| BEST tubes Pro-ject tube box SE II sumiko 12ax7 So how did the Sylvainia 5751 grey work? Did you get a lower output? When i emailed the Pro-ject tech he had no idea if they would work and did reccomend them. | |
| Music Hall 25.2 or Jolida 102b? I jumped into tubes after 16 years with a cheap Yamaha Rcvr. Got a wild hair and just did it, based partly on posts by Rich and others. Has it been smooth sailing yes had a small tube problem but minor (dont use JJ power tubes in the Primaluna).Bu... | |
| Safe Shipping, Fact or Fiction Take picutres of the box before you open it. That made a big difference when UPS tried to deny the seller's claim for a broken CDP. As soon as I sent the pics to UPS the paid off. | |
| Music Hall 25.2 or Jolida 102b? Primaluna PL2 or PL1 used for around $900. I have the MHall CD25.2 great palyer for the price. | |
| Onix SP3 or Jolida 102b with Von Schweikert VR1's Take a look at the Primaluna PL1 or PL2. If you search systems i think there are a few 'goners using this combo. | |
| I Feel Overwhelmed....Please Help If you go tubes look at a good used Primaluna PL 1or 2. Great bang for the buck (around $900 used) easy to use very nice sounding and you can vary the tubes easily. | |
| Phono Pre Selection Advise look for a used Parasound Zphono. works for mm and mc. quiet around $100 used. | |
| Denver record store s with Classical vinyl? Check out Twist and Shout on East Colfax next to the Tattered Cover bookstore roughly Colfax and York. I have not really looked at their classical stuff but the have a very big selection of vinyl of all kinds and nice prices. | |
| Best sounding CD player for under $500? Take a look at the Music Hall CD25.2. Very nice sounding CDP for around 440$ new. Seem them and the earlier version used for around 200-300 here. | |
| best inexpensive tube integrated I have had my Primaluna PL2 for about a year and it is wonderful and easy to listen to. I ran with KT88's for about 8-9 months but just switched to EL34's. The nice thing about this amp is its can take a lot of different tubes and it is auto bias.... | |
| Small room, "budget priced" speaker advice, please Triangle Comete Es should sound pretty good. | |

| Salamander racks? I own an archetype 5 shelf unit and they do look good they are not too big but they are not the most solid units. I have tightened the nuts on these things and you still get some sway. It needs some cross bracing to be really solid. That said I ha... | |
| Speakers to match PrimaLuna Prologue 2 Very happy with my triangle cometes. They work very well and don't take a lot of power. Nice bass for monitors. | |
| Integrated amps on a 1,000 dollar budget I used Primaluna PL2 tube integrated with the same speakers and had great results. They have the power to move the 602's and the sound was nice and warm. They are showing up used here for $850-1000. |
