My “Dream” system needs a preamp Disregard my prior post. I am awaiting my Sachs preamp the prior post is my Schilling the Truth preamp commentary. Sorry for the heat lagged post. | |
My “Dream” system needs a preamp Just put a Sach's preamp into my exercise room system last note. Holy smokes, it is a terrific preamp. Clean, clear, spacious with nary a hint of solid state etch or grain. It's a great preamp period. For the money, it is stupid good. | |
DAC plus Preamp or DAC-Preamp or DAC-Volume Control ? Mine just arrived. I put it in my second system and was stunned at the tonal purity, visceral impact, clarity and soundstage. I typically listen to tube preamps. This unit does not sound hardly anything like solid state. Sounds a bit like a we... | |
PS Audio PCA-2 Preamplifier - Characteristics? I have a PCA 2 preamp modified by Doug Jessie in my exercise room two channel system. Using molded Ampzilla 300 wpc monoblock amps, Silverline speakers, a modded Aurilac Vega dac and modded Oppo disc player.The PCA 2 preamp is a stellar performe... | |

Tube Gear Restoration Thanks! | |
don sach's custom kt88 tube amp Does this amp have enough power to effectively drive Magnepan 1.7 speakers run with dual subwoofers? | |
Who makes budget speaker cables which are truly “good” or “exceptional” in quality? Tunis' silver plated copper cables. They sell here on Audiogon, are very reasonable pricewise and sound superb. | |
Magnepan Crossover Mod Approach? Josh - I have not considered moving up to the 3.6 or 3.7; I can certainly go and listen to them at a local dealer near me and hear the latest model. Thanks for the suggestion. | |
Magnepan Crossover Mod Approach? There is nothing that I really dislike about the speakers. I had my boehringer outboard x-over rebuilt for my emerald physic CS 3 speakers and they improved considerably. I am pursuing a bit more top end extension and transparency; the mod can be ... | |
Magnepan Crossover Mod Approach? Thanks for your responses, cautions, and emails. The input is very much appreciated. | |
Emerald Physics 2.3 or Magnepan I have had the CS 2's and currently have the CS 3's; also run the magnepan 1.7's on my reference system with a 140 wpc tube amp (Canary). Both the CS 3's and the 1.7's are run with subwoofers. In that configuration, the 1.7's are giant killers for... | |
Know anything about the BSG Technologies QOL? This piece of equipment certainly has piqued my interest. I have a very resolving, highly musical, clean sounding system with great detail and imaging: Canary monoblock tube amps 140 wpc, Canary monoblock tube pre-amps, Magnepan 1.7 speakers, Zent... | |
Best speakers in the 3000 -5000 range Emerald Physic CS-3's once fully broken in with an upgraded Boehringer cross-over. Doug Jessie @ Asi_Teknology rebuilt mine. Holy smokes these speakers are now absolutely phenomenal. One caveat is that I run them with a subwoofer. The upgrade and ... | |
Jw Signature Interconnects Glad to hear that you had a similar experience as I have with these cables. They do not appear to have a cult following on Audiogon but they sure deserve one given their performance. It may be that given their modest cost that it is hard for hardc... |
