| What are the "new" brands in amps and pre-amps Not a new brand but not that well known and quite small I am a huge fan of Deja Vu Audio amps and preamps. Great gear and super cool people they should be better known. | |
| Who needs drugs when you've got music? Drugs? Did somebody mention drugs? | |
| The profiteers have struck Squeezebox Touch $750 Yeah I saw that and checked Amazon going for the same prices there totally amazing. I have a Duet and love it but if it ever dies I guess I will look elsewhere. Sonos maybe? Pretty crazy though it's not like the Touch was a collectors item or anyt... | |
| custom tube amp builder who has excellent skills Deja Vu Audio amazing gear and super nice people. | |
| Top 50 audiophile magazines to be reviewed in? Are there 50 audiophile magazines? That sounds like quite a lot. | |
| Internet Radio - help please Logitech Squeezebox Duet or Touch. | |
| Replacing Duet with Touch? Not to hijack the thread but can anyone tell me if the Touch is an appreciable step up from the Duet? I currently have, and love, a Duet wonder if the Touch improves on it at all? Thanks. | |

| FOCAL UTOPIA SPEAKERS Um a lot more info would really help here, what amp? Which Focal speakers? What cabling are you using now? Rest of system? Really impossible to answer based on the info you have provided sorry. | |
| Focal Micro Utopia + REL or 1028be II ? Well I have the original Micro's not the Be's and I have to say I absolutely love them even without a sub in my small condo. They are fairly easy to drive, I am running 17 pp tube watts, they are detailed but not bright and very well balanced. Bas... | |
| interconnect brand/model attributes???? I recommend, as I have in the past, just buying used cables on Agon, listening to them, and then flipping them until you arrive at one you really like. It's quite easy as cables are easy and cheap to ship. It worked for me quite well. However as J... | |
| Music Reference RM 9 Question Hey can you clarify how old the tubes are? Reading your post it sounds like they could be ten or more years old. If that is the case definitely retube completely, it is way past time. | |
| El34 vs. KT88 I am a big fan of the EL-34 tube, I find it combines a lot of the warmth of SET tubes with more power levels and in the right implementation can sound fantastic. I have a pp 17 watt EL-34 amp and I could not be happier. This was after running thro... |
