| The future of preamps AudioL, ya my Dude has some parts I wanted for my tastes including Vishay Z Foil & Shinkoh resistors, Neotech top quality copper wire and 3001 cable for the signal path, extra power supply capacitance......Nice Dude for sure! | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I chose the Mills and Obbligato parts based on experience with them in the past and user reviews. They are just very good for the money. Not the best, but good.I am not sure of the results yet. The parts are still burning in. I am putting together... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house I will report back on 88! | |
| The future of preamps Yes, I still have my Dude fully tricked out with Duelund CAST caps and some other goodies. I like to fiddle and mod and have fun with point to point wired tube gear. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Well I upgraded the caps and resistors in my Coincident Total Victory III speakers. What a complete hassle and hard work! The wires inside the speaker are very, very short making it darn difficult to take the tweeter out. Nor could I pull out the ... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house The room correction feature is awesome! Ya, I was told to try 88 instead of 96 on Wave Editor...I may do this! Some feel it sounds even better. | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Enjoying my Lampy more than ever as I learn how to maximize the sound of my computer based transport. Something else I learned from Steve and Empirical that is yet another upgrade in sound.....Use a program called Wave Editor and up sample your 16... | |
| The future of preamps AudioL, I agree 100 percent with you. I did just that and the music sounded very good direct, just not as good as my preamp. Both made good music for sure! | |
| The future of preamps Arthur is a man with opinions like all of us. It is strange all of the products he says are the best of the best are Coincident. Is this just a coincidence for Coincident? Highly unlikely in all honesty folks. At the minimum, it simply reflects hi... | |
| Impedance mismatch question George, I agree with you. Wow, I think this is a first! My tube preamp has an output impedance much like Almarg outlined. Can go as high as 4k etc.....I have run it with all kinds of amps with as low as 22k input impedances with no issues at all. ... | |
| The future of preamps Charlesdad +1 - Well stated. I look for the same thing in my gear - so far tubes give it the best. Well, at least in my experience. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Salectric, and others,I am going to upgrade the parts in my speaker and have one question. My speaker has Zobel networks on the drivers. My speaker is a four way (mid bass drivers as we'll as midrange) so I have four caps and four resistors in my ... | |
| New Lampizator Level 4/ Version 4 DAC in the house Charles, Agear and I have fun with this one and we don't see it exactly alike based on experience. He is a great guy and we will continue to jab on this one topic. I greatly value and respect his opinion....usually:-) | |
| $5k DAC....Will A $500 cd Transport Get It Done? Sorry, but it is true. I have done and tried it all. Just look at my feedback and see! Ha! My computer based front end trumps every single high dollar, well reviewed, CD player and transport I have ever owned. Ya, I have owned many, many good ones... | |
| The future of preamps Active preamp or bust! It is key to a well put together system! |
