| Supratek Owners Thread Wig, I spoke with Mick before ordering mine and asked what upgrades I needed to consider. He said the only decision was whether or not I wanted chrome. I was a little surprised but that's the story. I'm 2 months in. Jeff | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Little Feat at the Beacon a few weeks ago. They recreated Waiting for Columbus. A week prior we saw Molly Tuttle in a small church in Montclair. That woman can really play. | |
| The review wehave been promising is up Getting back to the subject at hand. Has anyone who actually spends their hard earned money heard this piece of equipment? I'd love to get an impression from a user that plunked down $7500 to see if they feel satisfied with their purchase. | |

| Toolshed Amps 300b Stereo Amp I just took delivery. Matt packed this thing to withstand a nuclear blast. I'll post something once I drag it down to my listening room and get it set up. | |

| Toolshed Amps 300b Stereo Amp For the moment I'm going straight from my dac into the new amp. I have a Don Sachs model 2 that was just upgraded. I'll try it and see what's producing better sound. The Zesto is something I'm not familiar with. I'll take a look. | |
| Toolshed Amps 300b Stereo Amp Did you order his pre as well? It's a big number. | |
| Toolshed Amps 300b Stereo Amp Matt texted me on Monday and said my 300b would be shipped by the end of the week. Really looking forward to this amp. | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread Before the Weiss I was running everything through an Oppo 205 upgraded by ModWright. The Weiss is a considerable step up, everything is faster so notes on complicated passages stay individual and precise. Friday Night in San Francisco is a grea... | |
| Don Sachs Owners Thread Ok, first impressions since upgrade AND installation of my new Weiss DAC. Background is blacker, more detail (that's the DAC and the upgrades. There's a drop of tube noise but considering there are at least 15 in the signal path it's not a surpr... |
