| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Bobf, I know Art (Budburma) fairly well. We have even made a few deals. I believe he owned the Stealth M-5000, but not the Dream. Though I may have sent him a Dream for audition, I cannot recall. I did loan them to a couple of friends. Sadly, now ... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? I will second Fiddler's response, although I have not heard the GG Rapture power cords. I have heard many very pricey cords, from Nordost Valhalla, to Shunyata Aplha Helix to Purist 20th Anniversary, Elrod Statement, Stealth Dream, Dream State Luc... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Glory,Though I could not list them in any particular order, I have heard many fine interconnects. IMHO, it is obvious that all of these interconnects, though great, will depend ultimately on the users components, room and personal tastes. So in no... | |
| Into 2009; What rules?? Tubes or Solid State 12-06-08: VegasearsMost tube amps require lots of maintenance. SS amp are on/off and dust them off. I guess I would disagree with both of these sentences. Tube amps do not require lots of maintenance, and IMHO, SS amps are ON 24/7 (unless I'm gone... | |
| Into 2009; What rules?? Tubes or Solid State Tubes, no doubt about it. | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Glory, I'm flattered, thank you. Also thanks to all the others that felt my reply was helpful. I'm glad I could be of service.Cheers,John | |

| SACD availability? I second Kal's recommendation. I find this SACD site this best why to find and buy new SACD's.Cheers,John | |
| Nice power cable for EMM DCC2-SE: Stealth Dream Hello Renaat,The DCCA Reference Master presents a good bargain in it's price range. Compared to the Stealth Dream, I would say the DCCA RM presents a fuller midrange and more generous bass tonally, while the Dream is more articulate and has more H... | |
| Nice power cable for EMM DCC2-SE: Stealth Dream The Stealth Dream is a nice power cord period. I have had the pleasure of owning several Stealth Dreams, and IMS, IMHO they were they best sounding power cords I have yet heard.Cheers,John | |
| Best matching phono stage with Zyx Universe cartr. I've found the Walker Signature phono stage to work very well with my UNIverse.Cheers,John | |
| Verity Parsifal Symposium base You may wish to contact AudiogoN member Islandear (Blaine). I know he has used the Symposium base for many years. I have used the Symposium Svelte shelves between my Encore's bass and mid/treble cabinets for a few years, and I am very happy with t... | |
| ELROD IC cables, who has demoed them? Thanks for the update Brent. I've long been a fan of David's work. I am even happier to read that he will finally have a website up and running. I've long felt that David has been successful in spite of himself. Previously he has enjoyed much succ... | |
| Running a fan to cool amplifier any ill effects? Mark,This is the fan I have settled on, for now. It is two speed, and I find that low speed works fine, though I have no specs on this fan. I have tried other fans using a variable speed control. However, as of now I using the clip on fan from Ho... | |
| Gabriel Gold IC's are they really this good? Bobf, I did not mean to use forward in a negative way. The Rapture's are very lively and highly engaging. In some ways, as I've described before, the even surpass my reference Jade Hybrid Gold. I did bring up the forward presentation though, becau... |
