| what is an ideal tube amp Get an Atma-Sphere S-30 and don't look back. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Well perhaps the email capability will return in the near future. In the mean time lets keep to the discussion limited to the LSA. I'd hate to see this thread go by the wayside. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Basically. Not sure if or when that feature will be coming back. I think the only way you can contact someone directly now is to ask a question about an item they have for sale. | |
| Need Advise for open sounding monitors ESS is back with some nice sounding and affordable monitors. The LD-10S Uses the air motion transformers and 10" woofer with 8" rear mounted bass radiator. I had a set in here recently and was quite surprised how good they sound. | |
| what is the best sounding speakers for under 5000. Yep Audiokinesis. Amazing value for the money. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? 2549, two conductor with shield. The two conductors are soldered to the pin and the shield is the return. | |
| Passive volume regulator suggestions If you absolutely need XLR consider the Warpspeed, that is what I use for XLR. it will be adequate for your needs but in comparison I do not think it is better than the Lightspeed. Another option would be to find one of the Reference Line passive ... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Yes I use Mogami RCA's from the LSA to my RM-10. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I think your Audience cable would work fine as I recall it to be low capacitance. Personally I'm using a set of Mogami interconnects I bought here on Audiogon. They are extremely low capacitance. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? The input sensitivity and input impedance of your amp are fine. The input impedance is 47k ohm which is at the lower end of what the LSA likes to see but will be just fine as I've used mine with lower. The output voltage of your Rega DAC is fine t... | |
| Sota Sapphire Series III replacement power supply Why not call SOTA and either get the information you need or get a replacement from them? | |
| Enough SET Power for Rock and Roll IMO 300B would probably be your best and safest bet given the levels you wish to attain at the distance from the speaker you listen at. The 300B will supply more headroom for the peaks.Not that a 45 or 2A3 wouldn't work, but we manufacturer both a... | |
| Not ENOUGH GAIN Newbee, I can't speak to others designs but in ours we are using transformers at the input to significantly increase voltage gain as the signal is fed from the source component (ex. 2V source output becomes 16V). The 10K potentiometer is placed af... | |
| Not ENOUGH GAIN A pre-amplifier's amplifying section comes after the volume control and is always seen by the amp at its full output (gain).Very often the case, but I can think of two manufacturers that implement the volume control after the gain section of the p... | |
| Not ENOUGH GAIN Agree with Jeffreybehr. I much prefer the volume control past the 12 o'clock position and closer to 2 or 3 o'clock for normal listening. I assume 7 is at the top end of the range. What happens when you move the volume control higher, say all the w... |
