| LFD MISTRAL..and partner gear I used a Mistral Powerstage (power amp) with my Tukans with great success. The amp has two sets of binding posts, so biwiring was a breeze (two pairs of AP Oval 9s). Supposed to share traits with the integrated. Used a Primare HT processor as the ... | |
| good, small speakers I'd try to find a pair of used Tukans. I've never run mine through a Classik, but understand that they are a great match. I've gone through a lot of monitors (including Gershman X-1s and Merlin TSM-Ms), but have always held onto my Tukans. I'm usi... | |
| Speakers for small room? I'd second both the Totem Arros and Linn Tukans. I have both, in rooms that require near-wall placement. (The Totems are actually holding their own in a 20 X 30 room as part of a HT system.) I didn't truly appreciate how "unfussy" both these speak... | |
| Noise Problem Conrad Johnson PV 12 Yep - tubes. My PV12 is dead quiet - until the tubes start going. | |
| Signal Flow of older AudioQuest Topaz I had same question (with the same ICs) ... Asked Audioquest via email and was told: "The signal should flow from the single band (pre-amp) to the double band (amp)". | |
| Which speakers work close to back wall? Placement has been a major problem for me - solved with Arros in my living room (HT), Linn Tukans (home office), and I'm waiting for a pair of Merlin TSM-Ms (on the way...) for my "office" office... (Little kids, WAF, and/or not enough room to kee... | |
| DTIPro 32 on the Blink No luck with change of cables, power supply, or sequence for power up of equipment. It doesn't seem to matter what's connected (or if anything is connected at all - input or output). The unit seems fine for a couple of seconds, then completely loc... | |
| DTIPro 32 on the Blink Thanks for the ideas .... I'll give them a try on Monday and let you know how it goes (that system is in my office....) I've been trying to use it with my Esoteric P-10 transport ... conventional digital cable out - into a DDE 3.0 via I2S ... (wit... | |
| DTIPro 32 on the Blink Guess I'm spending too much time with my 5 year old ... the DTI is taking "time outs" on its own initiative (that's the fundamental problem)... And a meaningful spanking would certainly inflict more harm on my hand than the unit... However, I have... | |
| AA DTI Pro32 Manual Thanks to all of you for the input.... Ghostrider45 has very kindly offered to send along a copy of the manual (BIG THANKS), so it looks like I'm set. I certainly appreciate the offer, Jaycee. (I have other AA units, and remembered the warning abo... | |
| Best speaker a wife would tolerate After years of listening to my wife complain about my Vandersteens (as noted above - big black things), about a month ago I replaced them with Totem Arros .... incredibly small and elegant floorstander, and they don't seem to mind being placed clo... |
