| TRL 595 Discussion Died Years Ago Lithojoe,I actually thought Tvad's response here was very balanced compared to previous posts on TRL threads. This coming from someone who has flamed him in the past for what I felt were his unwelcome and unwarranted comments on TRL threads.The TR... | |
| Need advice on acoustic panels. Acoustimac has some nice stuff, even DIY supplies if you want to make your own.http://www.acoustimac.com | |
| advice on amp - $3,500 maximum budget I owned the Electrocompaniet AW-250 for a while and would have to echo Grannyring's comments on the sound. Warm yet with just enough detail and very deep bass. For solid state Electrocompaniet would be a good choice. | |
| Entry level tube amps? The RM-9 is a very good amp, but if you don't need that much power the Music Reference RM-10 at a very solid 35 watts could be a better choice. | |
| advice on amp - $3,500 maximum budget Any particular reason you started a new thread asking the same question you posted in another thread yesterday? | |
| Moscode 401 HR vs. 402 au vs. Butler TBD 2250 I don't know if it's a marketing gimmick or not, but as good as the 401HR is, the 401au is better IMO.I have heard the 401HR in comparison to the Butler 2250 and to me it's a toss up. They both are very nice amps. I think the Moscode has a slight ... | |
| advice on amp - $3,500 maximum budget I agree with Springbok10 and if I were you I'd consider the one for sale here direct from George Kaye. I'd even ask him for an in home trial on it, he may oblige:http://www.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cls.pl?ampstube&1248109824&/Moscode-401HR---t... | |
| Suggest speaker cable for long run...? See here:http://dedicatedaudio.com/inc/sdetail/20951I've just made a set of the WLM DIY cables and will be trying those along with some other cables I'm making out of a 30' spool of Belkin PureAV Silver Series cable that uses solid core PCOCC copp... | |
| MDF vs. Steel Speaker Stands I agree with Chayro, the Skylan stands would work nicely. That is what I use with my Spendor 3/1 speakers. I mass loaded them with a combination of lead shot and kitty litter. | |
| Incredible deal for speaker cable bottom-feeders Well I needed a long run of speaker cable and unfortunately 12 ft. is the longest length for a finished cable. So I just ordered a 30 ft. roll:http://www.beachaudio.com/Belkin/Av53102-30-p-45132.htmlI found a picture of what the cable looks like e... | |
| Suggest speaker cable for long run...? I'm going down this road myself right now. I'm looking at a run of 18 - 20ft. though. So far I've looked at building a set of WLM speaker cables as seen here:White Lightning MoonshineI already have the two twenty foot runs so it should be easy to ... | |
| NOS DAC or CDP? I can respect Muralman's opinions because I also felt that way at one time, but again there are benefits to OS designs IMO as well. Here is some interesting reading I have come across over the years (yes, perhaps embellished with some marketing la... | |
| NOS DAC or CDP? I still am a big fan of NOS DACs even though I'm not using one right now. I don't agree with everything Muralman said about OS DACs, because again a lot is based on design. In my case my transport is slaved to my OS DAC so jitter is not really an ... | |
| NOS DAC or CDP? You could pair the Valab DAC with something like the Monarchy DIP. The Monarchy DIP is a jitter reduction device that is used between the transport and DAC. Good news is that you could get both and still be within your budget. However, its another... | |
| sand versus shot in speaker stands Kitty litter works too. |
