Thiel CS3.7 and CS2.4 comparisons? You do realize that I was quoting Stevecham, right? | |
Thiel CS3.7 and CS2.4 comparisons? >With daily playing, it took me almost three years to break in my 6s and almost two to, finally, break in the 2.4s. !!! | |
Seeking comments from ProLogue 3-5-6-7 owners... I have a ProLogue 5 that I use occasionally when I want to enjoy tubes for a change of pace. It's a wonderful product in terms of build quality and ease of use. The auto-bias is a great feature. I have run mine with KT88s and EL34s. I recently dro... | |
Mystere CA 21 Preamp No remote. Still, I want to try one. | |
Amp for Thiel 3.7s A friend of mine drives his 3.7s with JC-1s and the sound is exceptionally good. | |
Who has heard the Prima Luna Dialogue 7s? I have a Prologue 5 that I'm loving with EL34s. Other than optional triode operation, how much difference is there between the Prologue and Dialogue products, do you know?Incredibly easy tube amps to live with. | |

Best new Liquid conductor technologies-Audio Magic In my audio vocabulary, smooth and whitish are not contradictory. And whitish is generally a deal killer. | |
Replace wall wart to Simaudio LP3 >would be willing to spend up to $750That's more than the LP3 costs! For the combined cost, you could get another used LP5.3 easily. | |
Ayre QB9 with a transport I don't think you can unless there is a way to convert S/PDIF to USB. The QB-9 only accepts USB as input. | |
Why the obsession with the lowest octave Great post, Mitch4t.I've heard it said that a lot of the information that communicates the size a recording venue comes from the very deepest bass. | |
phono preamp break-in machine >CD signal is too strong to go directly into phono ampNot with the Granite Audio disc -- that's the whole idea. |
