| Question about wpc on tube amps Wow…. 8 - 300B’s! Let’s see if you got Takatsuki that would be about $8.8K! ‘I am using Takatsuki for my headphone amp… fortunately only 2. | |
| Question about wpc on tube amps @avanti1960 +1 Tube amps also seem to sound a bit more powerful for their wattage, but the most obvious strength is when pushed. You do not want to plan for pushing your amp. High powered amps cost lots of money, worth it if you can afford the... | |
| Aurender N10 connection with the network Honestly, it should sound much better than just a “nice upgrade” from a MAC mini. This is a huge upgrade. Yes, just connect the solid state drive. The Aurender’s is great at detecting attached or network drives and importing the files. We n... | |
| Don't sell your tube amps Yes, tubes will be around for a long time… but the internal combustion engine not so much. They are destroying our planet. The electrical infrastructure will be improved, the ICE will be banned… in the next thirty years… or our planet will become ... | |
| Newest Audio Research News: I would look at this very differently. If I was wanted any ARC equipment I would order it immediately. Before possible price increases, when you know they are making incredibly high quality equipment. I have been involved in integrating purcha... | |
| How can you evaluate a system with highly processed music? You can not. You must use a “known sound”.. unprocessed acoustical to calibrate your system, then you can be sure that electronically and processed music is being reproduced with equal fidelity. | |

| Turntable Isolation Journey OP, Absolutely. SRA is for micro vibrations, not foot falls. It is for top notch turntables, not to make up for bad environments or substandard tables. This string is too long to re-read every time I run into it again. For excellent tables... | |
| Turntable Isolation Journey I had a Silent Running Audio Ohio Class isolation platform built for my Linn LP12. It made a very positive effect in reducing the noise floor and adding focus. Very highly recommended. | |
| Newest Audio Research News: @rumblestrip Trent bought it from group that owns Mac about two to three years ago. He had a great vision for the company. Great guy, well, managing a $71M company through rough economic times is a challenge for even those that have done it t... | |
| Playing CDs sounds better than Qobuz — dammit @soix +1 Noise in audio is something you have to learn to hear. Decades ago it ceased to be hiss or anything you point to, but it is the noise floor. It is obvious indirectly in not having a dead quiet background that you can fall into. It c... | |
