| External DAC and Theta Casablanca II Guess I should have read the other threads before responding. I see my subject was covered very well before my input. That will teach me...It's all in fun anyway. | |
| Parastat/Solution Yes-you're correct. Thanks for your input. | |
| External DAC and Theta Casablanca II I have an CB3 w/superior boards (best you could buy when I bought it). My DAC started missing the 1st second or two of most songs. Amplifier Technologies, who purchased Theta, kept it for weeks and weeks and returned it in the same condition. They... | |
| THETA CB3 XOVER I was going through my "Threads" and came upon yours. I have since purchased a Kora Hermes II DAC. Since then I'm running "Analog Direct Matrix." The sound is so much clearer and the volume is several db higher. This way, you can still use the sub... | |
| Grado or Shure Thanks for your responses-both times. I see the Shure gets all the votes. I have been contemplating this for a year. I had already ordered the higher end stylus, but began to 2nd guess myself. I only became aware of Gon about a year ago. Can't bel... | |
| Record-playing Rituals? I'm slowly getting back into vinyl after 20 years. I can't remember, if I ever knew, how to properly use a "Zerostat." Can anyone please remind me the correct procedure? | |
| Compatible stylus for a Shure V-15 series III Mofimadness: Thanks for the info-have a stylus on it's way. It's a pleasure to get good positive feedback from informative folks like you. I haven't used my turntable for years. Any suggestions on an economical tube phono stage? (I will use my tur... | |
| Tube Audio Design's Predac I have had two responses so far-both by direct e-mail. Please e-mail me direct if you don't want to "publish" your opinion. Very interested in opinions on the Tube Audio Design's "Predac." | |
| Kora Hermes II / Predac So, no one actually has a Predac? I'm trying to decide on the Kora Hermes II, or the Predac. Anyone have experience with both? I have logged several readers, but no opinions. Predac is fairly new-must not be many out there. | |
| External DAC and Theta Casablanca II Recently, I decided to introduce tubes into my 2 channel system to obtain a warmer sound. I finally decided to go with a tubed DAC to go in between my Theta transport and my Theta CB3. This way, I get to keep all the functions of the crossovers, b... | |
| Kora Hermes II / Predac Sorry guys-not balanced ins-only outs. | |
| Compatitble tube preamp w/Krell KMA-160's Thanks to all of you who answered. Have any of you had any experience with the YS brand Audio Experience A2 or A2-SE. It has 2-12AT7's & 1-5687WB in each channel. It has both single ended as well as balanced inputs/outputs. It doesn't match th... | |
| Compatitble tube preamp w/Krell KMA-160's I'm really surprised at all the responses I received on this question. It's good to see so many who are willing to commit to an opinion. | |
| Audio Experience A2E By the way, "Nelson" was very patient and informative. He e-mailed me direct and was very cordial. It's good to talk with someone who really believes in their product. I look forward to doing business with him if i make the plunge. | |
| Audio Experience A2E MghfThanks for getting back to me. I wanted to ask what kind of tubes you are running in your A2? How long do you let it warm up, guess you don't know how long it took to break-in, but have you noticed an improvement in performance since you've ha... |
