| Rarest Brands for Sale on 'Gon Albert, have you had a chance to hear the latest DNM gear in a system designed for them? Interesting times! | |
| Rarest Brands for Sale on 'Gon R_F_sayles,Yes, in a word it's excellent. I'm not sure I am ready to go where HP has gone (keep in mind he is hearing the big brother) but it is one of the very best amps SS or tube I have ever had or heard... and this list is quite long.In genera... | |
| Which Tube Preamp under $10K? Duke,I, for one, can say that I do not, have not and probably never will feel this way about your posts (see stanhifi). They (your posts) are indeed some of the more informative with your position and biases always clearly stated.IMO it woould be ... | |
| BEST LOW VOLUME FULL RANGE SPEAKERS? Trelja,I have the DNM PA3S amp and the 3Dsix pre (I'm not sure there are any other sixes in the states at this time) along with all DNM cables and I use the Resolution Audio Opus 21 into the 3Dsix via DIN to DIN (this bypasses the VC of the Opus)I... | |
| Rarest Brands for Sale on 'Gon Smokester,You're welcome anytime....particularly if you're willing to lug the V8's with you :-)I've recently been directly comparing the Wavestream with the ASR basis exclusive.The MFA is dueling with the ASR Emitter 1 exclusive and the new TRL st... | |
| BEST LOW VOLUME FULL RANGE SPEAKERS? To Trejla's point... an amp/system, that is known to me, that works very well **with the right speaker** at conveying music at low volume is the DNM gear. | |
| With all your knowlege you have gained over time, Similar to Hooper....I would decide first if live music or hi-fi were my reference. I personally don't think this is a right/wrong answer...just be sure you determine which it is before picking a path.My experience is that this can be a useful com... | |
| Tube amp, size and power info........ Name the speaker and this will help.I've had 97db speakers with a 16 ohm impedance that sounded best with 100watts of SS...this is the what the designer voiced them with.My experience is that things are not always as they seem. | |
| Rarest Brands for Sale on 'Gon I also thought of Wavestream and DNM...two of my favorites.I live only a few miles from the analog room in San Jose and have heard Scott's V8's many times....excellent.I believe George Cardas also uses these amps.I own Scott's newest creation his ... | |
| ASR Emitter ii Exclusive I have the Emitter 1 exclusive and it's a very strong amp with lots of current delivery capabilities...the Emitter II is double the power...hard to believe it couldn't handle any load...but the MBL is tough for sure.I've found the ASR folks very r... | |
| from solid state to tube I've always moved both tube and SS into and out of my systems and IMHO the differences are becomming a lot less obvious. I think SS is very, very good these days.Examples (which I am listening to now) are the ASR Emitter, the new TRL st225 and the... | |
| Avalon Eidolon Diamond and Tenor Audio OTL Having owned the Tenors (great amps) I do not think they could deal well with the impedance of the Eidolon. More than anything OTLs will like a steady and ideally higer impedance.I'm sure there will be better matches suggested. | |
| 845 SET recommendation I've owned Komura SET 845's, Nagra SET 845's and Bel Canto SET 845's....all very good.I currently have the JC Verdier 845 luxe se mono's and find them most to my liking.Seriuos transformers and serious power supply are a good start for a good/exce... | |
| What is the best value you have encountered? Any used DNM preamp.I picked up a DNM 3c twin for $1000 on a "flyer" a while ago and it astounded me (as well as replacing some way more pricey stuff).Their gear is not cheap new but seems to sell for relatively low prices used in the US.The DNM d... |
