| How long does Class A have? When it comes, and it likely will come, it will come in the form of a consumption tax on electricity. A sin tax if you will. Or maybe a luxury item consumption tax (similar to a gas-guzzler tax). Just a matter of time.I don't think that will happe... | |
| Point to Point vs Circuit Board You can spend well into six figures for an Audio Note amp, and it utilizes printed circuit boards. I don't think this was done to cut cost, as nothing else in their designs suggest a cost-cutting mentality. These amps sound fantastic.Even the mo... | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? If you combine a DHT preamp and a transparent SS amp you are most of the way towards a very good tube like sound. I've never owned a DHT tube preamp, but with the octal preamp and solid state amp I'm using now I tend to agree. | |
| What is wrong with my system? Others have already mentioned this but if that were my system the first thing I would do is try a tube preamp, see how that sounds and go from there.I would even go a step further and get an octal tube preamp with a tube rectifier. To my ears the ... | |
| Why do my new Transparent cables make my system sound muffled? All audio cables work same as long as the cables are made of reasonable good materials.You must not have paid attention, the Transparent cables have a network built into the cable. | |
| Are Lamm preamps hard on tubes? How would you know if they are true nos tubes or used that measure as nos? | |
| What is wrong with my system? the importance of room placement.I doubt room placement is going to fix this problem, it will help a little, but it’s still going to be bright and analytical. I had the same problem as the OP a few years ago, a krell amp and a solid state preamp i... | |
| Class A Power in A/B amplifiers? It's the amp you don't see coming that blindsides you. ;)That's just the honeymoon period. | |
| How are most audiophiles going from streamers to DACS Optical should be the best in theory, but it's probably the worst because there isn't a good interface available, as far as I know everything in audio is toshlink. | |
| Why the cost increase? It's not called global warming anymore, now it's climate change, due to the fact that for a few years temps went down so they changed it to climate change which encompasses everything. | |
| Has anyone ever used a company called vacuum tube values to purchase vacuum tubes? Sounds like the OP is buying tubes for audio research 610t monoblocks. | |
| Why the cost increase? There are plenty of platforms out there besides an audio site where they can feel right at home. They should try GETTR (set up by Rump's press secretary) for those that support right wing platforms.There are plenty of platforms out there for the l... | |
| Why the cost increase? We've got some really dangerous people lurking here with an agenda other than audio.Why would you say that? Just because people don't agree with you they are dangerous and have an agenda. | |
| So damn hard deciding which tube preamp to buy! Speakers 90%++ of the sound ina systemthe other less than 10% is split between DAC/CDP /Line Stage/ Amplificatrion.I had a setup I couldn't even listen to until I put a better preamp in the chain, now it's sounds incredible. | |
| Why the cost increase? Think Covid , worker shortage , driver shortage , import taxes ,forest fires , material shotages .Why do we have a worker shortage, and driver shortage? Where did all these workers and drivers go? |
