| Where does music come from that streams? Are you responding to mine or some other response? | |
| Where does music come from that streams? I am sorry I came to this topic late. Minorl, I hope you picked up the Boss Tenors disc, it is one of the better recordings in my collection. Now about streaming, is this now the highest hi-fi method to hear music? A friend invited me over to his... | |
| Are Quicksilver power tube amps in the same league as VAC, VTL, BAT, ARC, ...? I have a pair of V-4 Monoblocs at 120 watts per channel. They use KT-88's 4 per side. Sound great imaging and the instruments are awesome. | |
| Anyone remember the Sonogy Concept 60 power amp? Russ was a good friend of mine. I am still running a Black Knight and a Concept 60 in my system. They are doing bass duty in my system and are phenomenal. The only reason the Concept 60 is doing bass duty is that I have a pair of Quicksilver V4's... | |
| The longest you have owned any gear? That would be my Pioneer Elite PD-65 CDP. I bought it around 1992-93. With all the reasonably priced DAC's available today, it now does duty as a transport. The thing is a tank. | |
| Anyone know about sforzando design JL One I too have a set of these loudspeakers. They are everything rcprince said and more. I can confidently say they will be my last speaker system. I know this might be a vague term in audio, but they sound like music to me. I am also in the NJAS and t... | |
| New Preamp Suggestions Well I got out today and listened to a few of the usual suspects that were recommended as choices. But it looks like fate has stepped in to take a hand. I like the AI too much, don't want to mess with a line stage PP situation and the wife needs a... | |
| New Preamp Suggestions BTW, this is really not relevant to a preamp thread, but my brain just shook it to the front and I simply have to share it. My 2009 Chevy Silverado has a 5.7 engine that has been known to have fuel management control problems in certain cylinders.... | |
| New Preamp Suggestions Stereo5,From your post it appears that Art went back to the stepped volume controls of the M3, instead of the smooth ones on the M3A, true?John | |
| New Preamp Suggestions Thank you very much everyone. Since I have the Quickies, I am leaning away from the Cary, although of course I will have to listen. The VAC is a nice suggestion. I am in NJ but I will read about AVM too. Looks like the M3A upgrade to the M3B might... | |
| To Dac or not to Dac Well I settled on the Micromega MyDac because it had 3 different inputs and I got it new for $369. Got it today and will try it out tomorrow. It will also help me with my old laptop that I want to try as a music server. Always good to have new toy... | |
| To Dac or not to Dac Thank you,My choices were not etched in stone, but were price driven models. Thanks for your input on the Cam and the Peach. | |
| tube preamp in SS receiver loop Vesuvio,You are on the right track and I agree with Fmalitz. I have direct experience with what you want to do. When I wanted to do separates years ago I could not afford a tube pre and power amp. Plus I have a fairly large room and I like orchest... | |
| Rega Brio R vs Wyred or Bel Canto Drop,I know this is a bit late but I have the MH a15.2 and it doesn't have any pre outs. There is something called a line out but it is really a tape out because it is a fixed output where you can't control the volume. The way it is set up now if ... | |
| Caps on a Powered Sub Orpheus10,Thank you very much! |
