| Your favorite KT 150 based amplifier? @redwoodaudio Yes, I do own a Jadis Mk2..utilizing KT150's. It's a great amp. | |
| Your favorite KT 150 based amplifier? The new Jadis Mk 2 amps that utilize KT150's are superb. | |
| Nordost users....time to upgrade! @tablejockey Now that's some bling!!! I would imagine that some lucky lad has convinced his better half that these need to be in his listening room, overlooking his garage full of Ferrari's and Lambo's. | |
| So damn hard deciding which tube preamp to buy! CAT Renaissance BPX with phono. IME nothing else even comes close.You can also order it with Balanced inputs/outputs if you so desire. | |
| Nordost users....time to upgrade! I guess the place where the rollout occurred says a lot.But in my opinion, gold plated cable is really nothing more than a marketing gimmick. I have a few friends who went with Odin and Odin 2, opened their wallet wide and now regret it. Not that ... | |
| Sonus Faber vs Wilson @keithr Keith, your fiance may have a point if they are going to be center of your main living room. OTOH, the Sasha DAW's or the smaller Sabrina X's can be perhaps 'blended' into the space with a choice of color. I guess I am lucky, I don't hav... | |
| Sonus Faber vs Wilson One quick additional point...why are so many thinking the Wilsons are ugly? I think they look great, plus you can pick a number of different colors to match your decor. The SF's, which all have a very nice look ( i own a pair) are all of the 'trad... | |
| Do small preamp tubes 12ax7 need to be matched? Lewm brings up a very good point when he states that tubes age at different rates. I have always wondered how tube matching makes a lot of sense when a) the tubes will age at different rates b) what are the parameters that one can say a tube is ma... | |
| Sonus Faber vs Wilson If you like the looks and sound of your SF’s there is little wrong in that. The Wilson Sasha DAW’s are an excellent speaker that can probably bring you more dynamics and bass punch at the expense of some room flexibility. If your room isn’t up to ... | |
| Graceline cable from Black Cat cables @chipdelacalzada To answer your question, yes the Graceline is really in a significantly different performance level to the Coppertone cables, as good as they are. The overall performance level of the Graceline cables puts it in the same class as... | |
| The Doug Macleod appreciation thread @jbhiller Yes, Doug is a monster player... There are a few out there, not getting much attention these days. Funny how some monster players still keep flying under the radar. I know a few myself. BTW, I am listening to Ed Sheeran right now...he's... | |
| The Doug Macleod appreciation thread @jbhiller Not alone! But unfortunately also not in a crowd, by the look of it....too bad. I had hoped this thread might have been a bit more popular, but I guess it jives with Doug's popularity...which is IMO...a shame! | |
| LYRA DELOS IS AMAZING!!!! How acceptable is it to go on a web forum with a preconceived idea, not listen to any of the assistance or suggestions to mitigate the problem that was asked about? Then to denigrate not only the product in question but to also blatantly insult an... | |
| Black Cat Cable's/Coppertone wires are amazing good! Not to take anything away at all from the Coppertone cables, which are as described above, BUT the new line from Chris; the Graceline cable...are a major step up! I replaced my Silverstar cables with Graceline 1...the difference is quite obvious a... | |
