| cary slp-98L vs bat vk3i My Cary SLP 98L has all the current mods, Jensen caps, hexfeds and is direct coupled. It has Raytheon VT231s in the rear sockets and 1952 Sylvania 6SN7GTs in the front sockets.Powercord is a TG Audio SLVR. It does not sound juicy, tubey or anythin... | |
| What headphone amp to buy-Sennheiser HD 600? Another happy CI Audio VHP-1/VAC1 user with Senn 600s and Cardas cord.This is really great for the $$$. Previous was a Maxed Out Home Headroom amp. | |
| Cary SLP98L Tube Rolling You need a pair of Raytheon VT-231s in the rear sockets. The front sockets will then be able to flavor your music/tone. For a full juicy presentation, try RCA VT 231s(lighter), or Sylvania VT231 (fuller). Best neutral tube is the 1952 Sylvania 6SN... | |
| Speaker recommendations for AES Six Pacs Get a set of Merlin VSMs for full range, or TSMs for monitors. These speakers are very tube friendly. I am presently using TSM-Ms with my Cary V12R which is similar to the Six Packs. I have all the power I need in triode mode which is the same 50w... | |
| Cary SLP 2002 or Joule LA 100 Mk III or?w/PassX250 I hope you are interested in used SLP 2002. The 2002 has been discontinued by Cary. | |

| Von Schweikert VR-1; What Amps are People Using? I bought a pair of VR1s for my office system. I paired them with two blasts from the past, Rotel 971 integrated and CD player. With Analysis Plus Oval 9 speaker wires, and Silver Audio Hyacinth IC, they are very dynamic, and sound good even at low... | |
| Dynaudio Audience 42 ot Triangle Titus with Rotel Thanks guys,I thoight that might be the response, but wanted some experienced ears to assist me since there no dealers for either here. Now if the Dyn owner/seller would just respond to my Email. | |
| Need tube amp suggestion VT100,MB-125,Cary V12 If you like one big amp, go with Cary V12R. It has more than enough power in 50wpc triode mode for my more difficult to drive B&W N804s. If you want to save some money, but loose the 100wpc ultralinear mode, get the AES( Cary too) Six Pack mon... | |
| Need tube amp suggestion VT100,MB-125,Cary V12 I have never had any problem with Cary service. I really love my V12R. It was originally a V12i, but I got Cary to upgrade to an R. It didn't take them a week, but I didn't wait for shipping since I am in the RTP area and delivered amd picked up m... | |
| Review: TG Audio High Purity Silver (1 meter) Interconnect I took the alternate route. I moved up from Luminous Audio Synchestra Signature to TG Audio High Purity ICs. I'm too cheap to pay Nordst prices, and thought I would be shipping Bob's new $800 IC back to him. No way!! I ordered his speaker cables a... | |
| Amplifier Recommendation for B&W Nautilis 804 I have been very happy with Cary SLP 2002 & V12 driving my N804s in triode @50wpc in my 11'x13'room. N804s are made for small rooms like mine. For tweaks, remove speaker and tweeter covers. Tweeter covers are magnetic attached. The Sound Ancho... | |
| Using a good preamp with headphone amp worth it? I had a Headroom Maxed Out Home headphone amp. Since I used it for all headphone listining, I never used the headphone jack on my Cary SLP 2002 preamp. After about 18 months of using and tube rolling the Cary pre,one night, I just decided to try i... | |
| "Best" cable for BW N.804 I have been very happy with shotgun biwire Analysis Plus Oval 9. I am going to try TG Audio HSR pr with jumpers. They are on order. | |
| New system help TUBES!! Try the AES DJH pre and the new Six Pack mono amps. That would be the less expensive plan. Top shelf is V12i and SlP 2002 Cary. |
