Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
What is your source? Analog or digital? I agree that the source is most important George. I currently have an Aesthetix Romulus Signature dac/CD player. I very much like it.

Wow, you have the perfect source! Please let me know what it is. Also, please let me know the perfect speaker, amp, and well you already have the perfect preamp.No kidding. I really want to know what you consider perfect beyond your passive.

You know I said all sources are flawed and they are for sure. Nothing in audio is perfect unfortunately.

Agreed Charles. Resistors are relatively cheap $5-$15 and folks overlook them. They play a significant role for sure in musicality and resolution. It is certainly much easier and doable if you can perform these mods yourself and listen...change et...

Nelson Pass has made and is making some pretty expensive actives.Very expensive. Apparenty he thinks they sound very real. If not, one would say he is not being true to himself and we customers. He sells these expensive actives touting neutrality,...

CzariveyYou are right. Just disconnect the silly thing. The amp is not in a cab or rack and will breath just fine.That Muse is a fine alternative for sure.

Ha! Love your comments George. As you know I have tried your passive three times, but just prefer my tube active. But, I do like the way your passive sounds and it is a killer value. Just not as real sounding as my active.I soooo wanted to like yo...

Look out Charles as you must now look at the all important resistors in key positions. Oh ya, they matter. Some nice Vishay TX 2575 Z Foils! Also the very musical Shinkoh. Super Franks!

The Crown is totally different and I have heard it. Nice class D amp.

TasouliTake a look at my system page....many changes. My new speaker is Lahave and I upgraded the crossover and placed it externally.I purchased them from Chris at Jupiter directly. He has a few now, but not enough to add them to his website just ... 
Review: Lahave Audio Khara Speaker
Well hi Bob. I never owned Dale's speakers, but have heard that model on several occasions and for extended periods of time. One time with Dale's uber expensive SS monoblock amps. They are both cut from the same sonic cloth in many ways. Fast, res...

Ha, no, no Charles. I said I am one million percent sure he will like the whatever percentage improvement! Ya, Jupiter should hire me to sell their line and be comfortable that I will never over promise and under deliver :)

MarqmikeI am 1,000,000 percent sure the Jupiter caps will make you smile big! A no brainer. Just replace the same value caps. You need to first know what is inside and how they are mounted.. No downsides and only big smile improvements.Glad to hel...
