| What new music did you get for Christmas? Pehare - Thanks for the Jesse Sykes heads-up (and for the second Fujindemon). I just happened to have a copy of "Oh Girl" that a friend had given me (probably for the very reason you'd recomended her) that was sitting in my small stack of things t... | |
| "...Pet Free..." what was even better was that another guy(i think jax)was squeezin his cat trying to get it to puke on his preamp for the tweek!Hey, no cats in this house to yak on my pre! Diesel would love to 'squeeze one out' if he could only get his paws on on... | |
| tube watts vs solid state watts You boys are filthy, filthy, filthy! Minds in the gutter at all times eh? The reference was to the movie "Spinal Tap"...I guess no one's seen it!? Y'all should be ashamed. This is a public forum after all!Marco | |
| pet's & xmas LOVE American Bulldogs Mike! We have a 115 lb Bullmastiff named Diesel. Love the bowling ball idea - he's already trashed a basketball, which was his favorite toy for a while. We got him the usual treats - he's hard to shop for since he already ea... | |
| tube watts vs solid state watts My tube amp goes to "11"!!!Marco | |
| tube watts vs solid state watts I'd agree that tubes seem to put out more power than SS given the same output rating. But I think this has something to do with the way tubes clip and distort vs. the way SS clips and distorts. I think the latter is much more difficult to endure, ... | |
| Modwright SWL 9.0SE -vs- Aesthetix Calypso? Reb1208 - I too would be curious to hear what the rest of your system is. Your comments are surprising to me. I bought one of Dan's prototypes for the current production preamp. From what I understand from the few comments I've read from folks who... | |
| What headphone amp to buy-Sennheiser HD 600? I do like Headfi.org as a resource too. My only reservation about it, and this is a gross generalization (I hope), but in reading many posts there it seems to be a much younger crowd, and or a crowd that has different musical tastes than my own. I... | |
| Need Good Service Technician to Fix Noisy ARC 6B You may check with Steve Huntley of Great Northern Sound. They do excellent mods to ARC gear (Steve used to work for ARC). Don't know about repairs, but their Standard upgrade is around $750, and would be money better spent than a simple repair, i... | |
| What headphone amp to buy-Sennheiser HD 600? Just to add a bit to the input above: I have a Portal Panache, and a Berning Micro-Zotl. I don't use your cans, but a pair of Sony MD3000's. The difference between the two amps is not subtle, and though the Panache has a decent headphone section f... | |
| Why so many amplifiers for sale? When I call myself, the line is always busy.Keep that up and you'll grow hair on your palms and go blind!Marco | |
| Why so many amplifiers for sale? You can keep Stan, that'd be one too many trips to the dump for me, and I don't even know if they'd take him there. You might try Hazmat!Marco | |
| Modwright SWL 9.0SE -vs- Aesthetix Calypso? Write to member Tvad...I'm pretty sure he put the Modwright up against some pretty stiff competition recently. I don't know if the Aesthetix was the challenger...Marco | |
| Why so many amplifiers for sale? You've heard of hooking up an attenuator and going straight to the amp...well now folks are mainlining the source straight into their coffee making machines! Some fool gave them the idea when he tried premium power cords on his machine, and now he... |
