| Which 300b amplifier for Devore O/96 @firstnot I got in touch with tubeaudio.com, never heard back.But I did hear back from the West Coast Shindo dealer who told me that although a lot of people do use Cortese with O/96, a little more power might be preferable.I played my Coincident ... | |
| Which 300b amplifier for Devore O/96 @pah I can't try it. I would have to buy it to try it. Will audition (sadly not on a O/96) when I am in NYC next month.@jsautter Yes, I agree its apples to oranges comparison. Sorry, I was not clear, but what I meant was that the dynamic range see... | |
| Which 300b amplifier for Devore O/96 Thanks everyone for your thoughtful inputs.After reading @almarg @atmasphere and @jsautter I put my 300b Coincidents back on and played some music with a with great dynamic range. This song goes from 66dB to 98dB in 10 minutes and back down.I thou... | |
| Which 300b amplifier for Devore O/96 Yeah its 5 not 4 amplifiers.@atmasphere @jsautter you guys have given me fodder for thought.I feel like my Coincidents were powerful enough. But now you are making me doubt that. Will put those amps back in, listen more and get back.So I am guessi... | |

| I'm thinking about purchasing a Luxman D-08 SACD/CD Player @greginnh Used to live in San Francisco until a year ago, now in India for a bit.BTW have you ever had a chance to compare Luxman DA-06u to the Bricasti M1SE, I am trying to decide between one of these two.It would be perfect if Luxman came up wit... | |
| I'm thinking about purchasing a Luxman D-08 SACD/CD Player @greginnh That is strange. My distributor claims to have gotten a formal email from Luxman to that effect. I heard someone else in one of forums say something similar (heard from a dealer).There isn't a reason why he should mislead since I asked h... | |
| I'm thinking about purchasing a Luxman D-08 SACD/CD Player I recently heard from my Luxman distributor that he received an email from Luxman saying that they are discontinuing all SACD players.Can anyone confirm this? | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. I have to say, my findings match with the review. I am trying to quote my prev impressions of the 3400 (the post I cannot find, since this thread is 14 pages long) and bring my thoughts about the 3400 to a closure.The 3400 paired to my 300b SET tu... | |
| I'm thinking about purchasing a Luxman D-08 SACD/CD Player Check out whitecamaross thread in amps/preamps where he sells/replaces a top of the line Esoteric K1 Grandioso with the Luxman D-08u and his comments on why he did what he did (you will have scroll to find the post, there are 1000s of posts in the... | |
| 300b tubes burn in time? I bought the amps used, so the old ones sounded great all throughout (they must have had a few hundred hours on them at least I figure).Same brand and model of tubes. Black treasures.The other tubes should be fine (I think), since the old tubes ga... | |
| Is it still possible to upgrade an AMR DP-777 to SE? As of 6 months ago, yes, it was possible. I had contacted AMR UK they said they can send the upgrade kit for 1000 odd euros.Not sure if their USA dealer would do it though. | |
| Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G Thanks Audiofun.It is really valuable input especially from a AMR DP-777 owner who understands where I am coming from.Your post more than anything is now making me consider the Technics (even though I have to buy it out of the country, no Technics... | |
| Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G @fsmithjack I know that you are a big Bricasti M1 fan.How does your P8/Apheta compare to your Bricasti?My Rega RP6 was almost bested by my DAC (AMR DP-777). So decided to move on from Rega and wanna try NA this time. | |
| Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G I feel like someone like @jdodmead who's owned the table I am looking at, his opinion matters for sure, especially cause I am looking to buy a table that I will not change for the years to come.Glad to hear Koetsu works.@inna got it, will not both... |
