| Warm and accurate bookshelves that can handle volume I go along with henry53. If a system is always warm it's colored . Input varies and the system should mirror that unless you really want it to be warm all the time. It's a valid choice but it's not accurate. You can't have both. You can't even alw... | |
| Speakers with deep/powerful bass I was with my friend George Bischoff who was the main designer of Scaena speakers at Harry Pearson's years ago. The Scaena were line sources with planar tweeters and dynamic mids. The woofers were powered modular 18" woofers with equalization(actu... | |
| Hey, I'm looking for the highest quality recordings from the following Artists: Eva Cassidy is easy, the 2 CD Nightbird(or the 1 CD version) recorded live at Blues Alley. Easily the most natural(live recording) and dynamic(lack of compression) of all her recordings. And because of that it captures her unique, exciting approac... | |
| Interesting "Self" review...Schiit Measurements do matter. But they aren't only the standard ones. SET amps ahve very high 2nd harmonic distortion but that's very musical. And it can't be fixed because it's due to inherent non-linearity in the single ended topology which shows up a... | |
| Subwoofer boom is too much for me... Stuffing the port of a sub will make it less of a sub. The lowest notes of a ported box come from the port, not the driver. And if the box was not designed to be used stuffed as well as a higher bass cut off you could get boomy bass even from a 's... | |
| Speaker cable recommendations Tube amps always have a high output impedance(low damping factor). This interacts with the varying impedance with frequency of all loudspeakers to produce frequency response variations which would not be there with high damping factors of most sol... | |
| When were the best tube amps made? Since I've gotten mentioned in these discussions I'll cite a few good tube examples. CAT has a superb reputation and I've heard this from other tube designers I know and respect. David Berning is a genius. His ZTOL circuit is one of the few real... | |
| New to vinyl question VTA matters. And changing VTF changes VTA. So when playing with VTF you must follow with VTA adjustment every time. | |
| Rounded back enclosure gives clearer sound - B&W 805 Does the rounded back help? Yes. Is it definitive and/or is it necessary? no. | |
| High powered single end 300b recommendations I've seen as high as 28 watts in a push/pull 300B amp but the sound of a SET amp is at least as much that it's single ended than the tube choice. SET amps are high in second harmonics due a lot to their topology which compresses the negative half ... | |
| Should I buy an SME 30/12A for 15K? If you expect to continue into records and significantly add to your collection over time, the SME table has always considered to be one of the best and it's a great beginning to updating your phono system. It's good enough that if you want as tim... | |
| HELP!!!! Newbie looking for a decent 2 channel power amp in the $1,000 range I guess by now a Sunfire 300 watt amp should be in your price range. It will drive just about anu load down to 2 ohms. And just for fun it has 2 different sets of speaker outlets, one a direct connect, high damping one like all solid state amps an... | |
| VTV D300 Digital amp Oh gee, I think this is the zillionth time I've written this. The D in class D does not stand for digital. It's D only because it came after 3 previous classes, A, B and C. And it's unfortunate it's an encoding format and class D because every one... | |

| Which integrated for Wilson Sabrina's No recommendation on amps but if you like very tight bass go for solid state. If you want fuller sound then tubes my be a better choice. |
