| Anybody own Audio Experience Symphonies? "Center 12AX7 is input and to (sic) outer one (sic) are for gain, (sic) Good to know if you want to mix tubes (sic)"I've posted several notes in the last 6 months or so about this preamp and how it uses tubes. The 'X7 in the center of the three is... | |
| Help choosing tube monobloc's Jeff Jones, I have no personal knowledge of the Rogue 150s, but usually when UL amps are wired or switched into triode, the maximum power reduces TO about one-third or just a little more. I'd be surprised if the Rogue 150s have more than 60 Watts ... | |
| DTS vs Dolby Digital? Dolby Digital is REQUIRED by the DVD-V format, while DTS is strictly optional. I think Universal uses it more often than other studios. Also, DTS is used only when the original audio material is in at least 5 channels; you'll never see DTS used on... | |
| Help choosing tube monobloc's Consider a pair of conrad-johnson Premier Twelves. 140 Watts per chassis into 4, 8, or 16 Ohms from 2 pairs of 6550s per amp. Two pairs in A-goN now, at $3300 and $4500. These are from the same era as the Premier Eleven, and I sure loved my 2 Elev... | |
| Speaker Wire for a non-anal listener Tvad: "Here's another Boo-ya! for Canare 4S11."Let's see...'boo' is negative'; 'ya', presuming that's short for 'yes', is positive, so 'boo-ya' means 'no-yes'?. | |
| Speaker Wire for a non-anal listener ...and then again, one could just twist the 2 conductors together, as lots do.. | |
| Speaker Wire for a non-anal listener Erik, do consider Paul Speltz's 'Anti-Cables', here http://www.zeroimpedance.com/products.html . For allegedly-high-end speakercable, they're highly affordable at $10 per pair-foot, delivered, and apparently sound quite good. ('Mine' are ordered b... | |
| Are MOSFET's voltage, not current, devices? Hmm...I think Herman 'nailed it' when he wrote "Well, that should be enough information, mis-information (sic), and half truths to thoroughly confuse you."Let's see if I can add anything useful with my just-enough-to-be-dangerous technical knowled... | |
| Looking for tube preamp with remote volume ?? C-j Premier Fourteen. There aren't lots around, but you'll find one if you're patient.Almost bought one myself but it's short a few channels for my multichannel system.. | |
| Your choice for SET amp? Boys, not every one of us knows that Lamm ML2s are SETs and have 20 Watts of power, or even that they're poweramps. This is what happens when people ask questions that lack basic information. I read the subject question as which SET should I buy.O... | |
| Your choice for SET amp? WHICH SET? How much power????????? | |
| Best SET Monos with ARC SP 6-C preamp I recently bought my first SET, an pair of ASL Explorer 805 DTs. WOW...never have I heard a piece of electronics make my system sound more like music. 50 Watts, uses all-inexpensive tubes--one each 12AX7, 6L6, and 805, $2995/pair RR.Try 'em; you'l... | |
| Question about Bi-Wire jumpers ...and besides that, the silver available to jewelers is not very pure, or at least it's not as pure as the copper or silver used in wire.. | |
| CJ mv60se/11a Hifi, based on what I've READ about the '60SE and my experience with 2 Eleven-As, I'd say they're very close. I THINK the '60SE now uses the same very-high-quality 'styrene coupling and PS-bypass caps as the Eleven (but you might ask c-j), and I'v... | |
| Audioquest CV-6 or Monster M2.2 If you love the new sound of your AQ silver-conductor interconnects, you should consider the KE-6 speakercable. It uses 4 (not 3) pairs of Perfect-Surface Silver conductors in 4 different sizes and the DBS. I use that (with LOTS-less-expensive int... |
