| What are/were the best sounding cheap components you have ever had? "Cheap" is a relative term. What I now see as cheap I probably didn’t then. I am sure that many here would consider the stuff I now see in my system as higher dollar to be "cheap." But the first pair of 2 way speakers I bought back in ’93 or ’94... | |
| WILL IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE? @spatialking +10. If you have gone from SS to Tube, what did you buy? What was the most striking difference out of the box and 300 hours in? Did you keep the speakers you had? Back in the prehistoric days of Dolby Prologic, I became more &a... | |
| We Can Make Classic Cars Outperform Today's "SuperCars": Why Not Vintage Audio? A stock-appearing early Nova showed up at our local track (St. Louis area). 2-tone, white over black, baby moons. Granite City? | |
| Jumped the shark. ??? Like I said you are a fine human being @immatthewj. Time to move a long. No time to waste on the likes of you. @jerryg123 , does this mean that you won't be sending me any more obscene DMs? | |
| I think I just smoked my Amp @rfnoise good to read a happy ending! | |
| Amps for B&W 805 Diamond: Rogue Audio or Krell, Pass labs, ML, Accuphase Yeah, I know the MA252 is very good but it is only 100W. Is it enough for 805 Diamond? Normally I see people use 150W or more amplifier? @truongv0ky I own a pair of the way earlier B&W 805 Matrix speakers, and I do not know if they are a si... | |
| Jumped the shark. ??? @immatthewj you are a real fine human being. Thanks, @jerryg123 , judging from the obscene emails that you used to send me, I thought that you probably felt that way. | |
| Jumped the shark. ??? Just a direct quote from you is all that was. But maybe that was the "stroke" talking. | |

| A first All I can say is time has changed. Back in the 70's, going to friends' houses to listen to their sound systems and album collections was a pretty common social event. Ah yes, @xcool , that does bring back the memories. We'd get together aft... | |
| Yep much to do about nothing. Fear brains. But no, you go on arguing with me, and not understanding about what i speak about... If your rambling nearly incomprehensible diatribes say something is so, I guess it must be so. | |
| Has anyone compared Rogue RP-7 to Cary SLP05 and / or Audio Research Ref 5se? Thanks @garyalex and @ghdprentice . That does sound like an interesting read and that's also interesting about the KT88/6550 swap. A while back ago I retubed my v12 via Jim McShane. He steered me away from KT77s. | |
| Yep much to do about nothing. Fear brains. Trump/Biden is NOT A CHOICE..... if you can't see a clear difference/choice, you are blind or wearing blinders. | |
| Has anyone compared Rogue RP-7 to Cary SLP05 and / or Audio Research Ref 5se? I just did a quick search & I guess that is a nonfictional work? Did Hongo get into which tubes it was that he used that screwed his amp up? |
