Tube reliability in amps I am currently running the BC21/BC22 combo from Blue Circle and am very happy with it. Since I got this setup two months ago it's been turned on constantly. The sound is much better when I leave them on all the time. I really haven't worried much ... | |
integrated amp vs Pre&power amp combination. I owned a Simaudio Moon I-5 integrated for over a year. I've had an Electrocompaniet ECI-3 for the past three months. And, I'm currently running the Blue Circle BC21 preamp with the BC22 amp.In comparing these different setups, I would agree that ... | |
Burning question regarding upgrading paths Viggen, the exploits of Alexander The Great interest me immensely. I never realized such a connection existed to the Far East. Kind of a "6 degrees of Alexander of Macedonia"? It doesn't surprise me though, all these ideas seem to have universal a... | |
Burning question regarding upgrading paths Mes, in your response to question #2 [MU], are you making a reference to the Japanese concept of emptiness? If so, I will try to expand on that suggestion.Viggen, I think a viable path for you to take is the way of the Shugyosha. This would allow ... | |
What is the best digital cable? Dekay, great to see you in here again bud! How are things 45" north of me?Viggen, as Dekay mentioned I did have a problem with my Mapleshade Double Helix coax cable when I used it with my Simaudio Moon I-5. Whenever I turned my powered sub on/off ... | |
Subwoofer Question This is so funny, Luke. Although I started this thread some 6 months ago, I just tried something similar to what you described this past weekend and it worked well. My sub isn't halfway between my listening position and the mains [it's closer to t... | |
Five amps that you want to try at home? Unfortunately, I'd have to raise the level of my associated equipment to warrant demos of the above mentioned amps.I had a Simaudio Moon I-5 and sold it after comparing it to an Electrocompaniet ECI-3. I just bought a Blue Circle BC21 and am waiti... | |
Ideas for something to hold LPs ?? Yes, IKEA is also a very good option. Their furniture design is improving all the time, and they're very affordable.Abstract7, that's a very impressive looking system you have, and the LP rack is super cool. If it's not a problem I'd like to have ... | |
Ideas for something to hold LPs ?? Hi, I have a few suggestions for you.Currently I'm using a Wood Technology LP/laserdisc Base Module for my laserdiscs. It's cube shaped. The Wood Technology line includes stackable drawer and component modules. All require assembly, and they can b... | |
Speaker Stand Recommendation I believe Target is out of business. Audio Advisor liquidated all their Target racks and stands months ago. Still a few places sell them at decent discounts. Worth a look. | |
Which CD-player with Paradigm 40 and ATI 2505 Since you own an ATI 2505 I'm assuming you're running everything through an HT pre/pro? What is the sonic character of this processor?I own an ATI 1505, and at one time ran my CDP through it and the rest of my HT setup. My speakers are NHTs and th... | |
Speaker Stand Recommendation I'm currently using Lovan Imperial 2900 stands for my ProAc Tab 50 Sigs. They're 29" tall, and have a single slender stem support. Although the top plate is quite small the stands are very sturdy. I bought mine from Audio Advisor, but I'm not sure... | |
I need help with DTS Endo, it can be a pain getting all your settings right on your receiver to playback DTS the first few times. You'll eventually become fluent with all the steps involved, but if you have a learning remote that supports macros that could eliminate a... | |
Help My cables are too tight I almost had the same experience with my Harmonic Technology Pro Silway IIs. Luckily for me when I first got the cables the twist locks were on loose, so it was obvious that they were made for tightening after plugging them in. |
