NAT Se2Se amps
TimThanks,I had a friend's ASL 845 model 1006 in my system abouta year ago checking it out and that's what hooked me.I have neverheard my speakers produce the midrange so lifelike and crystaline.The low frequency info was lacking the tautness and ... 
SET with inefficient speakers
Tholt Yeah, Audiogon has given me the chance to "find" nirvana in this maddness.I don't roll amps often. I was once on the high power kick but found that's not always the solution in trying to get that "match made in heaven" sound.Well,with the ad... 
SET with inefficient speakers
Having recently purchased some NAT SE2SE amps which produce about 70 watts each to drive my Soundlab speakers has shown me that you MUST listen in your own system to achieve what you are trying to accomplish. The NAT SE2SE drive my Soundlabs with ... 
Audio Research SP-6 captive cord.......
Thorman Thanks,that's exactly what I wanted to know and it coincides with my thoughts. I'm going to bring it to my tech on tomorrow. That's a good idea if I decide to sell it in the future to place a IEC on the stock cord end and offer it that way...

Is Supratek Syrah still the deal of the century?

Sonics of tube modifications from Modwright

Opinions on Power Regenerators and Tube Amps

Tubey I have tried a few cables and have been around these parts for a few years since 1998.You can take it from a old "Geezer" .I've had Whales,Snakes,Zips,and been on a few Quests and a host of others and can say without reservations that Ridges... 
Modwright Platinum Truth Sony 999ES
Interesting because I am seeing many Modwright pieces going up for sale probably to upgrade to something else....if that's their interest so be it.It pains me to know that some of these guys are missing the very essence of this player without swap... 
Denon 3910 or Denon DVP 3910
Warrenh,I greatly appreciate you inviting me to contact you in a few weeks.I look forward to your opinions regarding your Exemplar unit.How long was the "waiting" list to have the modification done and how long did it take to receive the unit?The ... 
Denon 3910 or Denon DVP 3910
My thoughts on getting a "mod" player is simply because the specialist audio manufacturers usually "upgrade" their players every so often anyhow to keep abreast of new technology.Wouldn't it be wise (my reason)not to invest in a "new" player every...
