New Condo, time to downsize?? Well guys I've really thought about this and I've decided that I have a great system and in fact the new condo is 1/3rd smaller but the actual living room that will house the system is in fact a bit larger than the room it's in now. So it makes se... | |
Need Phono Preamp for SF Line3SE & Herron VTSP Hi,I'm just wondering how you are using two seperate line-stages? Do you just alternate based on preferance or are they both somehow in use? Also, as an owner of the Herron, I'm wondering how it compares to the Line 3? Sorry for all the questions.... | |
CD players in $2K range with balanced output I would have to say that given the sometimes extreme depreciation of digital it might be really worth it to look at something used. Lot's of great players in that range used. How about a Cary 306/200? | |
Do Kimber KCAG's sound bright???? I think it's a synery thing, I've used KCAG with tubes and found it to be wonderfully open sounding and not at all bright. However with ss amps, particularly more medium-priced stuff, it might be bright or simply too revealing. I don't think you c... | |
New Condo, time to downsize?? John,Thanks for the link, I'm certainly thinking about that unit, any thoughts on how it might appeal, or not, to a set user? I'm not at all close-minded, I just don't want to shock my system overly much. Thanks. | |
New Condo, time to downsize?? Newbee,You'll see I mentioned my turntable and phono stage. I would like to keep them but really only listen to vinyl about 3% of the time. That thought has crossed my mind, I figure by selling my current player, my preamp, my phono preamp, and tu... | |
Help with a new TV. New question guys, having read Paul Frumpkins story about CC and some of the responses I've decided to go with Best Buy. For $1999 they have a 30" Philips LCD Flat Panel HDTV with free delivery and a few other freebies. The question is if we get t... | |
Help with a new TV. You guys almost have me convinced, Circuit City is advertising a 43" Panasonic EDTV Plasma for $1799.00 that's looking more and more like a buy. We've decided against the Sharp because the "hidden costs" seemed to escalate, $400 installation, $250... | |
Help with a new TV. Hey Guys,Well I'm not interested in EDTV, I think it's a half-measure and I would come to regret not getting hdtv. I've been to Costco and didn't find anything I liked, also went to Best Buy without much luck. This Sharp at $2500 really seems like... | |
RS Audio Illume Interconnect inquiry Hi David,I have a pair of these exact cables between my Herron preamp and KR Audio amp. This is a really fine cable and a super value, it replaced a pair of Kimber KCAG's at 4x the price with pretty equivalent sound quality. I think those silver b... | |
What's after Supratek Dennis,The tubes in my Syrah were as follows; Raytheon 417A's, Mullard 6GK5's, Sylvania 6SN7's, RCA Black Metal 6L6's, and a Phillips Miniwatt GZ34 rectifier. It sounded great, it's just that the Herron seems to have a lower noise floor. Also the ... | |
What's after Supratek Dennis,I went from Supratek to a Herron VTSP1A and I think the Herron is just a bit better overall. It doesn't have a remote but the new linestage from Herron does, I've paired mine with a Camelot Lancelot Pro phono stage for a total used price of... | |
Sound Anchors for B&W Silver Signatures 805's Krell man,I really don't mean to hijack your thread but I just looked at your system and would love to hear your comments on your Herron preamp. I've had one very briefly and think it's still burning in, just looking for comments/advice from longe... | |

confused??? Not to confuse you further, but I just picked up a Camelot Lancelot Pro battery powered mm/mc phono stage for under $500, $1K new, and it sounds really fantastic. Highly recommended at used or even new prices. |
