| Any suggestions for sound dampening and/or control for Golden Ear Triton Ones? We obviously have an audiophile comedian in the house...đThere are a few other threads out there that could benefit from some dry humor. | |
| Maggie 20.7's: Sanders Magtech with Rogue Pharaoh as preamp Youâll need a separate phono preamp for your turntable if you go the passive preamp route. Also make sure it has enough gain to match your cartridge. | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) Most if not all the speakers in that price range will and should have excellent sound across the entire frequency range. To retrieve the sound or put more or less emphasis on certain portions of that range will greatly depend on the amp/preamp com... | |
| Need Advice on Amp Audition at a Dealers Iâve done this a few times and to be honest the results are mixed at best. Different speakers, room, cables, partnering electronics, etc., completely mask the differences in the amps. Unless youâre comparing very different types of amps, e.g, low ... | |
| Aerial 9 need a sub? Most likely not unless, 1) its used for home theater, 2) you have a very large listening room or, 3) you listen to rock and you really love floor shaking bass. It also depends greatly on what amplifier itâs paired with. Youâll need a high power/cu... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. â...anybody have a used RM-10 they want to part with ?????âTakes a minute to check the for sale section on Aâgon. $2,450 will get you one. Not mine. | |

| Passive preamp to a power amp? "...will bring out the hysteria in that lot, bought on by the cost they have invested in their preamps that are slowly becoming extinct."No hysteria at all just personal experience and reading the experience from folks when the same question is as... | |
| Passive preamp to a power amp? Here we go again....same old selective and mostly out of context quotes pushing a passive preamp from a maker of one.To the OP: Sorry but this topic has been discussed ad nauseam in multiple threads each with multiple pages. Bottom line is you nee... | |
| Tube voltage regulators I've rolled some old stock RCA OD3/VR150 in my preamp but couldn't really tell the difference in sound quality. All in all, there aren't as many options in voltage regulator tubes as there are for signal/rectifier tubes. | |
| Suggestion for best stereo amp ? mzkmxcv,Based on your remarks on amps, DACs, etc., it seems like you're convinced that only measurements define the sound quality of a component and you won't budge. That's fine but don't be so adamant  in trying to convince others. Like I said in... | |
| Audiogon member suggestions for a speaker that sounds good at low volume!!! In a 20'x20' room, assuming a normal (7'-10' triangle) seating/speaker arrangement, you won't hear much music at 45-50dB, just like elevator background music. I may be the first person to say this, but I wouldn't waste time//money on quality speak... | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification george, you would have had more credibility arguing against people trying to make a buck, pushers, etc., if you stopped pushing your passive preamps every time the topic of preamps comes up. Going way off topic here, sorry. | |

| TIDAL-Who knows what you are hearing? Don't Ask, Don't Tell. As an aside, using Node2, has anyone seen any 192k content fromTidal HiFi? Looks like 96k is the highest rate unless 192k is only through the analog output which would be difficult to verify. |
