| TRL 595-how good is it? Alex,I would like to be put on the list for the 3910. I have a TRL modded component that I would like to compare it to. I am interested in your work and appreciate your comments here. Thanks | |
| TRL 595-how good is it? 711smilin,If I'm reading the information on the APL site correctly the 3910 is $3500 versus $700 or so for the TRL 595. Let's assume that the 3910 takes you 100% of the distance as far as sound goes and the TRL 595 is 70% of the distance. Are you ... | |
| TRL or VSEI Level 4 for Sony S9000ES Donbellphd,I would speak to Paul about the best use of your Sony. The reason he recommended me to use the Alesis as a transport is that the original board in the unit prevented TRL from implementing many of the mods they like to perform on the ana... | |
| AQ Anaconda to Nordost Red Dawn Go with the Red Dawn. It's everything you're looking for and you can get good prices on new ones. Email me for a contact. I'm not a dealer but just bought some and can refer you to the seller. | |
| TRL or VSEI Level 4 for Sony S9000ES I do not own a Sony, but TRL modified my Alesis ML9600 CDP, CRR, HD player and the results are astounding. Not to mention their standard mod cost is $550. It's hard to beat at that price. They are somewhat secretive about what they do. However, co... | |
| Need Help with Cable/Interconnect Recommendations I just went through this process for the first time in 10 years and did a combination of buying used, new, or highly discounted new. I ended up with Nordost Red dawn ICs, purchased a new digital IC and PC from VH Audio for what I think is a good v... | |
| spkr cable: copper, silver or combo/hybrid? Pmboyd,Sorry, I misread your post. From my research good silver speaker cables will present a lot of detail, but lack the warmth of copper. Since you're using hybrid ICs it may be worth trying the silver cables, but my Alpha Core/Goertz recommenda... | |
| spkr cable: copper, silver or combo/hybrid? I'm buying Alpha Core Goertz MI-2 Veracity. They have a Python MI-2 bi-wire as well that is in your budget. If you want to experiment they also have a Python Hybrid bi-wire, but it will cost you more. Like you I also use silver ICs (Nordost Red Da... | |
| Mod for Sony SCD-1 or Different Player? If you must mod it Tube Research Lab is the place to go. If you like Sony you may want to check out the other Sony CD players they have modded. This way you can keep your existing Sony stock. The TRL Sony 595 has gotten a lot of notice and great r... | |
| Which of the following preamps? The AES products are a great value and if you're willing to go a little higher there is a Cary SLP-88 on Audiogon for $950. | |
| Would a new cd player make a difference? I used to own Kyocera products and thought they made quality gear back in the day. I was especially pleased with their top of the line tape deck that was literally a Dragon (Nak) slayer at about half the price. I was in a similar situation just a ... | |
| Musical Fidelity A300 mod by Tube Research Labs Lkdog,When talking to Paul about the Alesis he explained that major improvements could only be made on the digital side and that they could not do the things that they would normally like on the analogue side as the board in the Alesis prevented i... | |
| CJ Premier 18/Cary slp 98-which is closer to PF-R? Kops,What tubes are you using/tried with the SLP-98? I'm using an original Electraglide pc right now, but am looking into a VH Audio Airsine, Michael Wolff, and Electraglide UK (seems like there are some good deals on these here). I'll check into ... | |
| Musical Fidelity A300 mod by Tube Research Labs I just purchased a TRL modded Alesis ML9600 (using as a transport only per Paul) from a third-party (recommended by Paul) and I'm amazed at how the sound improves daily. After some email conversations with Paul I'm convinced that they will mod my ... | |
| Need advice on speaker cables Loonytunz,Thanks for your help. I did see that discussion on the AC site, as well as the RCs. I did not know that the RCs were in fact the network, this clarifies it. It is rather simple, although the Merlin set-up looks pretty cool. I take it the... |
