| Preamp Deal of the Century Hello Gang. ASA, any Canada geese hanging out with the gulls there? Your Clear Side anology and its relationship with up stream and down stream components is bang on here. Yes...I do hear this attribute and you are correct in your analysis. I have... | |
| Magn. susp. flywheel for 20Kg magn. susp. platter Thankyou Sir, for making this site available to audiogon. Extremely imformative to say the least. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Devils Advocate? Interesting analogy and some food for thought here.How does one qualify as a "Devils Advocate"?? Perhaps... we can post an internet polling station here, and all of us "insecure members" can vote for you or whomever else aspires t... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Congratulations Bob. Amazing huh.The best of it all is: Like a fine wine or all fine tube equipment for that matter, it can only get better with age, as the transformers,caps, resistors,wire etc, need a steady dose of frequency modulation [read mu... | |
| OHm micro walsh series... Holzhauer.If memory serves: I think you are correct on the Morrison 1 evolving from the Hegemans.I have not seen, nor heard them in a number of years. I do remember their holographic sound and how incredibly musical they were even at very low list... | |
| What Amp for ProAc Response 3's? Hey Mickey.As a former owner! You have a speaker that is truly a cult classic and justifiably so. And brother, they just love tubes. A marriage that will last forever! All the best in your search. | |

| what cartriges for my Fidelity Research FR64FX ? Steelhead. Email me as I have an original FR headshell. Cheers.When employing any good mc cartridge, the FR 64fx is competetive with any tonearm out there. Denon's,koetsu's,shelters, you name it and it will perform with the best of them. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Very good analogy from Jazzdude,No one should use any directly heated rectifiers with the supratek preamps. Although the guy's assessment is bang on about the sound of a ux-280. | |
| Speakers that accurately reproduce a drumset Hey Duke. Good call,mesmerizing really. Unbelievable impact and scale on a full drum kit! not to mention the big Klipch corner horn,and the incredible Tannoy Westminster. | |
| Speakers that accurately reproduce a drumset An extremely tall order to ask of any rig! To recreate a full drum kit at anywhere near live concert levels, you had better have a very good room as well.In my experience...Planars are commendable but really don't have a chance, further more: as S... | |
| pro-ac,and atma-sphere combo? Hello. I used to run a pair of Response 3's with Atma-shere 2.2's and they made nothing short of magic together! Still miss the proac "experience" to this very day. | |
| Is solid state on the brink of extinction? Yeah... antiquated amps???Some food for thought! Somehow, I rather doubt Khrys would trade his Jadis's for "any" digital amps at this juncture. To be candid: I have never heard the Acoustic Reality. I have listened to a few high-end digital amps[n... | |
| Is solid state on the brink of extinction? Won't get into the politics in this thread.However...I too believe the Scintilla is "without any doubt", the undisputed king of the apogee speaker line-up.Because of their load on a given amplifier,I sincerely doubt many people have ever really he... |
