| Former MHDT Havana Lovers: What did you move onto? Doug - Went over to dagogo and read your rave which is very interesting. For you passive users, the MiniMax has a tubed output impedance of 3k ohms (too high) but solid state impedance of 200 ohms, which is perfect. Output vootage is 2.5v in both ... | |
| next step with magnepan mmgs? OK hotmail - I have a cheap suggestion (as another framed MMG owner): pay careful attention to whether your braced speakers are coupled to the floor. I recently took some steps to isolate my MMGs and it significantly improved the tonality and deta... | |
| Do you buy new equipment because you are bored It is a mental issue. Why not branch out into a new type of music from your normal listening? 1930 delta blues? Palestrina? Tibetan folk music? Cheaper and will make more of a difference than some tweak to an already outstanding system. | |
| New NAD 326 BEE Owner -Disappointed Help Sandstone - I was commenting on the 325BEE and you pointed to a review of the 326BEE. I would assume the models are pretty similar. If not, my comments don't apply. If they are similar, then Shine is making what I think is an accurate negative jud... | |
| Tubes for Scott Nixon UFO DAC Try this one:http://thetubestore.com/ | |
| New NAD 326 BEE Owner -Disappointed Help OK, Shine - I'll give you a different viewpoint. I owned the C325BEE for a couple of months in my mid-fi second system and my conclusion is that this integrated basically s***s: it's grainy and underpowered relative to the NAD published stats and ... | |
| Room Treatments for Maggies Donc55 - re 3 "3) Damp the wall behind the speaker, but not too dead. Keep the front corners and wall on the sides, bare or live. Keep the rear wall live."How do you recommend damping the wall behind the speakers without room treatments? | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? Lrsky - I completely agree with your post. I think TV is to blame. It is a time suck that has reduced interest in all sorts of hobbies. Audio/music is affected but isn't an isolated case. | |
| DAC: Scott Nixon vs. Eastern Electric Glad you asked. I'm interested in the comparison, too. | |
| Is Upgrading Degrading? "Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." Is that true? | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? I want to add my very positive initial experience with the Lightspeed here. After receiving some good advice on amp input voltage here, I purchased and plugged in the LSA into my system about a month ago and am very impressed with it in terms of:1... | |
| Disappointing Evening A dinner party is a social get-together centering around conversation. Listening to music carefully is a silent, solitary activity. There's a disconnect between the two. I actually think your guests were polite to listen quietly for a few minutes.... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Thank you for the responses and information, gentlemen. It's very much appreciated. To clarify, I have modded Maggies with a sensitivity of about 89 or 90dbs. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Pubul - I see. So you are saying that I would indeed lose some of the amps output potential due to the mismatch between the voltage output/input gap. Is there a solution to the mismatch other then changing to a different amp or DAC? Can DAC output... | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Pubul - Magnepan MMGs. Why does this matter? |
