| Sonus Faber CONCERTO-Tube people, how much power.. I used to have a pair of the original Concerto Grand Piano's and drove them very nicely in a medium sized room with a 70 watt per channel c-j Premier 11a. When I switched amps to an Air Tight ATM-1 with 30 watts per channel I found them to be too ... | |
| Are Preamps necessary? David,I'm just taking a guess here but if you're able to listen to music right now that Yamaha amp is probably an integrated, in which case you wouldn't need a preamp because you basically already have one. That's just a guess, am I right. All a p... | |
| Best tube mono block for 2k Myraj,It would be in the best interests of everyone if you pointed out that you have Cary 572 monoblocs currently for sale. | |
| Keep equipement or trade? I like to try new things but because I try to keep my audio expenditures to a minimum, it's got to be a great deal that makes sense. A lot of times that's a trade rather than simply buying and selling. I like trading because people get creative bu... | |
| How are the blue note RVG CD's? Alpass,The correct website is www.fantasyjazz.com, the process it jvc but the music is licenced to Fantasy Records. | |
| How are the blue note RVG CD's? I've picked up a few as well, very nice sound and even better I found a bunch for $10.99. For even better sound check out the K2's from JVC, they use the some mastering process as XRCD's but at regular cd prices. K2's are some of the best sounding... | |
| Are you bored to tears with the topics lately? Bill,Perhaps given your system and the ugliness of your chair, you should get yourself a litter, help up by a half dozen politically incorrect virgins to ensure that your ears are at tweeter height. How's that? By the way digital sucks! | |
| plauged by off center image, am I insane? I notice the same thing,images a bit to the left, but I'm pretty sure it's just my room. The left speaker has a side wall about a foot away and the right speaker has open space. I'm sure that inbalances things, though it's not very severe and not ... | |
| About Lugnut -- Patrick Malone Patrick has exchanged email with me unprompted, merely because he had advise he wanted to share. He strikes me as a wonderfully caring and giving person and this news is very tough to take. I don't know what to say other than to wish Patrick a spe... | |
| Introducing Tubes? I personally think the preamp influences system sound mo ethan any component and thus would suggest a tubed preamp might be what you're looking for. But first ask yourself, are you saying you need tubes or are your friends? If you like the sound t... | |
| Source to two Preamps question: Home theatre passs through should work if your preamp has one. | |
| Aerial Acoustic Model 7Bs vs. Model 9s? It would be helpful to know your room size, dimensions, and partnering equipment. Particularly the room stuff, if you have a good fairly large room the fuller range speaker might be best, smaller or more difficult the smaller speaker and sub might... | |
| Classe CA-400 amp trips BAT preamps have a rep for sometimes outputting small amounts of dc, that could be what's happening. DC would cause your amps protection circuit to kick in. Get a multimeter and measure the dc output of you preamp. It's not very hard to do, I can'... | |
| Speaker advice please for Bryston B60... I used to run a Bryston B-60 with a pair of Soliloquy 6.2's to good effect in a small room. I would think for a smaller room the 5.3's would work very well also. Have fun, that's a great little amp. | |
| Supratek ?? I took my Syrah to a local dealer, Deja Vu Audio, for a minor repair and when I went to pick it up they had hooked it up to give it a listen. They were quite impressed and when I then told them it had originally cost $2500 and was now $2900 they w... |
