| Preamp Deal of the Century Hey just curious, looking to see if any of our happy (or unhappy) Supratek owners have mated it to a solid state amp? And if any, what’d you mate it to and how did it go? I saw a post here where a member touched on this, but it was very early o... | |
| Are You Happy With Your Phono Preamp? P.S. before the VTPH-2A, while I didn’t have the Parasound JC3+, I did indeed upgrade from the JC3 Jr. Big difference. | |
| Are You Happy With Your Phono Preamp? Wouldn’t dream of parting with my Herron VTPH-2A, but I realize that doesn’t add much to this discussion given that Keith decided to ‘semi-retire’. No complaints though, since it’s been in my system. | |
| RS150 (HiFi Rose)…..anyone? Thanks for the link to other thread. I had searched first, but obviously not so well. jim | |
| What is the Bu-ray plauyer that you are using? Oppo 205 | |
| DAC with programmable chip(s) Thanks guys for your replies...YES, an FPGA DAC was exactly what I was reading about. Given the ever-evolving digital space, this concept made (makes) sense to me -- as long as the engineer/designer and the company are long-term players in the i... | |
| Live music you have attended that left impact....perhaps better than you expected. James Taylor Linkin Park Cat Stevens Pink Floyd / Roger Waters solo Santana The Smiths | |

| Musical Fidelity Thanks to those of you who’ve replied thus far. Although now owned & distributed by Focal/NAIM, it’s obviously more of a ‘boutique’ brand, in that it’s not so widely known. If anyone else has experience, please pass along. Thanks. | |
| Cassette Deck servicing/restoration in U.S.? Yeah, I may wind up doing exactly that. I know I said there’s ‘nothing wrong’ with it, but I know, given it’s age (mid-eighties) it must need belt(s), idler, other rubber parts (I know some/most of the parts are available as aftermarket), and I ... | |
| One big reason why brick and mortar high end audio dealers struggle. @oregonpapaI speak from experience here having spent over 50 years in commissioned sales.I’ve been in corporate sales for 25 years…I despise dealing with <most> commissioned salespeople for personal transactions. Go figure. | |
| A/C power line polarity on new phono preamp 10-4 thanks | |
| A/C power line polarity on new phono preamp @jasonbourne52 - thanks for the recommendation, I have a voltmeter (somewhere) in the garage (and a cheater) I’ll dig them out. @tvad — the html link didn’t work for me, can you re-post what’s on the other end of that link@fuzztone — I haven’t s... | |
| Member Make Zero Sense So I catching up on reading and I click on thread call hi mid fi and this same guy again hijack whole thread in total chaos and no sense. He even post photo of system that belong in my kindling bucket for outdoor fireplace by pool where my wife si... |
