| Primaluna and Rogue Interesting thoughts, Viridian. Personally, I'm not as familiar with Quicksilver as I am with the other two companies. And while this is not directed at you, I learned about Rogue through a dealer recommendation and audition. Primaluna, I admitted... | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Well, I made the deal and the Nola's are now in my possession. I don't have them hooked up yet; I only tested them to make sure they work. Now my amp search goes into a higher gear, and the more I read is the more I know I want a tube preamp, such... | |
| Musical Fidelity A3cr Pre compared to Tubes No I haven't considered using a tube buffer. I never heard a system with one being used and no dealer has ever recommended to me such a product to improve the sound of my system. | |
| Musical Fidelity A3cr Pre compared to Tubes I have heard plenty of Rogue gear, but never with the Nolas. Also, I have heard plenty of Alon/Nola speakers, but never with tube gear, which they supposedly prefer according to many Alon/Nola owners. I guess that's why I'm interesting in seeing w... | |
| Musical Fidelity A3cr Pre compared to Tubes Lapierre, my speakers are Nola Viper IIa's, recently purchased on the 'gon. So many people have said that Nola/Alons sound best with tube gear, that I have been on this quest to find a decent tube preamp for not alot of money. My MF A3cr power amp... | |
| Musical Fidelity A3cr Pre compared to Tubes Rich: I agree, different tastes and setups for almost all of us here. But that is the nature of the hobby, no two people hear the same thing the same exact way. | |
| Primaluna and Rogue I like McCormack and McIntosh, but I have a Musical Fidelity A3cr that is currently feeding the two front channels of my home theater. I may switch the MF out to see how it does with the Nolas. I've also considered trying out Emotiva monoblocks to... | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Chrissain, that's good to know. but my budget will largely determine whether I go for a good used pair of M-150's or go with the Rogue Cronus. | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Reynolds, I am in the process of making a deal for some Nola Viper IIa's. I'm definitely going with a tube pre-amp, but I am still undecided on the amp. I'm thinking monoblocks, but I'm going back and forth between solid state and tubes. If I go t... | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Reynolds: Thats good info. What speakers are your Rogues pushing? | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Stoutblock, Sorry for not responding sooner, but I haven't logged on in quite some time. I have yet to make a purchase, but I am still in between rogue and Primaluna, and I am also still deciding whether to go all tube or tube pre/solid state powe... | |
| Stereophile Class Recommendations for Cambridge High B vs. low B makes sense to me, and Phil you are right, a lot of equipment is system dependant, unfortunately. So here's another question, is there such a thing as a component that will sound great regardless of what gear its matched with, and... | |
| Anybody used Nikko amps before? Wow, I thought I was the only one still holding on to Nikko gear! funknoobiest, that sounds like a fair price for all three pieces. The old Nikko gear is well-built, and was used by DJ's and the like during the 70's and 80's. I still have three pi... | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Oh yeah, tried and true. I am very familiar with the 3A. Auditioned it a couple of times way back when. Great Choice! | |
| Primaluna and Rogue Newbee, Thanks. I will look for some of those reviews. Orpheus, are you using the Pl3 pre-amp with the 6's? |
