| Tube integrateds & Tube Preamp from Conrad Johnson In your price range I would suggest a used cj premier 17ls series I tubed pre-amp. I believe there is one being advertised on audiogon as I write this (no relationship). I had a 17 in my system prior to upgrading to a 16 series II and it was very ... | |
| Sony scd xa777es vs scd777es GaryThe mods to the scd-1 turn it into a remarkable player. I had the SC3 / SCPS installed and transport caps upgraded and the improvements in the bass response and high end extension are truly amazing also the midrange detail has improved substan... | |
| Sony scd xa777es vs scd777es dbYup, I hear you....I too was skeptical but when I observed some of his work on other players I am convinced he knows his stuff. I did do some research and what he is proposing is actually more common than I first thought as other modders do some... | |
| Sony scd xa777es vs scd777es MetrallaI am not an electrical engineer but that circuit does not appear to be a very efficent design and one that would seem to degrade from the sonics. This is why the person modding my player (RAM east)wants to eliminate 90% of the output(audio... | |
| Where to buy SACD's ? I use tower records a lot as there prices are usually the lowest and the selection is very good; free shipping for orders over$20,00. Deep discount cd is good too but very limited selection.Chuck | |

| CLASS A AMPLIFIERS OnemugI agree with you that in the end its the music not specifications or circuit toplogy that we listen to. And one must keep ones eye on the ball when reading and comparing specifications when trying to make a purcahse decision. But it does lea... | |
| So You Think You Know Your Mozart? It is great to see interest in his music and classical music in general as it spans generations and centuries. I have no doubt that when the real Enterprise is exploring the universe they will still be listening to Mozart.Chuck | |

| Purpose of Decanters? Agree with all of your responses but me I just drink it why decant it.Chuck | |
| CLASS A AMPLIFIERS UnsoundI agree and I didn't mean to suggest that single ended amps couldn't produce high power what I mean't, and I may be wrong here, is that they don't produce the power output of a push-pull design e.g. Pass xa versus x series amps. And yes I r... | |
| CLASS A AMPLIFIERS UnsoundThat would make sense given the power output. I am sure the Gryphon is as well. It is interesting stuff as I have always found circuit design especially for audio interesting. I majored in Mechanical Engineering as I never had a mind for el... | |
| CLASS A AMPLIFIERS UnsoundI went to krells web site and he states class A topology. It would be interesting to know if it is push-pull, single ended or what specific design they are.Chuck |
