| Best way from hard drive to DAC? Go to the Empirical Audio website. Lots of great information and Steve Nugent is a great resource that can assist you in what you're trying to do. | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Oz-Unfortunately I stumbled onto Kevin just after I bought a Hagerman Trumpet, a great phono stage that has worked out well for me. Kevin built me a step-up for it using the Lundahls. It is an excellent value and has worked well with the Hagerman.... | |
| Mesa Boogie Tube amps interested in your thoughts Are you referring to the Mesa Baron (uses KT-88 tubes) that runs in pentode and triode (and combinations thereof)? | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Oz,I talked to Kevin yesterday and he is reviewing some stuff for me and then getting me a quote for a MkI version. He was familiar with you and I did see in some other discussion threads where you talked about the phono stage and TVC. I'm pretty ... | |
| Analog point of entry... For $3k you should be able to get a TT, arm, phono stage, cartridge, record cleaner, and supplies (making the assumption you buy the TT, arm and phono stage used). However, like I said, $3k can turn into $6k pretty fast. | |
| Analog point of entry... You could probably squeeze by with 3k, but if you're like me that will double quickly. | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Oz,I'm actually using the K&K MC step-up and like it a lot. I have to imagine the S&Bs are nice for a TVC. Thanks for the information. | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Oz,Which TVC are you using? | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Entrope,Thanks for the response. Do you know if Scott plans to sell Reference Line in the future. Would it be possible for you to email me his number. I would like to learn a lot more about this passive preamp. | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Bluemike,The thing weighs nearly 70 lbs. and there are very good reasons as to why it is high gain, so it would be easier just to fiddle with the preamp. My listening room is very small and I feel that in a larger space the 11db of gain on my Joul... | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Jeff,That is an option I will look into, but only after I rule out a passive altogether. | |
| Tube Research Labs Solid State Designs I have the Transistor Research Labs (TRL) D-225 solid state amp. I bought the first model and have not looked back. Extremely quiet and drives my Spendor 1/2e speakers effortlessly. If you live in SoCal you're welcome to come by for a listen. Also... | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps Entrope,I have heard lots of good things about the Reference Line passive preamps. I missed a 1A here on Audiogon recently. I understand Scott Nixon now owns Reference Line and I sent him an email to inquire about them, but got no response. The we... | |
| Goldpoint Passive Preamps I'm currently trying out an Electra Print PVA and a couple pairs of attenuators, EVS Ultimates and Endlers. The Luminous Axiom was recommended to me and the Monolithic passive/active, as well as the Space Tech Lab passive preamp are somewhat inter... | |
