| Krell Reliability? Tomer,I'm sorry to hear about your bad experiences with Krell, it seems to be unusual from what I can tell. As far as I go I've been posting on Audiogon for over 3 years and if you check my postings you'll see I certainly don't work for Krell I ju... | |
| Krell Reliability? I have to say that I've heard of folks not liking Krell sound but I've heard nothing negative about the reliability of their products. In addition I at one time owned a KPS30i cd player that I bought used, and not only did it operate flawessly, bu... | |
| audio research dac I'm not familiar with it but I'm pretty sure it's not tubed. AR makes tube gear obviously but I'm their digital stuff is all solid state to the best of my knowledge. If you're looking for a tubed dac you should look elsewhere. Good luck! | |
| Will improperly biased amp and preamp affect sound I would say that my experience is similar to Derrick's, my Cary 300B mono's distorted in the high frequency when the bias had wandered a bit. A quick and easy fix though. As far as preamps I've never had a preamp that needed to be biased so I can'... | |
| TV's... what does the typical audiophile have? 27" Phillips in the living room for watching baseball (let's go O's), college basketball (go Terps and go Orange, Md native and Syracuse alum), and the occasional program, Sopranos, Deadwood, Coupling, The Daily Show. My better half has a 25" Pana... | |
| RIP Ray Charles I'm deeply saddened by his passing. Ray Charles transcends music, he is/was a national treasure. | |
| Does Your System Sound Like the Real Thing? Would you really want it? Have you ever been in a room where someone was playing drums? Or practicing sax? Maybe you like listening loud but I think many people underestimate exactly how loud it would be to have even a three piece jazz band playin... | |
| Trelja- announcement and disclaimer Joe,Speaking as someone who knows you solely from your postings here you seem like an honest and honorable guy. Your involvement with Fried should not in any way preclude you from posting here, if you did we would all be the lesser off for it. You... | |
| Above and beyond..... Great story! I bought a cd player from Peter a year or two ago and he was an absolute pleasure to deal with. I'm glad to hear he's even better than I thought. I too am constantly impressed and delighted with the quality of people I meet and deal w... | |
| Best way to ship large / heavy speakers??? Do a search you'll find lost of info as this has been discussed extensively. | |
| Krell KSA200S with tube preamplifier I would tend to be careful with a BAT pre and a big solid state amp, I have read of some issues with BAT pre's passing DC and causing damage to big SS amps. This is in no way a condemnation of BAT preamps I think they have excellent sound quality ... | |
| Review: Merlin VSM-MM I have to say Jason I'm more than happy with my current Alon Lotus' but I was just suddenly gripped by an urge to call Bobby P. and get a pair of Merlins. Outstanding review, enjoy your speakers! | |
| For those of you that love Brazilian music... This is pretty old, but if you haven't heard Charlie Byrd's "Bossa Nova Pelos Passaros" it's a must have. It's been reissued as A K2 and sounds fabulous as well as having fabulous music. | |
| My first real hi-end audio system Please advise Why think about selling a system you haven't even heard yet? I mean it sounds like you're getting some great stuff, so are you a music person or a movie person? If the answer is music then selling that Mac gear to buy a reciever sounds like a big ... | |
| Help me choose a new preamp please? Thanks everyone! Well Dave I took your advice and went for that Mantissa. I'm very excited, and in a complete coincidence I knew the seller from the business world. He's very happy it's going to a "good home" and is insisting on sending it to me t... |
