| Looking for speaker choice advice..... Some comments are always forth coming about the Maggies "lack of bass". I owned a pair of 1.6's, so my comments are limited to this particular model. The 1.6's require OODLES OF POWER to open up the bass!!! I was pushing 500 wpc, (yes, 1 kilowatt ... | |
| Hollman Audio communication Dedicatedaudio, you probably put a space between hollmanaudio (hollman audio) when you attempted to reach his website. Internet search procol won't recognize his site because of this extra space separating the two words! If he listed his website a... | |
| Hollman Audio communication Here's the link, for Hollman: (http://www.hollmanaudio.com). I really like the sound...and the man! | |
| alternatives to spikes on wood floors? Right on Richards! I, too, love the Aurios! I think that they tighten the bass (although upon first hearing, some people perceive less bass. This is actually the removal of distortion artifacts, which can produce a boomy bass). Imaging in the soun... | |
| Is Western Union Safe? Bank wire transfer is the quickest and best way to go. A few problems with Western Union. I had a buyer in the U.K. who wanted to make payment this way. Forget about a certified check drawn on a bank from the U.K. IT TAKES ONE MONTH TO CLEAR!!! Th... | |
| what power conditioner? Custom Power Cords Power Blocks and power cords. Two time winnner of T.A.S. Golden Ear awards, and rightly so! David Blair has introduced some new and upgraded products this year. Truly a "mad genious" of the power cord/line conditioner field! | |

| Correlation between tube bias and hiss? Albertk, just went through a tube problem in my Atma-sphere MK-60 2.2, and sounds very similar to the problems that you describe! However, with out more info (as Maxgain wisely suggests) a diagnosis of your problem is a shot in the dark, at best! | |
| I Need to Mount Amps ON WALL+++ How about commercial product display shelving? Maybe Granger or any local company that supplies cases or shelving for commercial retail stores or restaurants. Or, you could just send your children to boarding school for the next few years! Either ... | |
| Telefunken tube models? Yes, they did. Call Andy at Vintage Tube Services...616-454-3467. | |
| Mobile Fidelity Sound labs Question I can tell you that the Pink Floyd multi-disc set "Shine On" from 1992 blows away both the Mofi and newer Jap. versions that I've heard. | |
| Tubed pre-amp w/ balanced outputs? Atma-sphere MP-1 and MP-3 with both balanced ins and outs (as well as RCA's). And both have great phono sections INCLUDED! | |
| Another look at directionality in cables And the winner is...XLR balanced interconnects. Don't ever have to worry about the directionality of these puppies! | |
| Help me tame the brightness of my Triangles I agree with Dekay. I got a pair of Mullard 4003's from a VERY BIG name expert tube "Guru". Turned out to be CRAP! (lots of noise!) Your 4003's are most likely '80's garbage that should not be confused with the earlier and premium vintage Mullards... |
