| Best Stand for Harbeth 7ES-3 Compact I used custom made Target three posts with mine (19") but I'm sure the Skyland stands or Sound Anchors are equally good. Let the height be determined by your listening chair and seating position. One suggestion is to make sure the top of the stand... | |
| ARC LS-27 or ARC ref-3 Woooaaah. Bifwynne--why such urgency in your post? This isn't a race. I'm sure both pieces are nice and the differences between them are relatively small. ARC sells lots of units and updates their product line with (some say too frequent) regulari... | |
| Can anyone recommend a better rectifier tube? I'm trying to persuade Sophia Electric to make a 5AR4/GZ34 rectifier tube that would replace the Mullard NOS in my Modwright LS100. I am already using Sophia's 6SN7's and they are wonderful. So, anyone else interested please send them an email and... | |
| Christmas Music and Audiophiles? Not a big fan but my wife gets more leeway in choosing music around the holidays and she likes it so....Vince Guraldi and Diana Krall are passable but my favorite is Mindy Smith. Nicely done and worth checking out. | |
| impact of room treatment I'm also giving this some thought but really want to find something that looks as good as it works. My setup is in my living room so I need my room treatments to look like ART. Suggestions? | |
| What Are The Best 12AT7's and 12AX7's? Has anyone tried the Sophia Electric 12AX7's? I bought a pair of their 6SN7's for my Modwright LS100 and they are beautifully made and excellent sounding tubes, far surpassing the stock tubes that came with the unit. I'm considering trying their 1... | |
| Spiral Groove Centroid tonearm That was fun. Thanks! | |
| Comparison of Devore silverbacks vs harbeth 40.1 I wonder if there isn't something going on elsewhere in your signal chain or/and room interface. While I've never directly compared the M40.1 with the Silverbacks I did audition both when I was in the market for speakers. I heard the Silverbacks a... | |
| What Are The Best 12AT7's and 12AX7's? Thanks everyone so far. I'm currently running the tubes that came with the unit. Svetlana 12AX7's and Electro Harmonics 12AT7's. How do these tubes compare with some of those favorites mentioned? What kind of sonic impact can I expect from rolling... | |
| How Long Ago Since You Cried Listening To Music? Just this morning while listening to the God Bless America.John Boehner | |
| Audio Fidelity Gold CDs Two worth getting are Bad Company (if you can find one) and James Taylor One Man Dog. Both sound excellent. | |
| Your favorite 5687 tube in the Modwright 9.0 SE? What is a good, reliable source for the Mullard 5AR4's? | |
| Quality Record Pressings "Tea for the Tillerman" Anyone know why QRP isn't half speed mastering these LPs? | |
| Speakers with wide listening window One suggestion would be to find a used pair of Daedalus DA-1's. They are specifically designed to provide excellent off-axis response. I had pair until I upgraded to the DA-1.1's and loved them. Nice speaker, very coherent, musical and warm with g... | |
| Dynavector 20X H vs DV 20X M 1mv for VPI I went from the 20XH to the 20XM on my Scout and found the differences minimal. Perhaps slightly greater detail and speed but this may have been more what I expected to hear rather than what I actually heard. If you like what you have I'd stick wi... |
