LLano Amps.
The A-300 and the whole A series, as far as I know, were all strictly solid state. The Trinity series are hybrids with tube input and Hexfet outputs, running partly in Class A for the first few watts.I had an A-100 and had Randy transform it into ... 
Vandersteen 3a sigs- Tube or SS
I'm sort of surprised you are putting such large speakers in such a small room. Mine are in a 14'x28'x8' and it's barely large enough. The problem is the bass: the wavelength are too long for the size of the room when you get down to 35 HZ or so. ... 
Help Loud pop when muting BAT VK-3i preamp
Could be a DC discharge. BAT preamps have been known to do this. It goes right on thru the system to the speaker. Give BAT a call. 
Where can I get Aluminum cones?
Thank you. I appreciate the info. They're downright cheap, too!

What interconnects with SACD 1000 ?
Sean,You act like I insulted you personally. You do not need to post a list of your "credentials" as an AA member. I'm not sure what all that "I was first" info is supposed to mean to me.The ONLY point I was making was that IA was correct about th...

The fallacy of ac treatment
It seems like Snobgoblin chickened-out after October sometime. So we've all been talking to ourselves. I guess he was just trolling and not really interested in the music. 
The fallacy of ac treatment
Dear Snobgoblin, I guess the bottom line is whether you are looking for an explanation why AC "modification" hardware works or will work in your audio system or are you just trolling to start arguements or are you looking for a reason to make such... 
Kestrals vs Shearwaters
Having heard both and owned the Shearwaters for the last 2 years, I'd have to say there is absolutley no contest between them. The Shearwaters ares ignificantly more transparent throughout the frequency spectrum. They respond to better electronics... 
Marantz 67SE CD player
I had this when it first came out. I found it decent, but on the lean and dry side, no matter the quality of the electronics and cables in the system. I tried rich and good DACs like the CAL SIgma and the Alpha as well as the Theta Pro Prime II. T... 
Power Line Conditioners
The Panamax 1000 is NOT a line conditioner. I tis only a surge protector. If you want a huge difference for less money, try the Monster Cable HTS 1000 or 2000 power line conditioner. It is a true line conditioner as well as a surge protector. 90-9...
