| Is It Worh Modding An Amp I put TKD volume pot and AudioNote Copper caps in an older Cary Audio SLP94 preamp and it was a nice upgrade over stock. I think as others have said it really depends on what your looking for but yes changing a few key components can change the s... | |
| Mcintosh MAC7200 or Hegel H390 for a new pair of Kef R7 META The mac with the tuner and DAC would be a nice optioned receiver and the DAC2 optional board is definitely something to consider its quite good for the money. Both are excellent amps but i think you get more for the money from the MAC, not to ment... | |
| Accuphase P-4600 100V to 120V why don't you get a 120 to 100v step down transformer? just get one large enough for the power draw, usually shown on the back close to the power plug. I'd aim for twice the rating but generally a 1000w step down transformer should be sufficient. ... | |
| Replacing My Maggie 3.6R Sounds like you should move/try an open baffle type of speaker to get what your missing. OB's will have all the similar things you like in the Magi's but will add richness, dynamics, slam and tone. Also be much more efficient. | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? Not sure how efficient your looking for but i have done the Klipsch LaScala thing for years and was happy after some modifications i.e. damping of horns, upgrading the crossovers and drivers etc. The one speaker that gets overlooked here mostly ... | |
| How to Open the Sonus Faber Olympica IIIs (Please Help) check if access is from the back, but my thinking is there is a trim ring around the driver mounting area that will need to come off to expose the driver mounting screws. probably a trim ring around the outer edge of the driver. | |
| Where Do I Go from Here? I would not spend that kind of money on any audio component if I was in my mid 70's unless money was not an issue. One hearing is not as good, Two no new money coming in, Three do you really need an upgrade or are you just wanting a change? 20 ... | |
| Relaxed/Analog sounding DAC for under $10k (used or new) For well under your budget you can get a Chord Dave used. One of the best DAC's I've had and regret selling. Lot of options in your price range so take your time listen to as many as you can. I'm eyeing the new LTA Tube DAC right now. | |
| You're not a true audiophile unless... to me an audiophile is someone who looks to improve the sound of their audio playback. Its about the love of music and making it sound better, even if that's just adjusting your speakers on your desk top to make them image better, that's an audiop... | |
| matching pre for Dynaco mk4 monoblocks Tubes4hifi may have parts. I dumped mine after spending more than they were worth trying to get them reliable and noise free. I’ll never buy another dynaco amp. | |
| Watts! How many do we need? watts are watts, a watt will do the same work regardless of how its derived. amp topology, power supply type, amount of components in the circuit, speaker efficiencies, etc. will make differences. as long as your not clipping the amp, putting the... | |
| I need some high quality Printed Circuit Boards Made (DYNACO ST-70) Vacuum Tube Audio ST70 parts (tubes4hifi.com) | |
| Recommend me a tube integrated amplifier Friend has AN-K’s he runs the AudioNote Cobra integrated and I have to say its a match made in heaven. Hugely enjoyable and some of the best sound I’ve heard in a while. Even the DAC is quite good in the cobra. Not sure if it has sub out but IMO ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 120 I'm wondering if the reason your not engaged anymore with your tube amp was due to tube starting to ware out. This is typical of tubes that are getting old and are in need of replacing. | |
| Heretic Loudspeakers out of Canada roxy54 @glennewdick "Well then maybe they shouldn't have done made it look the way they did on their webpage" No idea don't really care as I've never heard of them, i was just using google to assist the OP since they didn't know how. |
