| Where have all the protest songs gone? There's a difference b/ween then & now. Then, such songs were mainstream, hits. Now they're niche...After all, what IS there to complain about? OUR world is now perfect -- right? | |
| What is/are your the most favourite composer s ? Mahler, Brahms, and J S Bach, for emotional involvement. This is one difficult question, you know! | |
| Tube amps you have heard with Quad 989 Auditioned 989s (single pair) with the folowing gear thru a digital source (music: concerti & lieder only):* their own tube electronics* KR 8000 mono + KR pre/CAT Ultimate pre (preferred CAT)* Pathos mono + pathos pre/CAT Ult. pre (ditto CAT),... | |
| Do you leave your SS amp on all the time? Sean definitely gets (at least) the nomination for wattage waster for the millenium. Detlof is probably up there too.BTW, I leave my amps on all the time (class A) unless there's a storm or I'm away for days. It takes my system ~48 hours of operat... | |
| Men & Women & Bass Zaike -- T. Rex / M Bolan??? Is this historical knowledge OR "Geeez, some of us are showing our age around here":)? Judith -- tsk, tsk! I remember Cher when she was paired to a Son(n)y -- how's that for geriatric. And I saw D Oistrakh in concert a... | |
| okay, here we go again... You'll need serious driving (current, etc) abilities for the speakers; three products that come to mind are Symphonic Line rg10 (i heard this recently), YBA Passion integre, MAYBE the Pathos integrated (tube hybrid).I liked the sonic qualities of ... | |
| Duevel Loudspeakers I inadvertently deleted a private mail from a member, concerning Duevels...(too much spam these days). Sorry, but I didn't notice the name until it was too late -- please mail me again! HNYear! | |
| The best Carl Orff Carmina Burana? Eugen Jochum on DG. For many other versions, follow Tweeker's advice. | |
| Hi end audio who cares I've been lucky like Mikec; even recently, a musician was sitting mesmerized listening to LP after cd after LP... For many (myself included) hi-end is about the MUSIC the machines play -- NOT the machines as an end. If this were the case, we'd pro... | |
| Mark Levinson 27 Clipping Duane, the Duettas are a MUCH kinder load than the Scintilla... Duetta is a load; Scintilla is a short-circuit :).Merry Xmas everyone! | |
| Lindemann D680, how does it sound? Tekunda sells it in the US, apparently. He also posted a review some time ago -- you may want to look it up. I heard it at a show in a badly set-up system, playing inside a poor-sounding room so, let's say I didn't hear much of what it can do! | |
| Mark Levinson 27 Clipping Do NOT play loud. At best, you'll blow the fuses on the ML. HOWEVER, if you hit upon a very fast transient, more damage can occur -- as stated above -- to the ribbons on the Duetta (not easy to fix nowadays)... the fuse might not cut the signal of... | |
| BV Audio The perfect match for the Odyssey Stratos Why not write a review of this item? Happy holidays! | |
| What's My Problem? Or you hear the sonic effects of the volume pot on the passive, the impedance of which varies as you turn the volume up. I.e. a variation on what Sean suggested. | |
| Review: Meitner MTR-101 Amplifier It's good to know that we should "never buy any products you haven't listen to extensively".Since Tupperz has "listen to extensively" to the Meitner, I for one, would welcome more info on his experience with this product. Specific musical passages... |
