| Two Turntables and Hum Problems - Help Please I just dusted off an old Kyocera TT with a Blue Point cartridge and bought a Bellari 130 (tubed for $250) and couldn"t be happier. I'll be upgrading soon but for now the Bellari sounds way better than $250. | |
| What's more important: phono stage or amp I'm new to the audiophile world so I'm always looking for advice here in Audiogon. It still blows my mind when someone will post a response to a thread with "dumb question" because the question wasn't worded to their liking. Then later in the thre... | |
| Ayon Triton---suggestion on speakers? The Ayon Triton pairs up nicely with my Verity Parsifal Ovations. More than enough power in both the Pentode mode and Triode mode. I have my new sytem in a temporary location so there aren't any tweaks or room acoustic improvements yet. Breaking i... | |

| Tube amp advice Raquel:Thanks for the link on the CAT amps...good info.As for the KT88 output tubes, am I able to 'upgrade' to better, less prone to fail tubes. If not, guess I'll be stocking up. | |
| Tube amp advice Raquel:Looks like there's still hope. It's worth a shot anyway. Someone else here (Ral) suggested giving the Salon 2's a listen with the Triton before going for my second speaker option. A point he brought up though is that the speakers might go t... | |
| Sacramento, California Muralman1; will do. My wife and I use to frequent that restaurant. It's been about a year and a half. They had great chili verde. Wondering why we quite going. I'll let you know. | |
| Sacramento, California Thanks for the input guys. I bought the Triton from an A-goner so considering the price, it'll be a keeper in some shape or form for now. And considering what many are saying, it'll be nice if it's a 'keep for life' kind of audio equipment.I'll le... | |
| Tube amp advice Will the Ayon Triton do the trick? I sure hope so. I have one. I was considering buying Revel Ultima Salon 2's, rated at 86.4db into 6 ohms but was told 100 watts won't do the trick. I'm understanding it's current and not watts (thanks Raquel) so ... | |
| Sacramento, California RalWhen I told Jesse at 'Music Lovers' in San Francisco, that I have the Triton, he said it wasn't powerful enough to drive the Salon 2's. He suggested bi-amping as an option and recommended a Musical Fidelity M6 PRX CRPS (260 Watts?) as a possibl... | |
| Sacramento, California Muralman1I absolutely love the Salon 2's. Heard them at 'Music Lovers' in San Fran. Jesse Luna was a pleasure to do business with. Thing is, the Salon 2's are rated at 86.4 db into 6 ohms and the Verity Ovations are rated at 89db into 8 ohms. Havi... | |
| Sacramento, California Back in my 'trippin' days I'd frequent the delta hangouts. Gotta change that dumb name.As for my plunge into the audiophile world, here's what I did. Instead of building a system around speakers which I think is what most do, I impulsively bought ... | |
| Sacramento, California Where is everyone? Hey Muralman1, anything happening in Sac? I'm here in Elk Grove venturing out into the audiophile world. Got a lot of work to do but starting out with an Ayon Triton (still in a box). | |
| Ayon Triton---suggestion on speakers? I also have an Ayon Triton (still in the box). I'm considering the Verity Parsifal Ovations (89db). On other threads here, some say the Ovations don't need much power. Others say more power is the way to go. I'm praying the Triton and Ovations are... | |
| More powerful amp for top or bottom? Meiwan...Can you please explain the types of problems that could arise from that great a difference of output power. Also the types of problems from using different amp manufacturers. I'll probably end up with a very similar situation so any advis... |
