| Why the difference? I have owned these players for years, very good value for a really good sounding CD player. I am surprised more people have not discovered them. They were Stereophile Class B Recommended component years ago but although they did sound good some un... | |
| 12AT7 tube Hello I have a Lector CDP 7TL Mk1 CD player. I did extensive tube rolling when I first got the unit and ended up with Telefunken 12AT7s, they just sounded the best. With the Telefunkens the Lector comes pretty close to my Audiomeca Mephisto II.X a... | |
| Unity Audio Signature One These are really nice speakers, I still own my pair which I purchased new around 1992. Go to the Cerious Audio website, I found the original sales brochures there, here is the link.http://www.cerioustechnologies.com/Unity/Brochures.html or just fo... | |
| Power Cable suggestions for Pass Labs X250.5 I have been using an Audience Power Cord with my Pass 250.5 with very good results. They can be found for well under $300 here on the Gon. | |
| Help. Thor owner messes up Unless you know what you are doing do not open up the power supply. Its very difficult to get inside since there are circuit boards on the top and bottom with the guts of the power supply in the middle. I own two Thor units, a TA1000 pre and TA30... | |
| Tube amps with BALLS in the low end registrer ??? I too own Parsifal Encores and dont know why you would need all that power. I am using Joule Electra Heavens Gate tube mono amps (70 wpc) and its more than enough power. If I wanted to go to a higher powered tube amp to match with the Veritys I... | |

| Kharma 3.2.2 I believe the new Kharma 3.2.2 has a slightly larger cabinet plus an additional midbass driver. Curious what the price will be. Go to the Kharma website for more details. | |

| Does Verity Parsifals mate well with solid? AlfredosmI owned Kharma 3.1s and sold them to buy Parsifal Encores. The Veritys are in a totally difference league than the 3.1s. I tried numerous amps with the 3.1s and the only one that really made these sing were OTLs. Other tubes amps were pr... | |
| Wadia vs. Audiomeca I have heard various Wadia models but have never done a direct comparision. In my system I am using the Audiomeca Mephisto IIx with Parsifal Encore Sspeakers and Joule Electra pre & amps and the bass is very deep and tight. Actually the bass i... | |
| High Efficiency Monitors - List Reubent above is correct on the 3A DeCapos. I am using Reference 3A DeCapo I speakers (92db) on Skylan 24 inch stands each filled with 50# of sand driven by 9 WPC 300B amps. These speakers will play much louder than I ever listen to music; my room... | |
| Phono preamps I also owned the Parasound PPH-100 and I would look elsewhere. I was using a high output MC cartridge, the gain was barely OK but the sound was very dull and uninvolving. For about the same money I would go with the Bellari mentioned above. | |
