| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps Looking at the various posts on-line regarding NOS 6SN7s, I see lots of references to the various Sylvanias (GT, WGT, GTB) except the 6SN7GTAs. Are the GTAs somehow inferior to the others? | |
| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps A question for NOS tube users - Howoftendoyou change 6SN7s? I have a set coming this week. I'm just wondering if I'm starting a very expensive and unsustainable habit. | |
| Atma-Sphere MA-1 amps The MA-1s are teh best amps I have heard in my system. I did listen to many amps for a time. The next closest amplifier I have heard was the Pass Labs Aleph3. In may ways they share a lot in common - very highly resolving, musical without artifica... | |
| Directional interconnect cables How does a manufacturer decide directionality? If they get a spool of cable, terminate the ends the same, without doing anything differnet to either end, and the reason for this directionality is unknown, how do they make sure they've got it right? | |
| ANYONE heard the old 1957 ge 6550,s I just tried my first NOS tubes this morning. Frustrated that my thrown-together bedroom system sounded more musical than my big rig, I remembered I had bought a couple Sylvania 6SN7s at a flea market a couple years ago. When I had gotten home, I ... | |
| whats the best addition u have bought for system Going from an Acurus preamp to a Classe preamp. | |
| Directional interconnect cables I disagree! On my MIT cables, the arrows point to the end with the box, which goes downstream. My interconnects even have a marker that has an arrow that says signal flow, pointing in the direction of the arrow (which puts the network box downstre... | |
| Wierd Phono problem - what causes this? Thanks for your responses, all. I just gopt through playing around with it, and it seems to be a phono stage problem. Switching R & L cab;es coming from the record player into the phono stage didnt change anything, but switching the phono stag... | |
| Review: Verastarr Grand Illusion Series Power cord I see why you lack bottom octave response - you have no speakers!! Just kidding, curious what speakers you are using. Thanks for the review, looking forward to the LessLoss comparison. | |
| What comes after CD`s? Audiofeil - You stole my post!!!! I was going to say that! LOL | |
| what is the best amp you've ever heard Of all the amps I've had in my system, the AtmaSphere MA-1s have so far been the best. The JJ Electronics (the tube manufacturers) 828 is also very nice - not as dynamic, but sweeter. It's a shame this company doesn't get more attention. They were... | |
| Best bookshelf monitor under $1000 new or used. Depending on your priorities, the Spica TC50s (and maybe TC60s) are some of the best small inexpensive speakers out there. What they won't do is play at very high loevels, play with top-shelf dynamics, or give very deep bass or vary high highs. If... | |
| How do I turn off my Pass Labs X1? I don't think you're supposed to turn it off. I'm pretty sure the owners manual says to leave it on all the time. | |
| Manchester, NH There was a shop in southern NH that sponsored listening noights. It was supposed to be very open ended. Presumably, the point was to generate interest in the gear the shop sold, but I got the impression the nights' agendas were't too heavily dict... | |
| What is the difference in a 2 eye and 6 eye record Do they actually have 6 pictures of eyeballs on the label? That just sounds so strange. |
