| Best POP audiophile recording/album... I like The Cowboy Junkies "Trinity Sessions" because it not only sounds great but the music is pretty good. Most of these sonic spectaculars have unfortunately bad or boring, or both music. I tend to stay away from Audiophile stuff, but with digit... | |
| Power cord suggestions for CDP and tube amp Try a Signal Cable Silver Resolution, it's a great sounding cable at a great price. | |
| your most memorable component My first tubed preamp, an Air Tight ATC-1, I never knew at the time that a preamp was so important. Now I'll never go back to ss for a preamp. | |
| WOULD LIKE TO RECABLE LOOKING FOR HELP Just curious, doesn't the Krell gear use CAST connections? If so I would think that would be the way to go, though I've never heard it before. | |
| new cables from Sonus Faber... Sounds cool!! Where does one get more info, pricing included? | |
| The end of Audio Intelligent ... Paul,Pardon my ignorance but what is Audio Intelligent? It's not that magic chip or the magic clock, is it? If it's not to painful could you elaborate. And regardless of what it was, please accept my condolences on it's closing. No doubt seeing yo... | |
| Backing out of audiophilism for now I don't get it, I regard listening to music on high quality gear to be a relaxing diversion. I don't see how it could be seen as stressful. Either way best of luck to you and remember, in the end it's all about the music and nothing else. | |
| Vince Welnick R.I. P. Basically the vault was transferred over to Rhino Records not long ago. I'm aquainted with David Lemieux who took over for dick Lavatka (sp?) when he passed away, and David recently quit rather than go work with Rhino. It's unknown whether Dix Pix... | |
| Best object in your listening room. I love my iron snake that's on the shelf above my head. The GF hates it though. Ah well. | |
| Good and bad w/ replacing stock preamp jumpers? I replaced the stock jumpers on my old Bryston B-60 with Tara Lab's The Missing Link. There was a definite change, the sound became more laid back, with a deeper and wider soundstage. With the stock jumpers the sound seemed a bit bright and two di... | |
| HiFi Tuning Fuses: Impressions and a Question Hi Tbooe,Just wondering what type of fuse you got and from whom? I've seen a few fuse ads and have been considering either silver or ceramic ones. Any advice? | |
| Air Tight ATM2 Direct Driven by CDP? Garret,No, by the time I got the Herron I had traded the ATM-1 for a pair of Cary CAD 300B Signature monos. That was a great combo, the Herron was easily one of the best and quietest preamps I've ever heard, ss or tube! I'd still have it but I wan... | |
| Air Tight ATM2 Direct Driven by CDP? Derrick,Great memory, you did indeed sell your ATM-1 to me, and a great amp it was, thanks! I hope you're enjoying your ATM-3!! | |
| Air Tight ATM2 Direct Driven by CDP? I used to own an Air Tight ATM-1, a fairly similar amp using 6550's. The amps built in attenuator works just fine and is quite transparent, in fact probably more so than the variable output of a cd player. But if you have both units go ahead and e... | |
| What CD player will warm my Thiel/Classe systm? Get the Jolida tubed player, I can't remember the model number but I'm sure someone will chime in. It's $1K new and even less used and is probably exactly what you're looking for, so good luck! |
