| What speakers do you use with your SET's? I use the Carolina Audio JSM speaker that uses a single driver (Jordan JX92's) in a transmission line design with a pair of Wright WPA1.75 mono blocs (type 45's giving 2w/ch). Since the JSM is a monitor, I use a REL sub with it. One could use the ... | |
| Question on preamp matching with Wright 3.5 2A3 am I agree with Howard (and several others) that the Wright preamp works wonders with Wright amps lending body to the music. I use the Wright pre with the Wright 1.75's (type 45 tubes at 2w/ch). I also tried and enjoyed the Eastern Electric Minimax p... | |
| Efficency- Low vs. Hi? I agree about the mismatch. My view (with all its biases):PSB Stratus Mini: described as having great bass (for size)Cambridge Audio: UK company with the "British sound" (warm)Not having heard either of these, I'd expect an overly warm tonal chara... | |

| Sonic Impact T-Amp giant killer? I believe they sell for 39.95 and you'll need the power supply which is 19.95 (unless you use batteries). That makes it a $60 amp. Using a Pinnacle 12v power supply will give better midrange, a weak point of an otherwise very open and clean soundi... | |
| Digital harshness or Clipping? Mic preamp clipping is another posibility. Every singer I have ever recorded increases their volume as soon as you hit the record button despite the fact that you have checked levels for the loudest spots in a song several times to get a proper se... | |
| Need some help with speaker stands You might look at Atlantis Pros for $169 at Audio Concepts Inc (really fine folks). www.audioc.com/accessories/AtlantisStands.htm | |
| What is the standard for judging a systems sound? Gould's prediction that the composer, performer, and audience would all be participants in the artistic process when enabled by recording technology IMO has become a reality. We make the final contribution to the artistic event as it unfolds in ou... | |
| need headphone amp recommendations I own:1. Berning microZOTL2. ASL MG Head OTL3. HeadRoom Cosmic with Base Station One4. HeadRoom Little More Power (Premium Module)5. HeadRoom AirHeadThe Berning is definately my favorite. The HeadRoom amps are clear, clean, and sound like solid st... | |
| Is anyone using REL subwoofers with BAT tubed amp? From BAT web site: "... it incorporates all-triode zero-feedback topology, fully balanced operation...." As I remember, REL has a method for connecting a balanced high level input that would need to be followed. Alternatively, try line level input... | |
| Why so many Merlin VSM's for sale?? I sold my Merlin VSM-Ms but I think they are great speakers. Both comments above are right on target. They are very responsive to upstream components and require some time and effort for setup. That said, I probably would not have enjoyed them nea... | |
| flat speaker quandary Though I have no useful information regarding your speakers, I thought I'd suggest that I have found cables to be very important with an ART DI/O. Most recently I've used Cardas Lightning 15 coax, Audience AU24 coax, and Audience Conductor coax. E... | |
| Soliloquy or Von Schweikert VR-1 The Soliloquy is a fine speaker but I wouldn't place them that close to a wall with the rear port. A closed box would be a better choice though I have never heard the Von Schweikert. | |
| To preamp or not to preamp??? I've tried removing my tube preamp (which I don't actually need) but cannot even make it through one song before it goes back in the chain. I love what my Wright WPA12 does for my system (a more palpable musical presentation). | |
