| The revolution has begun! Yawn. | |
| Time to do house cleaning. Put it all on Craigslist now. After the 1st of the year many potential buyers will be broke. | |
| What now? For $3k you can purchase a pair of Martin Logan Spires used that will blow you away. I’ve seen several sets available for sale recently. But you won’t drive them with a receiver. Great speakers. Nothing near them at that price. Originally $9k new. | |
| Mid-fi tube vs high-end SS @lowtubes is a sage! Best advice I’ve read in a long time! | |
| Has anyone been able to define well or measure differences between vinyl and digital? Finally, after all this science, we get to enjoy the music. Imagine that. | |
| Tube amps and a Stradivarius Yes, in the end, it’s about the music. What’s it sound like? Hmmm. | |
| Help recommend a good tube preamp Any BAT preamp is good. Never had a bad one. | |
| Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll No. Never ditch Class A amps due to heat. It’s winter! Enjoy the heat. | |
| Only two tracks to test your system, forever! John Coltrane - Blue Train Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue | |
| Where should I go from here with my digital front end? I’m happy I never got into streaming. Sounds like another audio rabbit hole where you can spend $1000’s. | |
| Digital is far better than vinyl The OP is either seeking clickbait, or is too ignorant to seek knowledge on quality vinyl. And no, I’m not referring to a $10k rig. I don’t have that type of vinyl investment. But even I understand the merits of decent vinyl. Buy an $1800 Marantz ... | |
| To preamp or not to preamp. That is the question. You’re running a Forte 4a? Well good for you! I had a pair of them in monoblocks. Or were those the 7a’s. Can’t remember. Anyway they were great running ML’s! | |
| Primaluna or not Primaluna All of these swaps and comparisons. This hobby is endless. But I’m done purchasing tube amps. And that’s a blessing. One is enough. | |
| Primaluna or not Primaluna @simna , You’re all set then! Another benefit of the PL’s is they’re auto bias, which is a big plus. Best affordable tube amps without a doubt! | |
| Primaluna or not Primaluna @immatthewj , I found mine on eBay out of the UK. $220 for 4. Brand new in the box. Clean living? |
