| Tube preamp for Pass Labs x150.5 Amp Keep an eye out for a used VAC Standard preamp. Should be just what you are looking for in that price range. | |
| CH Acoustic X-20 PC vs Less Loss DEPC Reference PC Sounds like a good plan Chuck. I'd be very interested in reading how that would turn out.As I said in an e-mail with Larry, I would expect that these two cords would sound very different, just by comparing what I have read about them on the web. I... | |
| Amplifier Input Impedance 02-23-14: RadniI notice on my set up , Preamp : Reimyo output impedance is 560 ohm , Power amp: AES superamp AE 25 input impedance is 150,000 ohm . This gives ratio of 267 times . Does it mean I have a total mismatch ? Absolutely not! The 10X rule... | |
| What Power Cord can improve clarity and bass slam? Do the CH Acoustic cords and cables actually sell for their list prices, or is CHA like most other cable companies that offer steep discounts on their list prices? I've never seen a used one for sale, so it's hard to tell. The reason I ask is beca... | |
| Audio Research pre-amps? Well if you are sticking with ARC, then maybe some warmer cables could help. Try some Cardas, Acoustic Zen, or Purist Audio in place of the Kimber. Or maybe a tube buffer stage between the NAD CDP and the ARC preamp. Just a thought. | |
| Poll...Ayre V3 versus Pass Labs X250..... I think they all hate the stereo, because it takes attention and $$$ away from them. Sorry, can't deduct points just because you married a woman. ;) | |

| Cerious Technologies? I wound up buying a 1 meter pair of Nano Reference interconnects from Bob a couple of weeks after my post on 10-05-13. I have to say that I am very impressed, especially for the price. I don't think I have done any better at that price range, or q... | |
| Audio Research pre-amps? I've owned several ARC preamps, tube and hybrid designs, though I've never owned a SS ARC. I found all of them a touch too bright for my tastes. I would recommend looking for a VAC preamp in your price range. I found VAC to be almost as revealing ... | |
| Poll...Ayre V3 versus Pass Labs X250..... Your kidding....right? Are we still in grade school?This is like having a disagreement with a friend over whether chocolate or vanilla ice cream is better, so we'll put it to a vote from the rest of the class. Who cares what the rest of the class ... | |
| Is there a glass ceiling for cable technology?? I was under the impression that the glass ceiling was reached decades ago by Monster Cable. Of course you could just leave out the word "cable" and ask if there is a glass ceiling for audio technology in general. Since so many seem to enjoy analog... | |
