| Next step: preamp or phono preamp Great thread, I’ve enjoyed reading it. FYI, getting your Khartago fully upgraded will be well worth it, but Klaus is so backlogged he recently told me to keep my Khartago monos as “they would just sit on a shelf” if I sent them in. Following your ... | |

| preamp inverts polarity I’ve read this whole thread and will never get that time back. Invert connections on both speakers then listen. If it sounds better then before, leave it. If your cables are built differently for negative and positive, try it anyway. If your pream... | |

| No Pro-Ject Reviews in Stereophile Roy Hall is a genuine character, who sparred with anyone willing to engage. All in good fun normally. He used to bring a suitcase full of single malt to shows, if he knew you, a wee shot would be offered. Neither here nor there, just felt like sha... | |
| Inexpensive Tube Amps Look at YouTube before buying nobsound. Guy takes apart his hybrid tube/SS amp to discover the tube section is fake! The transformer covers are empty! If Yaqin is still on your list, look up the Yaqin group on Facebook. They have knowledge, own ... | |
| Just ordered Odyssey Stratos Extreme its been about 8 years since you purchased the Stratos. Do you still own it? What is your review of its performance? Im considering making the same leap of faith with the tricked out monoblocks. |
