| Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen Haven't seen this thread for a while but, I have since gone to EH6CA7s in the AMP and changed out the speaker cables from the Tara Labs that Steve has to some Yang Wings that a local dealer from my audio club sells. Totally different sound. Sound ... | |
| Review: Tube Audio Design TAD-60 Tube amp Depends what tubes you use. I use the EH 6CA7 and the attack is very fast. This amp sounds better with every improvement that I have made. I recently bought some very thick speaker cable which opened up the amp even more. It has made the biggest d... | |
| Entry level amp? TAD-60 for around 1K. Read the reviews.. 60 WPC. Drives my Vandy 2ce sigs very well... | |
| Opinions of TAD-60 Amp Check out this amp in the reviews section. Many quite recently. I have this amp paired with the TAD150 signature pre. It replaced a McCormack DNA-1. No comparison. My speakers are Vandersteen 2ce signatures. Eagleman | |
| Shipping Large Amp across Canadian Border? Fedex.. | |
| Time for new tubes.. which ones? I replaced the stock tubes with Groove tubes 12AX7s from Upscale Audio. Reasonable price and nice improvement over the stock tubes. | |
| Need an amp, either SS or tube, around $1000 I have Vandy 2CE sigs mated with Tube Audio Design 150 pre and the TAD-60 power amp. I have changed the power output tubes to EH 6CA7 which improves the imaging and soundstage. I have had the McCormack in my system but, the TAD-60 with its 60 watt... | |
| Preamp match for Mccormack DNA-125 I second the TAD-150 Signature but, they are no longer in production and if you can find one they are getting close to or more than a grand.I had mine with a DNA-1. I have since gone all tube but, the DNA-1-Tad combo was a winner.Eagleman | |
| Progressive Rock What defines progressive aprt from classic. I listen to 99% rock from eagles, Aerosmith, Seeger, Fleetwood Mac, Who, and such more modern groups like, Everclear, Train, Cold Play (their CDs area terrible Mix), Nicleback (don't have any CDs as they... | |

| Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen Dave,I have a pair of 2CE sugnatures that were sold to me by Audio Concepts in Houston. I currently have Tara labs usc Prime wires that were sold to me with the speakers. Can I do better at a reasonable price point? I am using a Tubeaudio design A... | |
| Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen Drewyou,In response to your question about high- FQ roll off. I am still in the process of tweaking the cable mixture to find the best math. I got a pair of DIY from someone at the Houston Audio Club. I connected it to my TT and from the pre to th... | |
| Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen I agree with pubu157 and Krisjan. I can listen to a good set of headphones on a good amp and get more detail that will make any speaker sound veiled. Not a real good comparison. | |
| Trying to extract more from my Vandersteen I had almost exactly your system. the only difference was that I had the DNA-1 not deluxe. I have since gone to the TAD-60 AMp.At first I noticed the greater sense of air/ spaciousness compared to the Mccormack. Highs were a bit laid back. I messe... | |
| Tube amp for rock? Newb Questions OOPS forgot... I heard a DK Design Integrated MK2, liked the punch, and thought that this would be a good nmatch for rock music...Eagleman |
