| Why 24/7 warm-up period on amps? I can't even begin to fathom how many words that might add up to.Well, Frogman, we could compute using your 98 words as a conservative per-post average. It's a bit more than my 48, and quite a bit less that Elizabeth's 226.Enjoy your coffee!John | |
| Class A SS vs. Class A/B SS I own the INT-30A, have not heard the INT-150. Mark at Reno HiFi strongly recommended the 30A for my comparatively quiet listening habits, and I've been very pleased. But I assume Pass makes both models for a reason, and each involves a distinct s... | |
| Why 24/7 warm-up period on amps? As I read the OP, he is *already* aware that some people experience an audible improvement with amps on 24/7, and is wondering if there is evidence or theory *beyond* listening impressions to support the practice. IMHO, "it works for me" doesn't h... | |

| best wood for speaker cabinets ? oak,cherry, balti Below is a thread on "real wood" speakers. I have heard the Daedalus speakers championed by Al, and they certainly sound good. Other companies, like PBN Montana, do the front baffle of some models in a 2" hardwood slab. I agree with Has2be that co... | |
| Best CD I've heard so far 2011......... Ok Jax, saw Gillian and Dave last night Short show, with hot pickin and good songs, the highlights being Time and a White Freightliner encore. Sorry to say, though, they didn't transport me like they did you. Very nice show, just wasn't riveted, f... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore From your review of the Pendragon, Gp:Bottom line thus far: this new P-dragon has the potential to be the best speaker I have heard! It is leaving nothing to be desired.The fact that you sold them in 6 weeks (!) might give readers an interesting p... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore Cwazz, I certainly think you get to gloat a bit, after following this thread (actually was interested in Zus not Lores). 6 weeks for the Pendragons, and then shunned for a decade old design from a company that's out of business. That might be a re... | |
| If you could bring back one great artist that has LoL, Trelja. The Rolling Stones sort of look (and sound) like the Band of The Undead.John | |
| New Music? Slaw means "Flirted With You All my Life" on Cowboy Junkies' Vic Chesnutt tribute "Demons." It is indeed a potent song; "I'm a big CJ fan, but Vic's version is better (RIP). Get his "West of Rome" which is a sort of miracle.I agree with Bill that ... | |

| RMAF 2011: Any tips? Fritzspeakers makes very fine high value speakers, and Fritz is a good guy. The Zu room was fun last year (more good guys), I'd be especially keen to go if they are showing one of their statement speaker designs.The Balanced Power Technology/Empir... | |
| Low-powered, class A, solid-state integrated amps Pass now makes a class A integrated, the INT-30A, based on their XA-30.5.John | |
| What music is best for life in a tiny box? Just a few further thoughts, partly with an eye to minimizing clutter is a small space: I take it you'll be taking a laptop aboard? Then make that your transport, with as much memory (8MB?) as is feasible (a dedicated machine is better, but in you... |
