Bascom H. King Passed I enjoyed reading his gear reviews in the old Audio magazine. RIP BHK! | |
Pure Sound A10 or Solid-state of similar price? My experience of the A10 The Pure Sound has a high output impedance - like most tube amps. Something like 2 or more ohms! This makes the amp badly speaker dependant and problematic to match with. Changing the tubes will do nothing to fix this! Plus the low power means eas... | |
Pure Sound A10 or Solid-state of similar price? My experience of the A10 BTW I found the JBL 640's at my local Goodwill for $48! | |
Pure Sound A10 or Solid-state of similar price? My experience of the A10 I remarked to my cousin after listening to DSOTM via the JBL 640's/JVC RS-33 that "It was among the best sounds of that Pink Floyd recording I've ever heard!" I was trying to get him to buy the 640's. I stupidly sold them cheap ($200) to another f... | |
Pure Sound A10 or Solid-state of similar price? My experience of the A10 I have the JVC AX-01 in my amp collection. Only about 30wpc I guess. The circuit design is a scaled-down version of the JVC Super A amp ($1200). Also used in the JVC RS-33 receiver. I had that one in use too! I remember playing DSOTM (CD) with the... | |
Do these look similar? I’d bet good money that the internals are identical! Wilson ain't going to build plate amps when they can buy them from China for less than $150! | |
Do these look similar? Sherlock Holmes where are you? | |
Do these look similar? Back in '93 Theta put intact $300 DVD players into cases and sold them as $1200 high-end transports! And the audiophools at TAS loved them! | |
Those that upgraded from Tekton Ohm Walsh's. 3-D room-filling sound! | |
Moon AKA Simaudio announces new line of speakers. YAWN! | |
Cornwall IV – tube (amp) choice Dennis Had (Cary Audio) makes and sells some nice single-end 6L6-type amps under the Inspire name. Considering the high sensitivity of the Cornwall's the 6wpc of the Inspire amp would be a good match! | |
Cornwall IV – tube (amp) choice Will Vincent (autospec) has some nicely restored/modded Dynaco ST70 tube amps available here on Agon for $1600. A better value than any Primaluna! | |
Vintage JBL C40 placement question Upright is better! | |
Large room with low budget for speakers JBL 4367! As shown on the cover of Stereophile. $16500 | |
The past meets the future I see no end to the interest in collecting/playback of LPs. I bought a bunch on eBay this weekend - including a 70's German Atlantic Led Zeppelin I ($23.50). Today's new artists want their music released on LP. Pressing plants have backlogs of ord... |
