| How to tame the midrange??? A couple of suggestions.1) Lose the processor for two channel music. I've never heard one that competes against a dedicated tube preamp or SS preamp. A decent tubed preamp will take you to levels of enjoyment no processor can achieve.2)You are cor... | |
| Best DVD player for redbook CD ??? Buy a decent Dac. | |
| CD Player with best bass?? Hi the only reason I do not mention cd players.Is the fact Pawlowski6132 uses it as a digital transport. Getting a more expensive player to use as a transpot too me is a waste of money.The Sony is a great transport by itself.Now if you want a diff... | |
| CD Player with best bass?? Pawlowski6132Man you have got to hear this unit or something similar.I know now this unit uses 1 6SN7 as the input tube and two 5687s in the output.The stock model uses 3 6SN7s in all sockets. The unit weighs only about 10lbs.I had my doubts when ... | |
| CD Player with best bass?? Hi Joey, This Headamp/Preamp has a 600 volt high efficient transformer. Meaning it will put out 600 volts instead of what most do which is 60% of what their rated.It has a transformer twice the output of the Plitron in my amplifier LOL.Not to ment... | |
| CD Player with best bass?? Hi.. Have you considered changing headamps? I'm expecting a Single Power OTL Headamp/Preamp tomorrow for evaluation. The designer says this model is designed to provide better bass than the standard MPX3..which I haven't heard either. It is called... | |
| Rank Stereophile, & why no Von Schweikert reviews The only part of Stereophile I read is the measurement section.This is the best part of their reviews. This tells me more about a speaker than the magical wizardry spun by a reviewer. I'm sure there are some manufactures who do not wish to be revi... | |
| Most Overated Floor Standing Speaker Up to 15KPair Hey Larry if you think that's bad check out this $30,000 speaker .The company claims a response from 25hz to 60khz. A blind man can see this speaker will never make it to 25Hz with usable output.Verity Sarastro . You can get a $500 speaker with be... | |
| Most Overated Floor Standing Speaker Up to 15KPair Not here to bash the Sophia.I was going over the freq response of this speaker. I noticed by the Stereophile measurements there's a hump that starts to rise around 40Hz and continues past 200Hz. With room lift there's no telling how high the hump ... | |
| Big upgrade with stand alone transport??? I know this sounds like a broken record.You really should try a NON OS DAC.A NON OS DAC has a roll off at 22Khz of 3 dB.This isn't a bad thing either.All that unnecessary hash that's not needed is filtered out.It makes it much easier to concentrat... | |
| Big upgrade with stand alone transport??? Is there something that you feel is missing with your current front end setup? | |

| cary slp-98L vs bat vk3i I've auditioned only one of the Cary tubed preamps which was enough for me. Very fuzzy and slow sounding unit..it did have the stock tubes.It was a fairly current model not sure if it's the same model number as the one your referring to though. It... | |
| Are first order crossovers best? You ever heard of google? Maybe you should do a google search and save us all the trouble.You ask a question and got great answers. The last time I checked this was a public forum. I think some of the links provided are a wee bit more than persona... | |
| Are first order crossovers best? Yes single drivers do have a mechanical filter being the driver itself.But there's a bit more to it than that.I think Wayne Parham explains it very well here Electrical filters and Acoustic Filters.Also when it's right ..it's pretty darn good.Mart... |
