| What does "good" sound like? This may sound sexist but, its the same as asking someone what they consider to be a good looking woman. Many guys go nuts over Julia Roberts but, I wouldn't give her a second look. My taste is more cheeky with strong thick thighs and buns. Some p... | |
| Feedback on Sunfire Reference Preamp Tried the Sunfire for about a month. Soundstage was good, detal good but, sounded dry and hard. Sold it for about what I paid for it. Since then, bought a counterpoint SA3 and used as a phono stage through the B&K. Sounded so good that I ran m... | |

| ARC SP9 MK2 tubes Thanks for the responses so far. Another problem that I found is that the Phono section of this pre is louder at the same gain level as my CD player. All other combos the opposite is true. What experience has anyone else owning the SP9 MK2 had? | |
| ARC SP9 MK2 tubes Swampwalker,Thanks for the feedback. Is it also possible that my B&K reference 4420 is holding back the performance of the ARC? I am considering looking at a used McCormack DNA .5 or 1?Eagleman | |

| Tubes for Counterpoint 3 According to the seller the tubes that came in the unit are Electroharmonics 6922. Anyone heard of this tube? How does it compare to the better Amperex or Seimens in the 6DJ8 family? I checked Joe's tube lore on Audio Asylum and it does not mentio... | |
| Looking for opinions of the B&K ST 125.2 I too cannot see why B&K products are not discussed more. I am running Vandersteen 2CE sigs through a B&K PT3 Mk2 and a reference 4420 (225/ channel). Sound is warm, nuetral and I can listen for many hours without fatigue. I had purchased ... | |
| When your preamp doesn't match your amp I had a Sunfire Reference Preamp in my system for about a month. I had it matched with A B&k Ref 4420. Voices were hard sounding, highs seemed to roll off, transients seemed soft. I was also told that perhaps the specs were not a good match fo... | |
| What will drive the Vandersteen 1 C? I am running a B&K Reference 4420 at 225 per channel on my 2CE Sigs. I had a B&K ST140 which also sounded good at 105 watts per channel. The ST140 used for the 1C at around $2-300 might be a good fit. It is warm, detailed and not bright... | |
| ADCOM 555 II and DQ 10's I am running a B&K 4420 with 225 watts/ channel through Vandersteen 2CE sigs. Nice warm amp which sounds great loud with Eagles, Aerosmith, Fleetwood Mac, Pink Floy, etc. I saw one today on A-gon for $550. That is what I paid for mine on A-gon. | |
