| Anyone tried to get customer service from TALON?? I proudly own Talon Firebirds which had diamond tweeters installed in my own home earlier this year by Mike Farnsworth (who drove several hours in a snowstorm). If, as we have been informed, Mike still has a behind the scenes role in Talon, the co... | |
| Anyone experienced with Coincident 300B? I use an SIP-300 in my headphone system powering AKG K-1000s.My amp is dead quiet. Digital bias is finicky. I'm not frying my 300Bs yet, so I think I'm correctly interpreting the bouncing readout. Very nice sound. Some folks on these forums rank P... | |
| Fully Balanced pre to SET amp I know this does not answer your question but, if additonal cost is not an issue, you should consider an M-60 monoblock pair (w/Speltz Zeroformers if loudspeaker impedance presents a difficult load). This, of course, assumes your loudspeakers are ... | |

| Have you used a frequency/tone CD w/SPL meter ... Nice to read everyone's responses so far.Tbooe, the Rat Shack meter, IMO, is fine for this task. I have an analog one, as well as a calibrated digital unit from Monarch Instruments (Model 321 @ $259). Both read quite similarly head to head.Obvious... | |
| Best DVD for my System I recently bought a new Sony DVP-NS9100ES for $849 to replace a Sony 9000ES, and find the audio quality at least as good on DVD (w/Cary pre/pro and Bryston amp). Video quality using 480i component output is noticeably better, and I've yet to try i... | |
| Video lags behind audio - Help Thanks, Clb!Jgb | |
| Video lags behind audio - Help Thanks, guys, for all the suggestions. FWIW, the lag persists whether video goes first through the Cary or directly to the projector. The Cary has no "lip sync" adjustment. The Yamaha is a DLP, so perhaps it is the culprit.Got more work to do on t... | |
| Pre-amp recommendation: JC-1/Talon Raven C/ARC CD2 FWIW, I use a BC-3000 MKII GZPZ between an Ensemble Dirondo CDT > Audio Note 4.1x Sig DAC and Atma-Sphere M60 MKII.3s > Talon Firebirds in a fully balanced system. In an imperfect world, I feel absolutely no desire to change components. The ... | |
| Blue Circle BC3 vs BC21.1 You might also email Gilbert himself via his website link.He is truly one of the good guys in hi end audio manufacture. No one is better informed about the product differences than Gilbert. | |
| Tired of boring, polite, laid-back sound..... As an admittedly broad generalization, my experience is that a "lively, energized" sound is most reliably achieved in your price range using very efficient (93dB+ sens, MINIMUM impedance dip 6-7 ohms)loudspeakers with tube amplification of modest ... | |
| Anyone has tried the Tyler Acoustics Amp Stands? I have a pair of his loudspeaker stands which have noticeably improved the low frequency performance of my monitors, and which look great as well. | |

| Jolida and Seas Odin / Tyler Linbrook Sig Monitors I've been to Ty's factory and know he's used Jolida amps in the past. Give him a phone call and I'm sure he'll graciously answer any questions about the Linbrooks using Jolida gear upstream. He's the consummate gentleman. |
