| Alon/Nola sound According to the DVM, the midrange driver is fine. So, now that means going inside the speaker. Any ideas anyone? | |
| Alon/Nola sound At any rate, I'm still looking for help with getting into this cabinet. Any thoughts out there, please let me know. Thanks. | |
| Alon/Nola sound Tmsorosk, you won't get any flack from me. While I have been hooked on the Alon/Nola sound ever since I auditioned the original I's and II's back in the early 90's, I realize their cost to performance ratio is nowhere near what it used to be. And ... | |
| Alon/Nola sound Now that my room is done, and the system is almost completely set up,I need to check one of my midrange drivers. Thanks to Nmusician, I will obtain a voltmeter to test if the midrange driver is working.If the driver is not working, off to Miller S... | |

| HT Bypass necessary? Thanks for the responses. So in connecting it in the manner described above, is the pre-pro going to have full volume control of the left and right fronts?I should also mention that the pre has a processor loop, but i don't know if that is somethi... | |
| How good is Emotiva 2 channel gear?? I compared my upa-1 monoblocks to both my musical fidelity a300 integrated and my a3cr power amp, and in both scenarios, I found the UPA-1's to be smoother in presentation, making the midrange more enjoyable. The UPA's had more air in the highs, w... | |
| How good is Emotiva 2 channel gear?? 02-21-11: Robbob"Entry level gear is not Emotiva. Even with their low prices a good system based on Emotiva amps and processors will cost more than anything "entry level."Entry level is a Sony, Denon or Onkyo receiver powering some Mirage speakers... | |

| Nola Blue Thunder Cables I picked some up used from someone from another forum for about $230. I tested them to make sure they worked, but have yet to sit down for some real listening. I will post my findings when I get a chance. | |
| Solid State to Tubes and Back Again Louisgiants, all true observations. Im not looking to break the bank either. Quicksilver makes a nice pre, as do the other companies you listed.Thanks for sharing, Ferrari. So you were doing this audio thing when tubes were all there was. I can se... | |
| Solid State to Tubes and Back Again Inna: That's an interesting point. Some cheaper tube gear probably isn't worth it if its unreliable or doesn't sound as good at its more expensive bretheren.Markwatkiss: That is the sometimes frustrating obession of this hobby. But its fun, isnt' ... | |
| Solid State to Tubes and Back Again "as to switching from solid state to tubes and back to solid state, i think it's like getting married three times."Ouch! I sure hope not. Mustang Cobra, VERY HOT!!I guess all one can do is audition what you think you will like in order to get what... | |
| Solid State to Tubes and Back Again Virdian, are you serious?!! Your amps can generate enough heat to replace your home's heating system?Schipo, good point, and funny too!! A hot car beats a good tube amp for me any day!!!BWP, SamuJohn, I agree with both of your comments. wanting to... | |
| Manley Shrimp and Rogue Perseus Thanks for your response. That helps a lot. I haven't heard the Dehavilland, and its been a long time since I heard the Modulus, but your comments just confirm how good the Modulus, even when compared to todays offerings.Thanks again. |
