What is the quietest preamp you've used? First Sound MK11, had a AUDIO RESEARCH LS25 this one is much quieter | |
Classe integrated and Tyler Linbrooks I use a McIntosh with my Linbrooks and have used Acurus and Adcom with no problems( the McIntosh and the Linbrooks are a very nice combo). | |
New Amplifier: Bryston 4B ST or Pass Aleph 5 The reason I sugested a tube pre is to smooth out the sound of the Bryston, not that it is necessary but the synergy of the two will leave you smiling. Look for a Audio research LS 15 or 16 or if you can afford it a LS25 all work well with the Bry... | |
Ready to try vinyl I to recently returned to vinyl and after lots of questons bought a VPI SCOUT with a Dynavector 20 high output cart.ALL THE ABOVE ADVICE ON CLEAN VINYL is very important and makes a big difference in overall sound quality. So keep a portion of you... | |
New Amplifier: Bryston 4B ST or Pass Aleph 5 As a former owner of a Bryston 4BST and having heard it many times with Mag's I can recommend one to you. My additional advice would be to look for a tube pre, perhaps Audio Research very nice combo with mag's | |
Graham Slee Era Gold V or ARC PH3 SE Take a look at the new ARC PH5 no problem with different loads just push a button on the remote, plus a superior phono pre all around. | |
Most transparent, detailed Audio Research Preamp I have had a LS7 which I found to be a little dull sounding, moved that out for a McIntosh C37 nice improvement in detail and soundstage. In my main system I just traded out a LS25MK1 for a First sound deluxe MK11 what a change!!! everthing opened... | |
AUDIO RESEARCH PH5 I have to agree with the above, I bought the ph5 and just love it vinyl has never sounded better. | |
NAD C 350 vs Mc Intosh MA 6100 one thing is for sure, if you buy the McIntosh 6100 and later elect to upgrade, you will get a better return on your investment than with the NAD. Resale on Mcintosh is much better. | |
Ohm Walsh 4 Month Home Trial Money-Back Guarantee? I have owned Ohms starting with a pair of Ohms F's to the Ohms Walsh 4's now with the Ohm's 300mk11, what can I say I am Hooked on the sound. The 300's will work very well with my large room 20x20x18 feet high. The 300's are power hungry and run a... | |
Multichannel Preamp I find my Aragon Stageone to be a fine piece of equipment both for digital movies and analoge music(2 channel and multi) prior pre/pro B&K ref 30 nice but not in the same league. | |
Mac 402 & Audio Research LS25MKl ? I just sold my A.R.LS25 great preamp, may I suggest tube rolling. Your mac is fine. Other suggestions are good balanced cables. | |
What about this stylus guage? I bought one from Mambo, it is a jewelry scale, reguires a small stand to bring it up to platter height which he has a self build description he will e-mail you. works well!!He is selling different scales with different weight adjustments. | |
First Sound Presence mk11 vs Audio Research L.S.25 No I do not have a audiable hiss, but exposure to different equipment will reveal small differences in noise, etc that we grow use to. The A.R.C. L.S.25 I have had for a while, is a very nice line stage. Now for something different. The audiogon m... |
