| Preamp for Job 225 I use the W4S STP/SE and the pairing sounds great! BTW, the input impedance is 61k, so I would not characterize it as "low". Also, I am seriously thinking about going for the Stage 2 upgrade. | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? The Job is not lean...if one detects any leanness, then it is likely an up stream component. It is however very transparent.Interesting how some people have opinions about a product that they have never heard and also like to provide the (abbrevia... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? I use that combination and it sounds great! | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? I have no idea what the "quoted 9 watt amp" was, nor have I ever listened to the Nines with anything less than a 55 watt tube amp, that weighed 65 lbs. I also used a 100 watt hybrid amp for a while and the Job was simply better in vitually every p... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Hi, I'm using the JOB to power Devore Nines and it is the most dynamic and best bass that I have heard from these speakers! Great soundstaging and imaging as well. I can imagine that paired with the Orangutans, these qualities would be even greate... | |
| Anyone have/ordered the Job 225? Hi,I'm using the W4S STP-SE with the Job 225 and it is a great sounding combo! I may also try the Stage 1 upgrade next year.Glenn | |
| PC for a Running Springs Haley The ESP reference should work well as I had one on my Jaco, but switched to another cord to eliminate DC what was causing hum in my amp. | |
| Amp for Dali Hellicon 400 mk2 I am using a Sanders ESL 300 MkII amp to drive my Helicon 400s. It is an excellent sounding amp with plenty of power and bass control! The speakers also respond readily to cable and preamp changes. I am also using a Dodd battery preamp with NOS tu... | |
| Audience Au-24 vs. Enhanced version same cable I have had both the standard and the new "e" version ICs at different times. The "e" sounds more open and focused and perhaps a bit faster (transients) sounding. It is a very good sounding cable, but I will probably be selling mine since I have ma... | |
| Sanders ESL Power Amp & Mono blocks I have been using the Sanders ESL amp for several months and I just love it! It sounds very neutral and has great control over my Dali Helicon 400 speakers. I initially used it with a Rowland Synergy IIi, which is a very nice combination. I now us... | |
| Sacrilege Going from Tubes back to Solid State Check out the Butler Audio 2250. It's a hybrid with no bias adjusting to mess with and has plenty of power. Brand new they are $3300 and you get a 30 day trial! | |
| Tube amp with SS like bass I am using the Butler 2250 on Dali Helicon 400s and find the bass to be very tight and fast. As far as I know the amp is under only $2k used. | |
| Preamp recommendations for a Butler TBD2250? I use the JR Synergy IIi and that combo works very well. | |
| Butler TDB 2250 Amplifier Questions Hi,I own the Butler 2250 and I (and my wife) can easily discern differences in cables, power cords, power conditioners and recordings! It is quite a fine sounding amp. The only caveat I recall is that it requires a preamp (if you use one of course... | |
| Anyone tried Oritek X-1 cables? Yup! I have the X-1s and now own a pair of X-2s between preamp and amp. The X-1s are an amazing value and are very, very good. The X-2 kicks it up another notch or two at least, but at a much higher cost. I have used both the X-1 and X-1B.I have a... |
