| What Solid State Pre-Amp compares to ARC LS-26 I meant to state the Bel Canto Pre 3. I have been using one for several months while my tube preamp is being built. I never expected it to sound this great. Very special and a steal for the price. | |
| What Solid State Pre-Amp compares to ARC LS-26 Ok, the Bel Canto Pre can be had for $950 - $1100 used and actually sounds better to my ears. This is an amazing preamp for $1000 used and has all you are asking for. | |

| Which speaker has the biggest sound stage? Sounlab ESL speakers have a very large stage and sound quite live and awesome.Wall of natural sound that is so wondeful. | |
| Is this enough power? That does help and the amp will work. I still caution you that more watts would help your system reach it's full potential.This will be true on all classical recordings that happen to have low output levels. Your room is large with the kitchen fig... | |
| Is this enough power? My experience has shown that 30 watts may not be enough if you listen to piano or classical as the amp will most likely clip. I consider moderate levels to be up to 85 - 87db or so. Problem is you need headroom my friend and I really think your go... | |

| Tube Research Labs Latest Dude Preamp Agear is spot on to call Paul about those tubes and the bias. Yo2tup, did you just get your Dude or have you been a Dude owner for a longer time? | |
| Velodyne DD Plus: New King of the Jungle? Sonicray.I have mine set up in the very same manner. Mine kicks in at 50 htz. My room is about the same size as yours. | |

| Would this room work? Great idea Peter. If the walls are 6 feet high instead of 4, that would be a huge plus! | |
| Would this room work? Well if you bring your speakers into the room about 5 feet from the wall behind them and sit 8 feet back from the front plane of the speaker that leaves you about 3-4 feet behind your listening position. Separate your speakers about 8 feet leaving... | |
| Review: Tube Research Labs Dude Tube preamp Vett93,My new dude is being custom built to drive my SS amp with a low input imped of 20K ohms.Paul is still building the Dude with the same circuit, wire, caps and such. The changes made on the newer Dude will not change the sound to any real ext... |
