| Cable elevators - conventional wisdom wrong? Ted, Precison Audio clearly states that their cable risers are coated with a non-conductive glaze vs what you described as a, "...conductive surface so that high voltage uninsulated wires do not spark..." | |
| Transistor Preamp that sounds like a Tube Preamp? Geez, if a phone call turned this spat into a love fest, maybe tbg and I should get on the phone! :) | |
| Opinions on Wyred 4 Sound ICE amps That was helpful Coffey! | |
| Spectron Musician III SE Mk.2? What Changed? Bravo, Dob.This whole thing has been blown out of proportion. Talk about a tempest in a teapot.I don't own a Spectron, but I would like to try one. Simon's attempt at humor or sarcasm, whichever, wouldn't affect my decision to buy a Spectron one b... | |
| Best Preamp $2,000.00 budget Mrjstark,"...it would be a very small/minimal higher and upper middle range frequencies coloration that I can only describe as edginess or grainy saturation that might be interpret as a extra information or realization of the detail that is actual... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Thanks for the good times Mick! Best of luck to you. If you are half as good with grapes as you are with preamps, the wine wiil be world class. | |

| Preamp Deal of the Century Stevem,I guess this is why I am confused.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1016931418&openflup&3285&4#3285The link that you provided is the exact same link we all discussed last time. You actually posted in the cap roll... | |

| Preamp Deal of the Century Zachzdb,I think everyone here would welcome comparisons of the Supratek to any other preamp if the poster has actually compared the two, but to just come in and try to hijack the thread by rambling about another product is a different kettle of fish. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Don't feed the monster. It only encourages off-topic posts when we respond to the irrelevant intrusions. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Here's what I don't get. It seems that some here think that one shouldn't change caps, pots or even tubes in Suprateks simply because, "Mick didn't build 'em that way."I think that is just so much nonsense. As much as I respect Mick's work, he's n... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Not my experience at all with V-caps. I love them, but who am I to argue with Mick.I find the V-caps get rid of a lot of fuzz. Yes, they do seem increase detail, but I would rather describe them as more invisible. And don't forget, the upstream co... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you Tom!May you find much joy and happiness in the true meaning of Christmas during this holiday season and in the year to come.Aloha,Warren | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century Slowhand,No, I would not say the V-Caps changed the tonality of the Supratek in my experience. Yes, I would say the V-Caps are considerably more detailed. That does not mean analytical and cold, but rather much more invisible. It seems to me that ... |
