| Tube amplifiers and interstage transformers My experience is similar to Charles1dad's, in that my favorites are SET amps, especially 300B SETs. I've heard superb SETS with interstage transformer, and superb SETs with interstage cap. | |
| How is/was your Satori speaker cable? I love it. But beware of counterfeits. | |
| Best single-malt Scotch... 1914 Sheep Dip VSOP | |
| Do expensive cables/wires REALLY make a difference Agree with Buconero117 that materials make the difference, e.g., OCC silver, OCC copper, teflon dielectric, connectors of OCC copper, silver-plated, gold-plated. These features cost more. | |
| Integrated Amp with HT by-pass Cary SLI-80 | |
| Best bookshelf speakers??? I second the thought of Tpreaves. MP3 isn't hi-fi quality. | |
| Recommendations for Amp/speaker combo for $10,000 Tannoy DC10T floorstanding speakers with 300B SET amp, e.g., Wavelength Cardinal. Recommend you buy the speakers new or demo, and look for a used pair of Cardinal X2 monoblocks. | |
| Cables that are more enhanced than Acoustic Zen Recommend you contact Acoustic Zen. The owner will separate and reterminate your shotgun bi-wires -- make them usable for biamping. He reterminated mine for a nominal fee. | |
| Tannoy Westminister Royal SE Pre-amp Preference? Wylmars, please note that it's Canary C900, not Cary. | |
| Stick a fork in Dylan, he's done. IMHO, Dylan's music is better than ever. And his voice would put a bullfrog to shame. | |
| Tannoy Westminister Royal SE Pre-amp Preference? Fantastic speakers! One good preamp choice is the Canary C900 four-chassis monoblock preamp, comprised of two power supplies and two preamps. Works especially well with complex symphonic and choral music. | |
| $18k Tube preamp for large scale symphonies please One good choice is the Canary C900 four-chassis monoblock preamp, comprised of two power supplies and two preamps. Works especially well with complex music. | |
| Tannoy Westminster amp matching question. Charles1dad is right, in that SET amps will drive them fine. IMHO, 300B SET sound is best. | |
| Tannoy Westminster amp matching question. Art Audio Jota HC, Wavelength Audio Triton or Wavelength Audio Cardinal. Don't buy until you can afford one of these. | |
| Do you ever just listen to music All the time :) |
