| Looking for nearfield passive speakers that are warm and rich @smodtactical At that price I would jump on the Folia's and see what you think. The P3's will set you back at least three times the price. If you haven't you might want to look at the Reynaud page on Bob Neill's Amherst Audio where Bob gi... | |
| Looking for nearfield passive speakers that are warm and rich @smodtactical Yes a lot more. | |
| Looking for nearfield passive speakers that are warm and rich The Folia Jubilee is a good choice as would be the Bliss Jubilee if you have the room. I own both the Bliss and Abscisse Jubilee models. Have owned six JMR models total over the last twenty years. I also own a pair of Harbeth C7's which would be t... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread I think the dual gain controls are a big advantage and wish mine had them. The fixed 18db gain on the newer models gain can be a bit much with many amplifiers if using higher efficiency speakers. In the combination I use mine in the AVA amp has ... | |
| Help me solve another speaker hum thread :) Check the routing and connections of the cables as @oldhvymec said and then pull and re-seat all the tubes. | |
| Supratek Owners Thread @aldnorab Congrats on your purchase. Of the two that just sold did you buy the black face unit or the older silver face unit with the gain controls? | |

| Supratek Owners Thread @highstream Gene, how much longer have you got to wait yet. Just pulled the trigger so I've got a while to go but will just use the Sachs in that system in the meantime. | |
| Supratek Owners Thread @aldnorab Supratek preamps are certainly not thin or analytical and you can make minor adjustments to then tone by changing the two 6SN7 tubes and upgrading the supplied rectifier tube depending on what he is using these days. The Cabernet will ... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread @aldnorab Your best bet for ordering a Chardonnay is to contact Mick directly through the e-mail address listed on the website. Due to the time difference he will get back to you within 24 hrs. and you can discuss your purchase directly. I ju... | |
| Power Cable Suggestions Needed Your better bet is to try the Iso-Acoustic Pucks instead of swapping power cables. | |
| Totally overwhelmed (speakers under $5k) The Fritz Carrera's will work fine in that room as your obviously not going to sit 24 feet away. He also makes the same basic speaker with the Scan Speak Illuminator tweeter instead of the Be tweeter. | |
| Who Offers a Highly Musical Preamp using a 6SN7 tube and a remote? @hilde45 I've owned three 6SN7 based preamps in the last five years. The Modwright LS-100, the current Don Sachs Model 2 and the current Supratek Chardonnay. Still have the Sachs and the Supratek. From purely a sound and musical involvement pe... | |
| Anyone own Linear Tube Audio Amps? Might want to look into the Rogers integrated tube amps. |
