| Is the Cary SLP-05 still relavant? @immatthewj, Thank you. | |
| Best standmounts with a 7" woofer/driver My choice is always the Totem Mani II. Although the bass driver is 6 1/2”, there are two in an isobarik formation. I haven’t heard all the stand mounts out there, but nothing else comes close. With great stands and a proper amp they are excellent,... | |
| Happy listening in SoCal Hair Gell Boy up in Sac will NEVER bring lower rates to our state, so don't get your hopes up. The lowest rate tier was 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM. If they dropped anything it would be that one. Thats the time for instance, when swimming pool owners run t... | |
| Is the Cary SLP-05 still relavant? If any of you guys are still around, help me out here please. I'm a little confused on gain matching. The gain is high, 24db with balanced outputs, on the SLP-05. What is the ideal amplifier gain, or gain range for optimum performance match? | |
| Rays Tubes Sounds very much like the Wathen Cryotone tubes, without the cryo. They start with chinese tubes and screen out the best ones. You get a good new production tube at a new old stock price. | |
| Integrated Amps @ tkrtrb125 Thats just rude and un necessary. I imagine WBF would punt you as well for being a hater. | |
| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp “I noticed today they raised the price from $5495 to $5895” Damn. I was saving up to order one. It was really pricey for me before, now it’s just too much, I’m out. I guess I figure out what’s the second best choice. Oh well. | |
| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp lynn _olson I hear you, airports and airlines can be overcrowded, and who knows what is floating around. Sorry to hear you need the rolling assist to get around in airport, those walks can be brutal in some airports. Is Amtrak really no more…? | |
| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp Wear a mask at the airport? Why, you plan on robbing the place😁 | |
| Revelation audio labs I ordered an umbilical cable from him for my Supratek phono stage. Got pleasant service, easy communication, and it was built and shipped in a timely manner. No issues whatsoever. I recommend him. | |
| VPI to What @desalvo55 What steered you to buying the MoFi Master phono? There are some great phono pre’s in that price range, especially pre owned units. I’m surprised to hear that you consider it an upgrade from an Allnic. | |
| Aurender A200 vs N200 The A200 sounds like a good way to go if you have no digital components as it has both needed components in one box. Or maybe the HiFi Rose. Fewer cables as well. I’m an analog guy who is looking into digital, which I find enormously confusing. Th... | |
| Spatial Audio Raven Preamp @donsachs I'm looking to purchase the pre within the near future, it seems to be the top option in my price range. Just looking at the Raven on the Spatial site I saw that it uses two 6AX4 rectifiers. If you don't mind me asking, why that rectif... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Markus, I have used the Phillips PQ, Phillips SQ, and Mullards. I also have Valvo and CEI, but I haven't run any of these two brands yet. I can't tell any difference in sound between the Phillips and the Mullards. Mick told me a while back that... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! Teajay Pardon me if I missed it here in the thread, but which of your pre amps do you prefer with the S5.5? The Aric Audio Motherload, the Coda 07X, or the SPL Elector? |
