| Marantz SA-10 arriving Monday! I purchased a refurbished SA-10 from Music Direct last year. I got a three year warranty with it. Unfortunately its been in the shop twice since then. Frustrating to say the least but I'm hoping Marantz will eventually sort this out. Its a wonder... | |
| Audio Note Cobra and Cambridge Audio MXN10 Thank you all for your input. That's what I was thinking the issue was as well but wanted to check to make sure. I will reach out to CA and see if there are any options. In the meantime is there a streamer that you could recommend for less than $4... | |
| power cord for pass 250.8 I'm using a SR Galileo UEF on my Pass XA30.8. Very happy with changes it brings. Bass is smoother and more defined with a much more refined top end. Noise floor is lower too. Lots of options out there. Good luck | |
| Thinking of upgrading speakers from ProAc 3.8 I have enjoyed in my system for 23 years. You won't go wrong with either speakers. From some of the reviews I read the D-48R's are more euphonic whereas the K series is more detailed and neutral. I think it does come down to personal preference. Personally a big fan of the D-48R when I he... | |
| Marantz SA-10 Hi Jafant, I'm going to put it up for sale, most likely next week. Let me know if your interested. Thanks | |
| Marantz SA-10 Goose, congratulations on the D-07X! I think your going to be thrilled with it. I’ve heard nothing but great things about Luxman. Keep us updated please! Jafant, my system consists of a Pass Labs XA30.8, Aric Audio Super 6SN7 (with upgrades done ... | |
| Marantz SA-10 Just thought I would circle back and answer my own question. I pulled the trigger on a Marantz SA-10 from Music Direct last week. Its been breaking in since Thursday and it has about 30 hours on it. More time is needed but I can give some early im... | |
| What's been your experience with New Chinese 6SN7 tube options? Running the Linlai 6SN7 in my Aric Audio preamp. They match or better many of the NOS tubes I have tried. They are my "go to" tube for the Aric. | |
| Which preamp to go with pass labs x150.8 +1 for Aric Audio. I'm using his Super 6SN7 (with upgraded PS and volume control) with my Pass X30.8. A great combo and big step up from my previous preamp, CJ CT-5. Aric has great customer service and can taylor his preamp to your needs. Good... | |
| 6SN7 and 6SL7 tubes recomendations (Cayin A88T integrated) +1 on the Linlai's. I have a pair of Global Elites in my Aric Audio preamp and have to say they are really nice. As good or better than some of the NOS one's I have tried. | |
| Linlai E 6sn7 tubes I'll throw my hat into the ring as well. I received my Linlai Global Elite 6SN7 a couple of days ago. Got less than 10 hours on them but I have to say I'm impressed. Very open and transparent without any harshness or edginess. Some of the best bas... | |
| Finally, I´ve got the Proac D48R speakers !!! Congratulations on the D-48R. They are wonderful speakers. | |
| Looking for warm tube preamp (should pair well with Pass power amp), budget $6000 I'm running an Aric Audio Super 6SN7 right now on my Pass Labs XA30.8. Its a wonderful match. I would look into the Aric's Motherload II as its in your price range and might be worth your consideration. Good luck | |
| Marantz SA-10 Jafant, Overall I'm very pleased with the Modwright. Its takes some effort to get the best ouf of it but get it right and you'll be rewarded. Its more the logistics, the extra power cord, power supply and umbilical take away precious real estate.... | |
| Who Offers a Highly Musical Preamp using a 6SN7 tube and a remote? Another recommendation for Aric Audio. I'm running a Super6SN7 upgraded to near Motherload II status. Without a doubt one of the best audio purchases I've made in a while. Aric is pleasure to deal with and will work with your budget. Good luck... |
