| Prima Luna EVO series amps/preamps now available... @klhrw1The EVO 400 replaces the HP. It has 8 power tubes. There should be no issues connecting the previous generation preamp to the EVO other than the previous generation preamp does not have balanced and the EVO 400 amp does. | |
| best sound with an ipad into my home stereo. I meant to add that if by balanced, you mean the balanced style digital connection to your dac, then the Singxer is what you want. Search Singxer or Kitsune. | |
| best sound with an ipad into my home stereo. No offense to previous posters but those suggestions are likely not the high quality connection that you are looking for.What you probably want to do is get the advanced camera adapter kit from Apple. Depending on which version of the ipad you hav... | |
| VAC 160i SE vs Audio Research GSi75 Yes @keithr thats when we met, fortuitously so. After that amp, I bought the 160i integrated and have had a few Avatars of various vintages through the years. The Avatar should still be in production with only el34’s but I digress. The GSI75 is th... | |
| The Music Room I have bought from and sold to this company. They are courteous, reasonable and I couldn’t recommend them more highly. | |
| Leben CS 600 and Harbeth vs Audio Note vs ATC vs JM Reynaud Which audio note? Which Harbeth? ATC? Reynaud? | |
| VAC 160i SE vs Audio Research GSi75 I owned both amps albeit with several years in between and the systems were in 2 different homes, different speakers, sources, wire, etc. With that caveat, they are both terrific but very different. The Vac, built like a tank, exceptional company ... | |
| The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up @janehamble Fair enough then. Your problem is with @teajay and I gather had he never done the Lab12 review, you would have no problem?I appreciate you taking the time to reply and if I somehow triggered the snarkiness at the end of your first sent... | |
| The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up @janehamble What is it you are saying exactly? Its no news at all that 6moons charges a fee to review a piece of gear. Is it your position that by doing so it should invalidate their findings? The fee is charged up front along with other rules gov... | |
| The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up @janehamble Thank you for the kind reply. I do not disagree with you in the least....in general. I do, however, disagree with you specifically as it relates to @teajay for the following reasons.he has an impeccable reputation here on Audiogon. He ... | |
| The Six Moons.com review on the Mhdt Labs Orchid DAC just went up @janehamble Your post throwing shade at @teajay may have been an attempt at humor but why does everyone have to be so aggressive, cynical or unkind? Buy it or don’t buy it, nobody cares, least of all Teajay. Everything he has recommended (based on... | |
| Looking for an integrated tube amp under $2500 Regarding proper ventilation and cooling of tube equipment, or class A amplification for that matter, everyone should consider a company called AC Infinity.I own their Controller 8 and four of their 140mm fans. The controller comes with four zone ... | |
| best under $1000 digital front end new or used? The original Chord Hugo would be great as it has a great headphone section and decodes almost every format. Can be used as a preamp as well. For a little more, the Border Patrol DAC and the MHDT Orchid seem to be checking alot of boxes for alot of... | |
| Black Cat Cable's/Coppertone wires are amazing good! I have both Coppertone interconnects and Coppertone speaker cables. They are seriously good and I agree wholeheartedly with Teejay. I have also had a variety of other cables in and out of my system through the years at all price points and I have... | |
| Is Pre-Amp needed George, your absolute assertions are not absolute for all equipment. The ARC preamp provides more of everything, especially the layering of instruments. Put a great preamp in your system and see for yourself. If you dont like it then you have only... |
