| How do the Von Schweikert VR-2's handle loud rock? well I have the Vr-4. With rogue 120 running in triode 70 watts. On a good compressed analog recording they can rattle your brains. On wide dynamic digitail recordings they need more power say around 250 at least. The von schweikerts are Great, th... | |
| Impedance mismatches between pre and amp do this? Well ive purchased the alpha sterling also. These are very fast cables. The sound horrable on my tube amped system. Good highs colored mids and no bass. These are great cables best for overly warm systems. im selling these suckers. My system must ... | |
| Rogue 120 Its 2000.00 to upgrade to the 150. Way too much. They just run the tubes harder. anyway Mine sounds good in the triode mode on vr-4. Ultralinear dosent do it for me here. Tungram 12ax7 are nice for it also. | |

| Electrical question re dedicated line Again deathgrip oulets. All amps on single phase preamps ect on other phase. If you need 220 you will need both phased obviouly. Run external ground rod for the ground prong 3rd wire. You will notice darker background in sound if equipment permits | |
| Rogue 120 Yes I was thinking about getting the unit upgraded to the newer 150.. I dont know the prices im on a very strict budjet thats why I had to go for the stock 120. Any more comments? | |

| Audible Illusions vs. Audio Research? Well Ive owned audio reserach LsI and Ls2Bmk2. Also Audible illusions M3. The audible illusions dosent have balanced output. No Big Deal Its not true balanced from in to out anyway.( AR ). Also the m3 dosnt invert phase which means you need to hoo... | |
| Krell Ksa power amps Oh and my I say that when that came back fron the factory it was pristine sounding. When I sent it in it was starting to leak a bit of DC at turn off wouldnt turn off cleanly like new It would kind of thump.When It was returned it was like Brand n... | |
| Electrical question re dedicated line Run a dual phase line. run 1 phase to the amp/amps. The other phase to frontend preamp,source ect. For better measure I run a seprate ground to a 8ft ground rod to the green terminal on the outlets.I make sure that only 1 componant is grounded to ... | |
| Crown SA2 Amp Hello. Ive owned sa-2 and many other crown amps including delta omega 2000 . Was wondering what you paid for it. In that amps time it was great. Consturuction is good the output moduals snap in and out. Amp has power to spare good lowend highs ten... | |
| Krell --- Are the Newer designs better? Had 3 ksa250's and a 300S loved them all id take the 300s for most demanding speakers and the 250 for brite speakers. These are nice amps. Not as dynamic in the highs as some which can be a godsend. The ksa amps are requiring cap replacements now ... |
