McAlister Audio Opinions Sought Look up the review I did on one of his amps (75 watt). Wonderful sounding amp at a steal of a price.Bill | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Thanks Sherod. I have emailed Joseph and will upgrade my dac or pre. Not sure which would have the most impact and am getting his opinion on which to start with.Bill | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Has anyone upgraded the 2.0n to the 2.1n and can you tell us what you found? I am not entirely sure the 2.1 is "better" sounding as it just may be different sounding? I don't know as I am thinking of doing the upgrade with the new caps, but have s... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I found NOS tubes really improved the overall sound of this preamp. I highly reccommend the Siemens tubes that Joseph places in the unit as an upgrade. I tried some nice Mullards and Amperex Bugle Boy (white lbl), but over time I found the Siemens... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier La45, I would love to know more about your amp. Who made it etc? It sounds very interesting to me. You're right about personal tastes and style. Funny thing is they change and someday I may be back to a SET amp. Don't know, but for now I am please... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I also made the switch to SET 2 years ago and came back to my current, more conventional, set up with the AH dac, pre and Belles Ref 350 amp. They drive a pair of Dali Grand full range speakers (90db effecient).I liked my SET system which consiste... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier Correction.Point #1 - Meant to say mate with a good TUBED preamp!Bill | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I would love AH to come out with an amp. Here is my two cents worth on the type of amp you should develop. It should be an SS amp and it should also be powerful. I would say 200 watts/channel as a minimum. Here are my reasons.- I find a good pream... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I have the remote version with all of the upgrades and here is what I have found. So many variables impact channel balance that moving my head an inch or two to the right or left is all that is needed to get to that SWEET SPOT of perfect channel b... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I 100% agree with Sherod and you should submit Joseph's best version of the preamp. As I have learned in sales we should always lead with the best product first. Folks need to know what Joseph is capable of - his best work.I would submit the phono... | |
Best Preamp = No Preamp? JmaldonadoYour comments are so off point. As I have said, I have owned the best high end has to offer. My reference systems consisted of gear all reviewers would say is not dry and lifeless. No flaws.A good preamp just sounded better then no pream... | |
Best Preamp = No Preamp? Undertow,Read my post again. You agree 100% with me and I with you.Amen.Bill | |
Best Preamp = No Preamp? A preamp is not needed if the goal is to simply have a way to control loudness/volume. However, if you want it to sound great, the best your system can sound, then to pick up that last 10 to whatever % of improvement you must have a good preamp. K... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier John, I have the remote version so yes you can order it that way right now ($300 option). Simply call Audio Horizons, or email, and ask if you can have metal or non-wood knobs.Sonic signature. Full bodied and loaded with texture. I would not say t... | |
Audio Horizons TP 2.0 Preamplifier I also own the 3.0 DAC and love it. To my ears it bested several well known and expensive players and DACs in my reference sysstem. One costs $8900 new and another $5000.I have had it over a year now and don't even consider trying another unit as ... |
