Opinions on Audio Research LS17 & LS26 I found that DrHIFI review to be more geared toward comparing/contrasting the LS26 and the LS15, not the LS25MKII. I don't mean to pick apart that fine review, but really, there just isn't much substance to go on, as far as compare/contrasts to th... | |
AR/Aragon Has anyone used this combo? hello, I ran an LS15 into an aragon 8002 for months. No pops, no problems. It was a good match. | |
Does a component stand impact the sound Mags5000- LOL!!!Hey I was wondering the same thing. I have a tall/slim stand that was under 150. The bottom shelf is MDF, but all the other tiers are smoked safety glass. It looks great but the paranoid audio geek in me wonders what the effect of ... | |
SB3 digital mod significant improvement? Converting the stock switcher to a linear will take care of the RF emissions.SMPS not encased in metal, and whose input/output lines not sent thru feedthru caps will generate RF at the fundamenatal and third harmonics, as it is a square wave signa... | |
Preamp to match with Aragon 8008 i had an aragon 8002 (same design, lower power) paired with both a McCormack TLC-1, and an Audio Research LS-15. The TLC-1 was a great match with my former dna 225, but NOT with the 8002. Dry, uninvolving sound. The ARC pre breathed new life: dyna... | |
Dynaudio D-260 Pdreher,LOL!Maybe if I should buy some brilliant pebbles and shake them really loudly to distract him too!! | |
Fat Tuesday: Katrina Recovery & Donations Progress I used to work with this guy, Matt. He up and quit his job as a longtime engineer to move down that way, in order to help the community. Check him out. There is alot of solid info about progress.http://mattfite.blogspot.com/-Dave | |
Dynaudio Evidence Master "I think many audiophiles have a near perfect jewel in their hand and throw it away before exercising all their options to maximize what's already there. "Amen. | |
Dynaudio D-260 doh! That sucks man. My son is 14 months old and is drawn to the audio system, always walks over the dyns and touches the grills, looking back smiling...I try to say no no no, but the little guy thinks its a game...what to do what to do?That is on... | |
rothwell attenuators..effect on sound? I am wondering if anyone has discovered mechanical faults with the evs inline jobs? The repeated mechanical disturbances from volume control, seem to translate right to the center pin of the RCA jack.Back to the OP: I am also interested in finding... | |
Replacement pwr supply for Aragon 24k I had this exact preamp years ago. That outboard power supply is very rugged. The fact that some guy modded it is likely the reason it broke. But like i said earlier, something upstream might be flaking out and massively increasing current draw, B... | |
Replacement pwr supply for Aragon 24k If you can find a local reputable tech shop try that. It's likely a regulator died.It could be that something in the 24k is drawing excessive current and that caused premature IPS failure.Have you tried alternative DC power ?Dave | |
Anyone listen to the Bel Canto e.One S300i amp??? Dezyrae,Is this correct power module for S300?http://www.icepower.bang-olufsen.com/graphics/powerhouse/Library/documentation/ICEpower200ASC_Datasheet_1-5.pdflook at that TINY integrated power transfromer!! it's so cute!! | |
The Best Midrange in the World Right Now I don't know about best in the world, but right now i'm loving the ARC 100.2's midrange portrayal(among other things). Very rich yet lucid and transparent, with zero trace of grain or harsness. Marry this with a nice preamp and good speakers and I... | |
Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? Audio Research 100.2: I agree with everything Loudandclear has stated (except the bass. No complaints here...). This amp drives my Dynaudio 1.8mk2's easily, as it did a friend's set of Contour S3.4's, which prompted his sale of a BatVK500. Simply ... |
