| Best Integrated Tube Amp for 2.5K or Less Something about tubes with Martin Logans. Just works! I haven't heard the VTL combo with them but I have heard them with lot's of different ARC, Cary, Jadis etc. They always sounded their best with with the valves over any of the high end solid st... | |
| Review: David Berning Co MicroZOTL Tube amp Thanks for the informative thread. I have been hearing great things about his designs. | |
| Tubes plus SS If I'm not going all tube. (my preference) I like a tube DAC or Pre-amp or both in the front end. I use a tube DAC and pre with a Gamut solid state. It sounds much better than all solid state to the same amp. IMHO as others I'm sure feel differently | |

| Audionote 3.1x The 3.1 cd player uses the Zero transport and the One.1x Signature DAC which utilizes the black Gate caps in a single box. | |
| Review: AMC CVT1030s Tube preamp AMC makes absolutely incredible sounding products for the money and then some. Good choice. I wish I was a dealer for them. Great value!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I bought one for my fiance who is now my wife. We loved it. | |
| Regrets Selling my Porsche 911 Targa. Bought it new and sold it 5 years later. Best car I ever owned. Have always desired another. Alas with kids and all just not in the cards. | |

| Upsampling put to "THE TEST": R U ready 2 take it? Yes the Gamut is very good. As over and upsamplers go it is definately one of the better ones out there. | |
| Upsampling put to "THE TEST": R U ready 2 take it? We have used much more expensive DAC's that upsample and have come up with basically the same conclusions. Maybe not as dramatic difference as Zaikesman using the MSB but the same basic result all the same. A general smearing of information which ... | |
| Subwoofer placement problem solved... Great advice! Thanks | |
| SIlver Cable Experiences? Send them to me and I will be happy to cook them for you Lawrence at no charge. | |
| Upsampling the way to go? ? After reading your test I applaud your initiative. And even though I didn't think the Theta would slay the upsampler I was proven wrong on that assertion. Good job and I agree completely with your results. Good job! | |
| Upsampling put to "THE TEST": R U ready 2 take it? I agree completely with your findings!!!!!!!!!! We have found the same thing here using even much more expensive upsamplers. Good job! | |
| Audiodharma Cable Cooker anyone share experiences? I have used both. First of all even though the Nordost unit shuts off after 24 hours that is only intended to keep one from overcooking a cable. You just reset after every 24 hour duration. Nordost actually told me that cable like the Valhalla can... |
