| dac choice I'm using the Monarchy M24 now and have also recently put in Siemens NOS goldpin tubes (after about 3 weeks of the stock Sylvania tubes). This DAC has surprised me and may stay in my system. I have not tried the linestage and probably won't as run... | |
| Power Conditioner for your amplifier? All I can say is after some experimentation my amp is quieter through the RSA Haley than direct to the wall.BTW - I do not and cannot have a dedicated line. | |
| Information for Joule Electra LA100 Mark III Glad to hear the latest version of the LA-150 does not use the Russian tubes in the gain stage. I unfortunately sold my LA-100 MkIII recently as a result of having to downsize my system a bit to move into smaller quarters and truly miss the preamp... | |
| EAR 834P or Cary PH302 A bit more than the EAR. Might be worth getting the EAR, have Mitch Singerman mod it, then use the rest of the money to buy vinyl. | |
| Soundlab M1 and Alpha-Core cables Thanks again Sean. Dave is 40 miles down the road from me. Maybe I'll give him a call and chat with him to see if I can get a pair on a trial basis. BTW - Did the prices drop on the AC MI-2 cables. I was looking to get a 6 ft. pair (silver spades)... | |
| Soundlab M1 and Alpha-Core cables Sean,Thanks for the clarification. I have rather enjoyed the AC MI-2 cables over the last year or so. However, I have been interested in doing A/B comparisons against the AC MI-2 just for the heck of it. The Magnan's were on the list, but now I th... | |
| Soundlab M1 and Alpha-Core cables Sean -I'm a little curious about the comments you made on output impedance of the amp and impedance ratings of the speaker cables and speaker. I use AC MI-2 and from what I can tell from specs published on the website they are 2.5 ohms impedance. ... | |
| Product Review - Supra Sword Speaker Cables I just started reading about these cables today. I'll be calling Madisound to give them a try. | |
| Power Conditioner for your amplifier? I also use a Running Springs (Haley) with great results on my 225 watt amp. I found that when I plugged my amp straight into the wall (front-end in the RSA) I would get some faint buzz in the speakers. With everything plugged into the Haley it is ... | |
| First reflection formula? I asked the same question over on AA a little while back. I had seen the formula somewhere, then when I needed it I couldn't remember what site I saw it on:http://www.realtraps.com/art_room-setup.htmIt's down near the bottom of the page.If you rea... | |
| Preamp gain vs. poweramp sensitivity Thanks for the update Herman. I suspected the gain was very high, just didn't think it was over 30db. | |
| Preamp gain vs. poweramp sensitivity Thanks Herman, this helps quite a bit. | |
| Looking for moderate priced MC phono pre I recommended the Jolida to a friend of mine who just got into vinyl and was on a tight budget. I hooked him up with some NOS Telefunken 12AX7s and he's in love with this phono stage. I am quite curious about it myself as a result of all these com... | |
| Preamp gain vs. poweramp sensitivity On the other hand I have an amp with .8V sensitivity and puts out 225 watts (tested at closer to 300) onto 8 ohms. Can you calculate the gain. Thanks in advance. | |
| Stereo Tube Amps for JM Labs Electra 927 Be There are 2 Music Reference RM-9 amps for sale here now. Rated 100 watts, but put out closer to 125 watts. I bought one about a month ago after using a Cary V12i (sister to the six packs) with my Spendor 1/2e speakers. The Cary was great, but just... |
