| What are you trying to tweak improve? As I see it, the tweaking is like using a equalizer. Any tweaking method will affect certain frequency(increase or decrease it). My experience is that using hardwood like Ebony or Purple Heart are very effective in altering the sound. When using i... | |

| Collective letter s to Stereophile I think they are creating some kind of monopoly or at less prevent free competition in the market. Clearly, if a product from a new company didn't get exposure/review or intentionally unfavourable review in an audio magazine. Nobody will buy it an... | |
| any comments on the threshold fet ten/hl pre-amp? I think using a combination of test tones to test any audio equipments are wrong and irrelevent. Human voices or any other musical instruments produce sound that are more complex than the simple test tones. I believe the ultimate testing of any au... | |
| any comments on the threshold fet ten/hl pre-amp? I never heard any SS pre-amp produces human-like vocal. They all sound mechanical, cool and inhuman and always remind me that I hearing Hi-Fi sound.But for a tube pre-amp, the human voice sounds like more human, with life and warmth.In this case, ... | |
| New to the tube world I really don't think you need to find or buy any back-up tubes. The RCA 5692 rated at 10,000 hours. I don't think you can outlast them. They are not output tubes and they will last a long long time. My best advise is to sit back, relax and listen ... | |

The $20k that you spent will be worth US$10000 in less than a year. In a few year, it will become something like the 486 computer. Who want a 486 when you c... | |
| What after the old CD player? CDP, SACD or DVD-a? It doesn't matter that who will win the "Format Wars". Whatever the winner is, it will be replace in a few years. As I see it, the SACD already reaching the middle of its product life cycle. It is a dieing format. Something newer or better(they cl... | |
| What's your tube pre doing? Looks like the "Triode" things is taking American one at a time........... Once you understand the truth, you cannot go back to regular tube or ss amps. Help spread the word and the SET amp revolution. Ask all your audiophile friends to audit your... | |
| Professional vs. Consumer speakers I really don't think the ordinary recording engineers really care about what kind of speakers they use. If they have the money, they go for the fancy TAD or the ultra expensive Westlake. If not, Yamaha speakers or anything that can make some noise... | |
