| To pre-amp. or not to pre-amp! Hegel H20 has very low input impedance at 10k , and will need a nice low output impedance active solid state preamp, as most tube and passive preamps will not like the 10k loading.Cheers George | |
| Latest D'Agostino monoblock amps??? Just a little.Guess what happed to the review comment section "This article has been closed to further comment."Cheers George | |
| Are Pre-Amps necessary? Your the one who reacted (very defensively) to my comments first, where I was just agreeing with two other members that had nothing to do with you | |
| Are Pre-Amps necessary? vanson1 Are Pre-Amps necessary?With all the advances in digital sources, do we still need a $5,000 pre-amp?All we need is a switching device and maybe a Phono preamp/RIAA curve device. Preamps are a dinosaur left over from the phono days, when s... | |
| How important is the pre-amp? Georgie in product protection mode. As I said no, but Ralph most definitely is. | |

| Fuses Well all I can say to you is, forest and trees, you can twist it to suit yourself, and that will be your problem then, and no one else’s. | |
| Fuses Fine, I'm hoping what I’ve said helps others trying to do the same. As I've said it many times on Audiogon. Cheers George | |
| Fuses Can’t see the forest for the trees???If you don’t believe me.Believe this, someone from Audiocircle who tried by-passing a quality cap in the single path (also known as a coupling cap) to see what he got, and there’s many more articles to read abo... | |
| Fuses Sorry George,I can’t take anything you say seriously. You have blown all your credibility with me, and at this point I am more inclined to thinking that bypassing capacitors is a good idea just because you stand so vehemently against it.Don’t be s... | |
| Fuses Told you already, any one that says it a good idea, has no idea. By-passing powersupply or voltage rail caps is a good idea, but it’s not a good idea to bypass caps that are in the signal path as they will have different time constants, and smear... | |
| Determining current flow to install "audiophile" fuses. +1Never a truer word said, also AC is Alternating Current, which changes 60 x a second, or 50 down here in Au.Cheers George | |

| The "Snake Oil" Trope Can’t the same argument be said, "Just get the premium fuse and try it for yourself to see if it makes a difference?" Why spend $200+ for nothing!!!When all you have to do is this1: “Just re-new your fuse with the same amperage, if it’s old and ha... |
