| Thoughts on Audio Research D70 Johnsonwu, sorry to hear of your travails. I would say that there must be something still wrong with your D115M2 if it sounds foggy and a bit slow. Did you replace all of the tubes and check the caps? | |
| Top big-name monitors current versions . Rgs92, IF you can find a pair of Sonus Faber Guarneri's, I would suggest giving them a listen. The original Hommage is my personal favorite, but the Evolutions (which I have not heard) are the latest in the line and look very promising. The Mement... | |
| Thoughts on Audio Research D70 Hi Johnsonwu, I may be misunderstanding your intent. If you are not planning on changing the circuit that is inherent in the amp, then there are no real risks that I can see. BTW, I agree with you that the circuit is superior to the Classic 120's ... | |
| Thoughts on Audio Research D70 Johnsonwu, I will be very interested in your outcome after you have modded your D115Mk2. WZ Johnson got the circuit very right, IMHO. Changing what he designed could be a risky business, OTOH I applaud your experimentation. | |
| 20 amp power cords vs 15 amp power cords Might want to look into a Supra Lorad 2.5. This cable is inexpensive and can be had in any length. The cable is a 13 gauge and more than sufficient for a 20 amp draw. I added a 20 amp Wattgate IEC and a Wattgate plug and AB'ed this against a Shuny... | |
| Thoughts on Audio Research D70 I pulled the trigger on an ARC D70mk2 about a year ago..here are my thoughts on it: http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/frr.pl?ramps&1277362082&&&/Audio-Research-D-70-mkII-Tube-amp-Agree with Tubegroover, I do not think one can buy a... | |
| Question About NORDOST cables Xtil6, you are right, it's one pair of connectors at one end of the cable X 2.BUT you multiply that by thousands( which I would expect is what Nordost sells of these cables) and you get the idea. A MAJOR savings for the company.Wouldn't be the fir... | |
| Review: Sonus Faber Guarnieri Homage Speaker I added a REL T5 subwoofer a few months back. This is a great sub to match up with the GH's. The sub is VERY fast and has decent extension. It took a while to get the blend correct, but after some experimentation, the GH's are now far more of a "f... | |
| Question About NORDOST cables Youngatheart, I think the marketing hype is getting to you a little bit, IMO.Nordost is now saying that they do not recommend bi-wiring with their cables...IMHO, that's a bunch of BS. Adding jumpers to a speaker that can accept bi-wiring is IMO fo... | |
| Has anyone used Supra AC connectors ??? Sabai, you say" It does not mean I don't have the right to my strong opinions"....I totally agree with you, BUT JUST so that you realize that they are your opinions and NOT necessarily everyone else's. I agree with the posters who say that the Sup... | |
| Has anyone used Supra AC connectors ??? Sabai, i notice that you never miss an opportunity to try and slam the Supra line, Why is that?? You always state your OPINION as a matter of fact that applies to all of us. You Sir, need to get a clue!BTW, I have no affiliation with the Supra Co.... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations please Joncourage, depending on budget, the Supra's that you mention in your other thread are very good for the money. If you are interested in a cable that is quicker and more able to support future upgrades upstream, then I would recommend some of the ... | |
| Differences between SR Tesla and Supra Sword Musicxyz, and conversely, my hearing is no worse either.Sabai and Musicxyz, I'm off this thread now.. | |
| Differences between SR Tesla and Supra Sword So Musicxyz, you are saying that all pro musicians are deaf!! You really believe that??? | |
| Differences between SR Tesla and Supra Sword Sabai and Musicxyz, there are many opinions on the sound, or lack of, of various pieces of gear including cables. Sabai puts absolutes into his opinion and insists that because he believes that he hears a better sound that this will be a universal... |
