| Is remastered mainly just less jitter? spoutmouzert8 posts04-14-2017 1:55amSorry for going a bit of topic but are there any websites that simply show which is the best lp or cd version to buy for the best recording/sound quality? I was listening to Depeche Mode Violator on CD last nig... | |
| Tandberg 1020 Light Bulb @ tdellamaria My Tandberg 3001A tuner (similar vintage) had these dial lights I had to replace, and if my memory serves me right they were small Neon lamps. Similar to these http://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/lighting/neon-lamps/ https://www.google.c... | |

| Class D = Trash? So, you’re saying it may be a year or two before you buy your first class D amp? If you’re going to wait until class D is absolutely perfect, the good news is that it’ll probably be the last amp you’ll ever need to buy. Good strategy. Yes, I’m wa... | |
| What amp do you use with your passive pre? Before any suggestion can be made, 3 things to look for in an amp and source that will be a perfect match for a 10kohm passive, be it LDR, Potentiometer, Switch Resistor, and some TVC’s. Then there will be no compromises, and you'll get the most t... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! 2channel8231 postsAre any other manufacturers using eGaN transistors? No one I know, it's only a small company that makes them, not one of the majors, maybe Technics have taken all supplies. Maybe this is why from what I heard that the $30k Tec... | |
| CDP Repair or Replace? Seeking advice Please mr_m241 posts04-13-2017 12:01amGeorge. Is that Sanyo laser the same one used in the newer Cambridge 851C??? Yes just to confirm all the Azures except for two use this laser/mech and the fist one one azur340c used either, I'd say it was a MkI... | |

| Class D is just Dandy! Gallium Nitride (GaN) and is poised to uproot the high-end audio world. In fact Yes as I posted here, these eGaN fets are what Technics are using in their new $30k class-d and with it are able to double the frequency of the switching noise. And t... | |
| Class D = Trash? input buffer boards that allow a choice of op amps Maybe this will be the future of class D, with op amp rolling Can they get any cheaper, in manufacturing with opamps instead of discrete transistors.Any hi-end linear poweramp that used op... | |

| CDP Repair or Replace? Seeking advice Please why are you thinking of messing with the laser? OP "Well, the Cambridge AZUR transport coughed up a furball and will not spin a disk, which sounded better than the Sony connection." Why not for $10 lousy bucks? Is it taboo to fix things yourself ... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! though i really should try them with a passive pre, just to hear their true nature.. Yes that is the way to hear what they are really like, or direct if you don’t start to "bit strip" with a source digital volume control by going below 75% of ful... |
