| Dartzeel amp lives up to hype Rgs92: Thanks you! We worked very hard to get the sound good in NY, and due to the very small size of the room and the large size of the speakers, we were very surprised at how good it sounded. | |
| Dartzeel amp lives up to hype Wow, lots to respond to:Elberoth2: No problem, I am sure your intentions were honorable.Steinway57: Having an audio dealer friend "who has been in the business for 3 decades+, and who really has golden ears and also can sell the amp if he chooses,... | |
| Kharma Exquisite Reference - low power, low volume Very nice speaker. Many people have run them with low powered SET amplifiers, but I prefer more power on them. Room size and listening preferences determine just how much power you will want.And, no the need to be turned up or the sound is very cl... | |
| Dartzeel amp lives up to hype Dlanselm: Yes, if we are talking about the same owner, he treated the amplifiers with a product I had forewarned him about. It has destroyed a few systems that I am a ware of. Definitely not a problem with the amplifier.John Atkinson, during his t... | |
| Dartzeel amp lives up to hype Dlanselm: I may be wrong, but, I think the amp you are talking about was one that has was treated with an aftermarket product that voided the warranty. The amplifiers that were treated are the only amplifiers I know of that have ever had any probl... | |
| Best MONITORS availables Emigene: You are on the right track. The Magico is very good as is the Kharma 3.2. The Peak Consult is very musical while not having the last word in resolution. The Ultimate Monitor is another outstandign choice. I had a pair in my system not too... | |

| Is a Hydra the real deal? How do you know? The main reason for a Hydra 2 is to take advantage of dedicated lines. Most people have dedicated lines and then plug most of their gear into a Hydra 6 or 8 or other conditioner and totally miss the benefits of the dedicated line. The Hydra 2 is g... | |
| Calling all Von Schweikert VR-9 owners Rumney510: The speakers that were at the show belong to me. They are just as "tweaked" as every pair that is built. They are all identical other than finish options.Who told you they are not available at the factory for audition? That is bad infor... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? Jadem6: I cannot speak from experience regarding the Brilliant Pebbles and Clever Lil Clock, but I do have experience with Geoff's Nimbus Stand. I used it at a show about four or five years ago and think very highly of it. It has real science behi... | |

| Calling all Von Schweikert VR-9 owners Stehno: You are correct. His problem has nothing to do with the speakers. He is experiencing a "ground loop". Is has been diagnosed and the solution has been presented.Hooper: I am puzzled as to why you would bring this to Audiogon. We are in touc... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? Hooper: You are my friend and I do not want to contradict you in public, so I suggest we take this offline. My recall is much different.I will say that hearing it at a friend's house is not an A/B and has no value what so ever. Floor types, equipm... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? Adog: "They all pale in comparison when compared to" Have you had them "all" in your system to compare? I find it hard to believe as I am sure others will as well. Most people decide on an isolation system and stick with it for a long time for a n... | |
| Best Isolation HRS? SRA? Zoethecus? Symposium? Hooper: What is your experience with the Grand Prix Audio for you to say that? You know I know both peices extremely well and for Janson's situation I would have to lean toward the Grand Prix Audio. |
