| Multi channel preamps for Movies I HTS is a great processor for the money but it is still digital. I was thinking moving to analog would give me a smoother more liquid less digital presentation. I am accustomed to listening to tubes on my big stereo. I have 5 to 10 times more mon... | |

| Rega Saturn or Sony SCD-XA5400ES ? I have a Sony SCD-XA5400ES running single ended with Nordost SPM cables which I like very much. I don't know which model Rega I have heard at the dealer when auditioning speakers but I preferred the Sony. | |
| Good upgrade from Levinson 33H's Improving your environment can add greatly to your sound quality. I just added two 20 amp circuits for my power amps using 10gauge with ground wire. The difference is large. I have blacker back ground and smoother definition. I also have moved my ... | |

| Classe 350 vs Pass Labs X600.5 I was reading on the Pass web site and noticed on the Lit option there is a statement Leaves Class A at pk Watts: 80 for X600.5 Where did you get 170 watts for class A? | |
| Classe 350 vs Pass Labs X600.5 Let me ask this in terms of the Savoys, what if you throw in the Pass XA200.5 and the Bryston 28SST into the mix. Which would better? And why? I heard the Bryston will not generate a lot of air around strings but may have better control of the bas... | |

| Hum from Grado on LP12.. Better carts to consider? I have a Grado "The Statement" on an old Linn LP12 which I bought new in 73 or 74 can't remember. I now have an Itok arm which was not original. I have absolutely no hum. My dealer was a Linn dealer for many years and sold Grados with Linn tables.... | |
| Sony SCD-XA5400ES owners question I am not sure. I was thinking dual-differential in structure. I have a Mark Levinson DAC and transport. I was expecting the same. | |
| Sony SCD-XA5400ES owners question I forgot to add the balanced output seems to be at the same level as the RCA connect. Usually XLR is a lot higher.It is strange. | |
| Sony SCD-XA5400ES owners question Are most people running the SCD-XA5400ES single ended or balanced? Is the unit fully balanced. Mine is real new and I am trying to sort it out but it seems to sound better single ended. I don't have matching cables both XLR and RCA. I have the uni... | |
| Need help with Tube Test TV-3B/U You are correct it is a typo. I used 0 not 8 for the cathode. | |
| Need help with Tube Test TV-3B/U Thanks for the link to the manual. I was able to figure out how to test for a shorts. The problem seems to be my tube. I don't under stand because the tube came out of a working unit. I wonder if some units only use one triode in the tube. This wa... | |
| Levinson 390s -- intermittant loud cracking sound Is this the first balanced connection in your system? I have a 36S and one channel quit. The Mark Levinson service center put it back in top shape.
