| Moving to France The OP posts a question about voltage, and some with no answer to the question simply take it as an opportunity to denigrate the country or people.They need to think hard about who they are and why they choose to act that way. They demean themselv... | |
| Moving to France Have a great time over there! Wonderful country, people, culture. | |
| Best options for active speakers $4k or below? I've heard the active KEF LS50's are even better than the passive. | |

| Solitary listener @rvpiano I’ve built my system in the last 6 months and have been dying to share it with all the members of the Colorado Audio Society (the RMAF organizers) and my friends. It helps to share descriptions and trade stories with folks on audio fora a... | |
| Adding a SS amp as a 2nd amp for my tube rig has been a plus I considered this amp switch, at some point: https://sites.google.com/view/pine-tree-audio/devices/transparent-selector | |
| Adding a SS amp as a 2nd amp for my tube rig has been a plus @jtcf Yes, synergy is the x factor here.

| Adding a SS amp as a 2nd amp for my tube rig has been a plus @rosco88 Very nice gear you have. I bought some nice Valvo AT7's from the 1960s for my pre and some Genelex GL 77's for my tube amp; nicer, mellower now, having replaced the stock JJ's which were in both units (AT7's and KT88s) at purchase.

| Neutral Sounding Tube Amps - what gives? I'm not sure why people feel content to talk about how "tube amps" sound because when you change the *tubes* a helluva lot can change. | |
| Speaker Choices For My System OP -- I love your list. From that list, I'd be most curious about the Spendors, because I've heard speakers in that line and like them. Have heard good things about the Joseph. I've been turned off by the B&W line, but have not heard the bette... | |
| Adding a SS amp as a 2nd amp for my tube rig has been a plus @tonnesen I'd like to try that Pass amp. Did you do a deHavilland/Pass combo? Any reactions?@oldhyvy You are way out of my league! Mad skills! I suppose you play the Who's Live at Leeds at the original volume? | |
