| China built tube amps @SNS If you live in USA your assertion would probably carry. I live in EU, my washing machines, TVs, amps, speakers, even small kitchen appliances are all made in EU or Japan. Even my shoes and clothing are all made in US or Europe. I know it was... | |
| China built tube amps I am just an open minded Commie sympathizer. I want to support every murderous xenophobic dictatorial regime I can find. Does Russia make amps? That would be my next purchase after I support communist Chinese regime with my hard earned money. | |
| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music Here how I got a great bass from mediocre Triangle Signatures. 1. Buy Luxman 120A vintage amp and connect it to the bass speaker posts 2. Connect Maven receiver to the mid-hi speaker posts 3. Use receiver Pre out to connect to Luxman. Drive s... | |
| What is the best HEAVY METAL speaker? Good value right now on used market is B&W 804D2 would do everything right especially with a separate receiver on bass with tone control. Compared them to ATC SCM40 and I am sorry t say it but B&W sounded better, natural, great stage and s... | |
| Top vintage receivers vs. modern high-end equipment I have discovered that by an large only vintage receivers have dedicated Preamp Out. Integrateds do not. I use receivers as preamp only or on occasion as second amp driving just the bass on bi-wired speakers. I can get modern pre amp but they are... | |
| If bi-amping is so great, why do some high end speakers not support it? Bi-amping with tone controls using vintage amps, that is where it is at. For around 800USD one can have two Ymaha Class A amps or Luxman Class A running their system. You can adjust treble, mids and bass to get the best out of recording. My speake... | |
| If bi-amping is so great, why do some high end speakers not support it? Another bit of a news from bi-amping experiments. Have you ever tried to run tweeter only and listen to the quality of your treble/tweeter alone? Holly cats, I tried that on a several recordings considered to be really well mastered and I came to ... | |
| If bi-amping is so great, why do some high end speakers not support it? Level matching amps from the same manufacturer.... No that is completely contrary to what I am trying to achieve. I want to have control of the treble and bass separate from each other. I don’t always agree with mastering engineer decisions on how... | |
| Integrated Amplifier with the Good Bass and Extended Highs Used Ayre for highs and Krell KAV 400 class A for bass. Or two Marantz 300DC through 3650 pre-amp bi-wired. Two Luxman class A or just one. There are so many options. | |
| If bi-amping is so great, why do some high end speakers not support it? I had my first bi-amping epiphany today. I never believed it is useful to do with just two dumb power amps. I was bored today and connected two integrated amps with tone controls to my speakers. I let Ayre run my treble and then vintage Marantz to... | |

| phono pre amp giant killer? Sorry to resurrect this , but I believe this is very important topic and thread should survive as more sleepers are being discovered by vintage audio adventurers.Here is a list of worthy vintage phono preamps:Hitachi IA1000 Sansui AUG90X Sansui 30... | |
| Help me decide Revel or Focal Since you are in NE you should try Triangle (also French design),there is a dealer in Boston for them. If you venture out to Manhattan you should listen to Devore Fidelity-clean ,natural sounding , perfect for acoustic music of all sorts.I don't r... | |
| Looking for an alternative to Music Hall a70.2 IMHO, if you want to spend money on upgrade it should not be an amplifier. MH has plenty of punch and it is neutral, so I would look into speakers. Everything else in your system is maximized to the point of significantly diminished returns. | |
| Review: Denon DL 103R Cartridge I confirm that I like the sound of DL103R better than more expensive DL304. 103R has zing , realism , attack and treble that DL304 lacks. If you like the sound characteristics of 103R and thinking of upgrading do NOT go DL304 route. |
