| Aestheix Calypso owners,tube advise needed I have Teslovak E83ccs in the 12AX7 positions | |
| Preamp help. Thanks for the input and help. I bought a 1 year old stock Aesthetix Calypso. It may be similar to the Audio Horizons 2.1, but that's a large part of the fun in this hobby... trying something new and hoping it sounds good in your system. | |
| Class A amplifiers - which are considered the best Pass labs Aleph series are some of the best. Many have complained of not enough power or base control. With the right speakers and the help of a subwoofer or two... these are very musical amps! | |
| You know you have "it" bad when................... when you post to this thread. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I received my Audio Horizons Transparency ICs this afternoon. I will let them burn in for 50hrs or so before giving my opinion on the A.H. 2.1R preamp in my system. Just replacing the Audioquest Snake ICs has made a substantial improvement in the ... | |
| Is anything better than Aleph 3? Another good one is the Aleph 30. Looks more like the "J" than the "3". Like the Aleph 3, can be found for less $$$. All these great small class A solid state amps will sound boring in the wrong system...but with the right speakers, like small S.E... | |
| Is anything better than Aleph 3? That is the first time I have heard boring and Aleph 3 in the same sentence. | |
| Is anything better than Aleph 3? The Onkyo A-9555 will run cool and cost less to operate...but not in the same class as the Aleph 3. I have not heard a digital amp that sounds natural or warm etc. I agree with Peterayer about the Aleph line, the 2s are great and there is a pair f... | |
| Is anything better than Aleph 3? I am bi-amping with 2 Aleph 3s. Owning many amps over the years I still have not heard anything as true to the music as the Aleph 3. So I did reverse my field and went back in time for the Alephs. Speaker matching is the only problem. My speakers ... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier First of all corrections to my last post, "me" instead of "be", and insert "get" in my last sentence. My typing does not always catch up with my thoughts.I do not know which tubes are in his base model 2.1. I have 2.1R w/ a volume remote and no ot... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I picked up the 2.1R today. It is up and running in my system. All my longer interconnects are XLR and I was using a pair of Cardas XLR to RCA adaptors to connect my Aleph 3s to my Pass Labs X-0.2 pre with balanced cables. For now I only have a pa... | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Is it Joseph's practice to give out new units for audition? I would think he'd have broken in 2.1s for audition. | |
| Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I am new to this post. I have been a lover of classic analog tuners for many years. I am taking my Sansui TU-919 tuner to Joseph for mods. I started reading this thread and decided to kill two birds... I have wanted to try a tubed pre with my Pass... | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? I have a 1988 1 Ton duelly Toyota with a service body. I've had it for 20 years and drive it back and forth to work. But my weekend ride is a 2005 Black on Black BMW M3 Coup with a Competition package. I upgraded the suspension to a Dinan JRZ Stag... | |
| Pass X-250.5 or Plinius SA-103 I think if you like the Plinius amps, to my ears it is similar in presentation to both the the Aleph and the X series Pass equipment, depending on the position of the bias switch. I had the SA-100 and would compare it to the X-150 Pass A/B design.... |
