La Scala vs Klipschorn
Afraid not Kubrickorange. Mike Sanders made only about four pairs of the 300B SET's that I own one of. Mike will be the first to tell you that he is not a big fan of the inherent harmonic distoritions imparted by the 300B/SET design (was it 3rd or... 
Is vinyl dead ?
You can't fool me! I've seen the headlines in the Enquirer and Sun Times: Vinyl spotted sunbathing in St. Tropez! Vinyl revisits home in Memphis! I'm Carrying Vinyl's Love-Child!! No, no, no...it's right there in black and white; vinyl is very muc... 
La Scala vs Klipschorn
Kubrickorange- I use a pair of Quicksilver mono 300B SET amps one of which you can see here , with a Cary SLP-50A Pre. Front end is a Muse Model 5 Transport and Model 2 Plus DAC.Marco 
La Scala vs Klipschorn
I've listened to both side by side in the same ($20K tube) system. As indicated, the K-horns were designed specifically to give optimum performance placed in the corners of the room. They are also quite larger in height and overall volume than the... 
I need a new Web Browser....now
I'll bite at that one One-Shot. Are you dissing Mac's? Have you used OSX (now a Unix-based system) and Safari?! DEAD stable. Simple, functional, well-designed interface with a brilliant array of user-friendly integral software. I'm clearly biased ... 
Quicksilver Mono 100's
Hey Peter- I think they must be running in Pentode if he's getting 100 watts per pair out of them. If you want to know more about the design try contacting Mike Sanders through his site. Phone is best, but you can also email. I've found Mike can b...

I think it's pretty safe to say that AOL is to ISP's as Bose is to High-End speakers. Marco 
I need a new Web Browser....now
Ed Sawyer's advice is spot-on. Safari is dead stable on Mac OSX ONLY. You cannot use it on any previous version. Mac OSX in it's current version 10.2.6 (NOT the earlier 10.1 versions) is an OUTSTANDING operating system but requires a bit of re-lea... 
Ok this will be a good thread.
Hey, did I miss the caning? Damn! I was too busy meditating on Rel's Haiku and pointing to the moon with my finger! Can you whack Asa a few more times so I can watch 6chac?Marco 
Did I make a mistake with my Nautilus 805?
If you absolutely, positively need to sink to their level, and feel compelled to execute some deep penetration with your Phillips, Flat-Head, or Torx (if you are from Europe), my vote would be for FedexGround....or UPS perhaps...and go for those C... 
Did I make a mistake with my Nautilus 805?
Naked listening?! You must have read my valuable contribution to the "Audio Jokes" thread! If you have any further tips to add to that advice ("The Ultimate Tweak"), do post them to that thread. The only blonde I recall sharing naked listening po... 
Did I make a mistake with my Nautilus 805?
Jeez guys, cut Audiobugged some slack, these are BIG BAD corporations he's proposing we screw! It's not like...well...Hey, Audiobugged, now that you mention it that amp you shipped me had two solder joints undone. I'm just shipping it back to you ... 
Ok this will be a good thread.
Ah, quite right Rel, I am not ready yet to invoke THE POWER OF CHIA. But I pray that one day I may be worthy and that great rabbit may grace my garden and provide my family with an abundance of sprouts for our sandwiches!I will meditate on your ha... 
Ok this will be a good thread.
Don't know about Nrchy, but I just wanna watch!!BEHOLD: THE POWER OF CHI!!!!!Marco 
Ok this will be a good thread.
Red Rover, Red Rover let GREEN come over!!!LOL Nrchy! I'm after you!Marco
