| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Ah thank you Detlof. . . I think I need to get my humor detector looked after. . . I've been laid off last Thursday and I'm taking things far too seriously. . . do you think that taking a micro Brilliant Pebble a day for 30 days might help my unch... | |
| need amplification help for sonus faber amati Dacapobone, as the Amati appear to belong to the type of speakers that are best driven with a modicum of stout control, you may also consider some higher end class D amplifiers. Am particularly fond and familiar with the Jeff Rowland 312. I use th... | |
| anyone use mcintosh & jeff rowland together? Tim1, if Mac has output impedance of 250Ohms, the 40KOhms input of 201 will accommodate it quite well.The 501 monos, Continuum 500, and 312 all contains the same underlying 1000ASP modules and yield the same nominal power of 500W with a max 45A cu... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? This old argument of analog vs digital is getting more and more far fetched as time passes. . . unfortunately our neurophysiology in its richness and complexity transcends the trite definitions of 'analog' and 'digital'. . . I just hope no one sta... | |
| anyone use mcintosh & jeff rowland together? Tim, the JRDG 201 monos appear to have an input impedance of 40KOhms balanced. This value is probably safe for most preamps. What is the balanced output impedance of your MCIntosh?You will find 201 specs at:http://jeffrowland.com/M201.htm | |
| anyone use mcintosh & jeff rowland together? Tim1, may I ask what Rowland amplifier you are interested in? In principle, as Rowland amps have high input impedance, they should not have problems with tube preamps. Some legacy Rowland models have dip switches in the back for setting input impe... | |
| What components are manufactured in the U.S.A.? Hi Ellery. . . definitely my post was not pointed at you. . . but at the juvenile trogs of the protectionist wing in the cloud out there. (grins!) G. | |
| Rowland preamps?????? Trank, VK52SE is the only BAT linestage I am familiar with. It sounded to me on the more classic side of tube sound, with bass extension that was warmer and a little less defined than Ref 3, and with treble that would get stressed on orchestral ff... | |
| lightweight power cable for a linn 1.1 cd player If the switching power supplies of Linn can create probs with some power cords, I suggest that in the Shunyata line you try out the VX variants rather than the alphas. . . they contain granules of a Ferro-Silicon compound that filters out high fre... | |
| Rowland preamps?????? Ferrari, have you ever heard the Coherence II? and if you have, could you comment on the differences between the 2 versions? G. | |
| Rowland preamps?????? By coincidence, I still have also an ARC LS2B, which I used for 10 years before getting the ARC Ref 3, and then the Capri after that. . . The LS2B is the most 'golden' sounding of the group. . . the Ref 3 is in the middle. . . and the Capri the mo... | |
| Rowland preamps?????? Trank, Capri is the current production model. . . which is the one I use in my own system. Capri is said to be more extended detailed, and linear than prior JRDG pres. Whether or not it yields less or greater musical 'magic' than older models, is ... | |
| What components are manufactured in the U.S.A.? Ellery, the problem is that the whole issue of "Made in XXX" is a false problem, and the folks in those economic fora should know better than to raise such red herrings. The national or State flag of the plant where the final screw of my JRDG 312 ... | |
| When is digital going to get the soul of music? Hmmm, music propagation at speed of light? Is that why I always thought of Toscanini performing Beethoven a little to fast? G. | |
| How do Digital Amps Mfrs. compare in sound? Coffeey, why don't you call Wired For Sound and let us all know. G. |
