Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp My arsenal of isolation devices include: mapleshade wooden blocks (someoen gave them to me as gift), some kind of blocks made from rubebr and wood (give to me by paul) and a set of solid metal spikes with plates to hold them. I have tried them all... | |
Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp Agear: I agree with on audio mystics. Paul is an audio mystic or may be an audio saint or a sufi. Sometimes I imagine Paul sitting like a Bhudha and meditating about new mods, hahaha. | |
Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp Rx8man: Thanks. Yes to the magazines being an entertainment. But the real entertainment is audiophile themselves who go by these ratings and by "the higher the price of a cable, the bettery" I rather spend my time watching a standup comedy. Here i... | |

Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp Dart6 and Agear: I am a cool customer, albeit a cool and patient listener. I do not have the ability to make fast a/b/a comparisons, nor do I believe in making such conclusions. When I test a new audio product, I have to live with it for a signifi... | |
Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp Grannyring:I am listening to the Dude and it is taking my breath away but the question is how does it compare to my reference pre-amp. See my thread in preamp reviews, entitled "Possibly the best pre-amp one can have"http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-... | |

Apogeee/Bryston Advice needed Rsjm:Contrary to the popular belief, Apogees hybrid need a lot of power, just to make the woofer keep up to the ribbon speed. I have owned Apogee Centaur Majors, which were my references speakers for eight years before I upgraded to all ribbon (an... | |

Qawwali ....Nasrut Fateh Ali Khan NFAK was an artist who is born once in a century. With his sheer vocal power, he could bring a spell to his audience. He was and remains in a league of his own. It seems unfortunate that just when he was bringing an impact of his music to the West... | |
