What, ain't they given you enough to do downtown!? You can see by my number of posts here that I'm just sittin' on my han... | |
| what is the best se tube amp Hey Pepler - Don't take me too seriously, it's just that the idea of the "best" anything is pretty silly on face. I think I got a pretty good idea of where you are coming from from your original post, and I didn't mean to imply it was a dumb quest... | |
| To Hot to Handle? I disagree with Unclejeff; once you hear tubes you won't want to go back to that scrap-metal SS crap ;-)........Anchor's away! Why not learn to make the heat your friend!? Get an amp with a cage, add a skillet and some eggs and sausage and breakfa... | |
| Your favorite recent discovery Jewel_hasan - Thanks for the recommendation of Emma Shaplin. I picked up Carmin Meo and really enjoy it! I would not have thought to mention it as being similar to Madredeus, though I do see where you're coming from. I'd say Madredeus' music is mo... | |
| what is the best se tube amp Oh brother....another, "..what is the BEST" query! It's like asking a bunch of contractors "What is the best hammer to buy?" Or in this case, since the options are far more broad in their potential for investment, asking a great variety of people,... | |
| HE2004 Pictures - Kudos to Albert Porter Sorry Gunbei, my wife would burn my underwear too.....except I'd probably be in'em when she lit'em up!!! MarcoPS Looks like Slappy was right - that thread has been terminated with extreme prejudice! | |
| Anyone familiar with Blue Jeans Cables? Make sure to get them about 1/2 meter longer than you need cause they'll shrink the first time you put'em in the wash!Marco | |
| HE2004 Pictures - Kudos to Albert Porter Damn fine job, as always Albert!! Thanks! Gotta ask, how do those Siemens horns sound?! Trelja? Maybe Christy was hiding behind them!Marco | |
| Opinions on the AirHead? I've ridden Airheads, but definitely prefer the newer Oilheads for all the power and refinements they have to offer. Marco | |
| Why tube amps are rated so low, still don't get it There are lots of good speakers that will give you very satisfying results with 50 watts of tube power in a moderately sized room. Though I'm not familiar with either of the two speakers you are considering either appear to be quite adequate. I'm ... | |
| Sytrofoam peanuts and EVIL and worthless When ordering high-end gear from your favorite dealer or Audiogon seller, always request the FLAVORED styrofoam peanuts if you plan on making a meal of them like my pal Gunbei. My personal favorite flavors are Chocolate, Strawberry and Poon-tang. ... | |
| which auduo research pre? LS2B. As soon as you can afford the upgrade, send it to Steve Huntley at Great Northern Sound and he'll kick it up a notch or two. Worth every penny, and I've compared my (former) GNS Modded LS2B side-by-side with a stock unit. The differences wer... | |
| What are your favorite monitors? Warren's coming down from a bad trip. Someone lent him a pair of tube monoblocks and tube pre and he's still reeling in the realization of what a huge mistake he's made in sticking with the SS rig of his. Probably he's just embarrassed and ashamed... | |
| How do you get to listen to high end speakers? Here's what you do Nm512 - Do you guys have Costco or maybe Sam's Club down there in Florida? Well, just pick out your favorite warehouse store like that and get yourself down there. Don't go on a weekend now or you'll be having to fend off the cr... | |
