| So I bought the Willsenton R-800i The Willsenton amp seems to also offer great value. The bones of the amp look to be good especially for the price. | |
| So I bought the Willsenton R-800i @charles1dad Have you heard anything about the new Coincident Frankenstein 300b stereo amp for $2500? Seems like a nice value…. | |
| Circle Labs A200 Integrated amplifier review - It will appeal to both tube and SS lovers…… Ha! I thought so, but was not totally sure I remembered correctly. Older age. You obviously have advanced listening skills and good taste in audio components! I use Hijiri HCS-25 and love them! Yes, I like them more than my own. I stopped making ... | |
| Circle Labs A200 Integrated amplifier review - It will appeal to both tube and SS lovers…… @hchilcoat Please remind me of the speaker cables you are using. | |
| Thor ta-1000 pre cap replacement -- advice It is a wonderful preamp and still a great value used. I know it sounds beautiful with the AN caps and am happy for you. Amazing how changing caps can change the sound of gear to be subjectively more enjoyable! | |
| Circle Labs A200 Integrated amplifier review - It will appeal to both tube and SS lovers…… @hchilcoat Wild Oak looks great! It was my wife’s and my favorite finish in the current offerings. | |
| Circle Labs A200 Integrated amplifier review - It will appeal to both tube and SS lovers…… I would go to Colin for tubes to assure they are properly tested and matched from Circle Labs. I have purchased some from EBay and one set was microphonic. | |

| Circle Labs A200 Integrated amplifier review - It will appeal to both tube and SS lovers…… @hchilcoat Big congrats to you on the WVL Sons. I have heard them many times and think they are special speakers! What finish did you decide on? The Circle Labs is indeed a wonderful match. | |
| Thor ta-1000 pre cap replacement -- advice If the AN caps end up sounding a tad too warm and or tame, then your best bet are the Vcap Odams. I upgraded two Thor preamps like yours over the years and the Odams are a great match for this unit. They are also smaller in size and fit well. I d... | |
| Please share pics of what inside YOUR power conditioners Yes indeed landscaping power tools need innovation to quiet them down! I am also tired of hearing it from inside my home. However, noise on the AC line is a different sort of noise that aggravates me and others. This noise is not like trace DC le... | |
| Joseph Audio: Perspectives and Pearls I did suggest Mr Joseph was both a designer and assembler. All good information here. Does anyone know if the crossovers are part to part wired or a circuit board execution? Any electrolytic caps or iron core inductors in use? I am interested in t... | |
| Joseph Audio: Perspectives and Pearls The Perspectives are interesting. Cannot find the sensitivity spec on their site? I think it may be low, based on the Pearl model. JA seems more like an assembler sourcing drivers and cabinets externally. Does Mr Joseph build his own crossovers or... | |
| I can't believe this. Ozzy this experience is completely and utterly unacceptable. Most sorry. To chalk this up to “part of the new reality” is accepting as normal this sort of service level and behavior. Once we do that, then we get what we accept. It does indeed beco... | |
| Thought I’d share: Nicely done and practical DAC review LOL! Funny stuff Wolf! Also agree on that D brand. |
