Review: CM Labs 914 Amplifier The 915 was a pro amplifier designed primairly for musicians and for recording studio use. These were special order only if memory serves me correct. Very ruggedly built. This one is about 150 WRMS per channel and about 250 WRMS into 4 ohms. The 9... | |
The Hub: History of Dynaco part 3 Drove a friends Testarossa about 3 weeks ago. Soon learned that a greybeard and a Ferrari is not a good match. Forgot how things happen so quickly in a Ferrari, my reflexes at 67 now can't keep up with what it takes to own one now. But at least ha... | |
The Hub: History of Dynaco part 3 My first and last was a 250GT SWB. Should have kept that baby worth a ton of loot today. Paid $2,500.00 for it in 1964, it was two years old then. Had a blast with it for about three years. Yep the 365 GTB-4 was fabulous aka Daytona, nearly bought... | |
The Hub: History of Dynaco part 3 Well done Bill, brought back a flood or memories, good, bad and downright ugly. Many thanks for these informative postings. | |

Might be able to pick us used near your price point. Check it out, no dissapointments with this and will knock the crap out... | |
Review: Threshold FET Nine Preamplifier The FET Nine was released 1987. Average service life on this unit is an average of 25 years. After that time the caps should be replaced. However in my experience I have never seen caps leak in any Threshold product. This is not to disparage Virid... | |
Review: Forte Model 4a Amplifier Have heard this unit with the Musical Design SP 2B tube preamp from John Hillig. Very nice match with the Forte. Also the Audio Research SP8 sounded damn fine as well. | |
Audio Research D240 MkII vs D130 I second the vote for the D 240 MKII, much nicer signature than the D 130. | |
Cartridge Recs for Dual 1226 Go with a Grado Green and your set. About $80.00 at full retail, can be had for less. Grados work well with the older DUAL's | |
Review: Realistic Minimus 7 Monitor Amen to that Rx8man. Fortunately here there is one RS store left from that period of time. Been a RS store from 1955. He still has a lot of that great old inventory, plus he has great advice and help on anything you buy. But you are quite right th... | |
Modern Jazz Pianist recommendation Bill Charlap recording at the Village Vanguard 2003 on Blue Note is simply spectacular. Harkens back to the days of Bill Evans,Bud Powell and Ahmad Jamal. Nope Jonsher is quite correct this ain't smooth jazz of Bob James or Joe Sample. This is pur... | |
The Hub: Acoustic Research - second in a series Having been in this hobby/business since 1957 I remember these companies such as AR and the other menetioned quite well indeed. And for thier period of time where clearly pushing the design parameters of what could be accomplished. Sadly today mos... | |
VPI HW-19 Upgrade question SAMA or SDS? I am using the current SDS unit. Years ago I used the first generation SDS with great results, not quite as good as todays current offering, but well worth the search. | |
VPI HW-19 Upgrade question SAMA or SDS? For my use with my HW 19 MK IV I have found that the SDS offers more flexability than the SAMA. I took the SDS out of the system for awhile and found that the overall sonic presentation was not at a level with the SDS in the system. The SDS makes ... | |
The Hub: Viva Las Vegas! No doubt these shows will be an overall indicator of the health of the industry and as well as the narrow vertical market we call high end.With national unemployment cradled now at 10 percent, although when one considers those that have fallen of ... |
