| Recommend me a tube integrated amplifier I'll second the suggestion of Black Ice Audio. They're a venerable company (used to be Jolida), they're based in the US and they have very good support. Their integrated amps have subwoofer outputs. I haven't heard their Fusion line but a frien... | |
| I need some high quality Printed Circuit Boards Made (DYNACO ST-70) I’d be more than happy to help, Will. If it’s the original Dynaco circuit, with the original eyelet inputs, I can email him a Dynaco manual and a picture of the original board layout and he can pretty much take it from there. The only data I’d nee... | |
| I need some high quality Printed Circuit Boards Made (DYNACO ST-70) He says above that he tried theirs and didn't like it. | |
| I need some high quality Printed Circuit Boards Made (DYNACO ST-70) No problem. I reached out to the guy, and he'd be happy to help. It's just a side thing for him, I don't know what he does for a living. ;-) He put an entire Williamson circuit on a heavy-duty PCB for me, they're terrific boards, better than I ... | |
| I need some high quality Printed Circuit Boards Made (DYNACO ST-70) "How much does it cost to have a Gerber File made?" It can cost a lot if you go to a professional firm. Plus non-audio people don’t always understand what you need. Little things like how big the filament eyelets need to be. stuff like that. An... | |
| I need some high quality Printed Circuit Boards Made (DYNACO ST-70) Come to think of it, I know a couple of other fellows, veteran DIYers, who I'm sure are quite aware of your work, who also might be willing to help out. Feel free to send me a PM. | |
| I need some high quality Printed Circuit Boards Made (DYNACO ST-70) Will, there's a fellow on another audio forum who designed a PCB for me from a schematic. He does it for fun and a little bit of money. It was not expensive, he sent me the Gerbers and I now order the boards from China and they arrive in about a... | |
| DCS Sending Legal Notice To Reviewer (Golden Sound) Over an Old Review of Their Bartok DAC @rib61 The bar for defamation is lower in other countries, so it depends on where the suit is filed. | |
| Chasing distortion ^^^This. Definitely get it serviced, you're wasting your money right now trying to replace tubes. | |
| Lumen streamer operation question Thanks for clarifying that, sleeeepguy. | |
| Lumen streamer operation question I haven’t used Lumin all that much, mostly to test BubbleUPnP and Minimserver. If you tap on the song title there will be little icons that mean "Play now," "Play next" and "Play last". They’re lines with a play arrow on top or in between. You can... | |
| Sviatoslav Richter. Greatest pianist of the last century? +1 on Gieseking, though it's a crime that Walter Legge recorded him on such blowsy, antiquated equipment. There are very few recordings that convey the glory of his tone. Also, I enjoy Trifonov a lot. But I confess that I don't "get" Richter. ... | |
| Advice on Sterling LS3/6 I’m glad you enjoy it. I kept my demo long enough for a audiophile friend with far better ears to hear it, and he could hear the effects clearly, even in my sub-optimal room. I’d forgotten about Quicksilver, that’s a nice little "KISS" amp and th... | |
| Advice on Sterling LS3/6 BTW, how do you like the Bacch system? I demoed it, and Edgar couldn't have been nicer or more helpful, but apparently balanced ears are a requirement and I have significant high-frequency loss in my left ear, a congenital thing. Because of this... | |
| Advice on Sterling LS3/6 You're welcome. A well-restored Fisher 500c is, IMO, a musical instrument in its own right, with a midrange of exceptional beauty. The 400 is nice too, though not as refined (IMO). The Scotts are a bit on the "sweeter" side, if that's what you ... |
