuguang Treasure Series(Black glass) tubes. They sound wonderful and have been reliable.I got them from Grant Audio for 600.00 per pair, not cheap but I have no complaints. The Frankenstein MK2 amps are top tier ... | |
| Up sample or non upsampling which is superior Hi Levy03My gut inclination is toward native and non filtering playback as I like my components simple and straight forward.

| SHOW attendees: please post speaker reports here Greai sound, the Trenner-Friefl RA Box speaker with Viva amplifiers.

| Solid Silver rca's for tube amps I use the PS Audio Transcendent silver solid core I.C. and Slinky Links silver speaker cable with my Coincident tube amp and linestage. The sound is exceptionally open,transparent and with a slight overall warmth and full texured tonality. | |

| Sounds better at home GrimaceI know what you mean. A few weeks ago a friend and I went to a local jazz club in Detroit, the legendary Baker`s Keyboard Lounge. This club has excellent sound but for what ever reason they decided to use a speaker system to boost the bass ... | |
| Which matters more, DAC or transport? Based on my own experience both obviously matter but I would say transport 70% and the DAC 30%. There is nothing a DAC can do to compensate a poor performing transport. It all depends on a superior signal. | |
| What is it about the Cary SLI-80? AzaudYOU sound as if you were happy with the Cary what caused you to switch to the Frankensteins and how do they compare? | |
| How loud do you like to play your music? Most of my music is acoustical jazz small combo ie quintets and sextets which usally includes a piano. My range is 65 to 80db with 85db plenty loud. I still want to hear fine music 20 years from now. |
