Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. This is what makes a hobby in audio fun real people helping other people with knowledge and experience. Thank you kind sir. | |
What separate tube phono stage do you use ? I've had a Gold Note PH10 for a little over a week now and i'm very impressed with it so far. I love the flexibility of it, and it does have balanced outs. | |
C.E.C TL2 replacement or now its time to go cd spinnerless and put it all on a hard drive or something like a storage device-streamer-DAC. like the bluesound vault2 and aurender products. its the way of the future as cd players-spinners are becoming harder to find as m... | |
Shipping calculator on Audiogon? Why don't you use the shipping companies calculator there's will always be more accurate then Agon's. I'd never use the one here. always use the shipping company-postal services with proper weights, size and insurance-signature required. | |
Can I use an isolation stand with an isolation pad? In the end 20hz tone is 56.5 ft long so your neighbour will almost always hear the bass louder then you. even a 40hz tone is 28ft long so bass is always a hard thing to tame in smaller spaces. I've seen an issues were my friend had no bass in his ... | |

What I miss about vintage gear Luxman, Accuphase also have full featured integrated amps with the meters etc. There are a few more out there also that still build them like they used to. I'm really hopping some manufacturers start including the meters, tone controls etc. Again ... | |

My amp is toast I think you would be making a mistake before you at least have a local repair shop take a look. for the cost of an hour service it would be nice to know if its really toast or just a simple fix. Smoke can come out for the tiniest resistor failing ... | |
Efficient 2 way bookshelf/monitors under 2k I would think with only 6wpc you should be looking for 98db and up unless you listen quite low and-or near field. Horns like Klipsch, Full rangers like some of the omegas-fostex-voxativ-Rethm then your into stuff like AudioNote An (92-94db) series... | |
Best way to integrate a subwoofer into Luxman Preamp + L-509X Integrated system? Have you tried turning up the bass-treble tone controls for low level listening that is one of the reasons they are there. | |
Apple vs Amazon Get a Tidal free trial. Tidal has the best sound quality by far IMO. | |
My recent experience with 3 pre-amps - help me pinpoint the next upgrade. Some of the most enjoyable music was with a system i had with a Cary SLP 93 preamp, Cary SLM 100 mono blocks (100wpc) and ProAc response 2.5's. Probably 9 years ago now when I had all that. Proac's and tube just seem to gel the best imo. You shoul... | |
