| Greatest Songwriter of all time Tubegroover - I Second your nominations Tubegroover. I find it almost impossible to believe that with over 40 posts 2 mentions of Ellington and the Gershwins. And Hoagy too, don't forget he wrote Georgia too, and lots of other wonderful stuff. Ste... | |
| what is the best speaker for a flea power amp Not certain what you want as a speaker is a personal choice. Very important to have effecient speaker with fairly flat impedence curve for a SET.

| Question for Paradigm Owners, what speaker cable?? Miked: What makes you think your speaker is more important than your amp/power source in making this decision? It's called speaker wire, but it connects two components.Sincerely, I remain | |
| Best used amp for around 500 Sean. A classic combo you've got in your basement if I do say so myself. I run speakers I made myself. Based on Northcreek Rhythm Revelator basically (Northcreek.com).Both of mine are moded too - really just replacing stuff though. Mine is very mu... | |
| Fuse or braker for dedicated lines? Well, in Japan they argue endlessly over the best paper pulp to use for cones (Yes, paper is still considered the best in many parts of the world not afflicted with the marketing need to bring NASA materials into evereything ) and magnet materials... | |

| Vienna Acoustics vs Revel Studios? Walter: the "punt now pay later plan"... we've all been there....audiophilia at its best! And you know..sometimes I fell my whole life is on "severe back order" ...no wonder I love this madness. The music helps though, doesn't it?And thanks, good ... | |
| Do the Audio gods shine upon you? Do the Audio Gods shine on me? I have been very skeptical of this phenom for two reasons. One reason is just that's the way I am (skeptic)and second, almost everything seems better to me in the middle of the night. Anyone here like to read poetry ... | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? Speaker tweak: If your speaker is under 7-8k and for many more expensive. Upgrade the caps in the tweeter signal path. If you are really ambitious measure your woofer specs and retune your cabinet to it for max performance with flattest response.S... | |
| Best used amp for around 500 Add on to above post. Sorry. You will need a pre with the Dynaco (I suggest Bottlehead Foreplay kit) and if you are fussy at all about music for pete sake go with a two channel!!!!!! Forget 5 channels on that budget if you like music. I run an old... | |
| Best used amp for around 500 I'll second David99 on the Dynaco ST-70. Nothing touches it (even close) at the price and then some. Helps to have a little tube know-how but there are great dynaco web sites for help if you need it. A true entry level hi-fi unit. It will let you ... | |

| What is stopping the ultimate? Ehart. I'm not talking just about the amp's ability to throw out current in my post but I agree with you totally. Power (in watts) is voltage times current and you need both. Current is needed when the load goes low. I agree with you as far as you... | |
| What is stopping the ultimate? Tacs. There is a lot of truth in what you say. Why such direct things are not done is a wonder to me. Seems you like to think about these things. Answer this for me. Amp makers always measure distortion as voltage amplitude distortion , almost exc... |
