| Groove Tube EL34LS Find out who makes groove tubes. For some reason, I THINK they are made by JJ. A review I read somewhere that I can barely remember. I don't want to start false rumors, but check it out, in case they are the same thing. | |
| Theta Generation VIII & Wadia 270? Although I haven't heard it, I have read the Theta Jitter Jail card is supposed to make the transport irrelevant. Has anyone tried different transports with this card installed? (I thought there was a review that confirmed this but very vague memo... | |
| How Good Can Digital Get? Speed - analogue went through format changes, too. Cylindrical discs, 78, 45, 33, stereo, each requiring new players to hear the improvement, or even to play. In most cases, the new players would accomodate the old formats. The thing that I worry ... | |
| Anybody blow a ceramic woofer with an OTL amp? When you say "pop (and really violently)...", do you mean the glass bottle actually explodes, sneding glass flying everywhere? | |
| Anybody blow a ceramic woofer with an OTL amp? I think he means how frequently it occurs.(not the frequency of the signal that did the damage.) | |
| Exposed metal on cable ends I think they are all connected to the chassis anyway | |
| Anybody else bothered by $8call.00 They are often dealers selling new stuff below MSRP. Supposedly, they can't print the price because the other dealers would complain to the manufacturer(as if they all don't know what's going on). I've been calling one of these guys for over a mon... | |
| Listening to my HD650's, a sobering experience... One of the most humbling experiences for me is going into Barnes and Noble and listening to their cheap headphones (and probably lo-res computer format over an op-amp) to check out new music. While they have many shortcomings, and my main system b... | |
| subs for music Some subs (incl.REL) run their inputs off the speaker wires, so you would be connecting wires from the speakers to the sub. The sub has a very high impedance, so isn't drawing power away from the speakers, but is reading the voltage signal going i... | |
| Guilty Pleasures? DREAD ZEPPELIN!!! Yee-ha, I thought I was the only one who'd ever heard of them! I can see how it all happened. A bunch of musicians sitting around and someone says Black Dog, someone says Hound Dog, someonme says Heartbreaker, someone says Heartb... | |
| Is This The Time To Buy A New TV?... Now might be the time to buy CRT, if that is what you want. It seems like it is a mature technology, capable of provinding state of the art picture. My understanding is that the manufacturers aren't putting a whole lot of investment into CRT any m... | |
| AtmaSphere vs. VTL Oh yeah...Power amplifier for Talon Audio Hawks, either Atma MA1 or VTL ST150. Thanks. | |
| There's a sucker born every minute That reminds me of another one - "Brand B" room correction system demo. There are 2 boxes mounted on a wall with little cube speakers inside. One is plexiglass, the other is covered in burlap. The demo starts out with the plexi box harsh and scree... | |
| Anyone hear the McIntosh MC275 mkIV I listened to it very briefly. Very smooth and grain free, but seemed to spotlight the upper mids a bit. Very brief demo with Magnepan 1.6 QR, VTL 7.5, Levionson 390. | |
| Anybody have opinions on supertweeters????? One thing I was wondering was is if it makes sense to reproduce sounds over 20 kHz if you're listening to Red Book. Even if the sounds in the inaudible range can modulate the audible sounds (audibly) in real life, it is my understanding thatred bo... |
