Diana Krall - New Vinyl - Good sound - Poor Vinyl I just sent back my 2nd bad pressing of Classics/ Krall. This was supposed to be the newest pressing and fix the problem with the poor vinyl/pressing. I thought to give them a second try after they took care of the problem, unfortunately, another ... | |
Shuguang 845B vs Shuguang 845M Hey guys..Slipped in a pair of "B"s and have to say..I like them better than my metal plates. They are 90% of the transparency, just a dynamic, but warmer and to my ears are smoother in the highs..just a tad softer and sweeter over the metal's..Ba... | |
Zu Druid questions Jack,I agree that your room at those dimensions are not doing the Ushers well. One thing I wanted was a better near field speaker, and would say that the Druids fit that requirement very well. My room is 19 x22 x 8 and I still thought the Ushers (... | |
Zu Druid questions Hey Jack...Jack!!! Wait!!! I need a vacation too!! | |
Zu Druid questions Agreed. Jack, go get some Druids! ;-) | |
Zu Druid questions Duke,Thanks. I did get that part of your post, and appreciate the support for explaining how the Druids can sound despite the measurements, especially those specs that appear in the review of Soundstage.(I have some thoughts on that at the end of ... | |
Zu Druid questions Macro...I agree completely!! Why does this happen so frequently? I posted my impressions of the Zu's sound in comparison to the Ushers as the original posted requested...NO one else makes mention with the exception of Mondonitro about how the Ushe... | |
Zu Druid questions Tvad,Speaking of missing threads...is there any YOU have missed in the last 6 mos?? You are one amazing dude! ;-)Jack,My experience as a former 6381 and 6371 owner mimics Mondo's to some extent. The Ushers are very good indeed. Iv'e had a lot of n... | |
Dared VP-845 Bias Adjustment? 845W Tubes? YMMV...(Your Mileage May Vary)..basically how and under what circumstances you drive your vehicle may be different than someone else.. car for same car...your gas mileage may be different...thus the analogy... what works and sounds good to me may ... | |
Dared VP-845 Bias Adjustment? 845W Tubes? Telefunken 6SN7GTA [PHOTO HERE][GT: ??? GTA: top getter, white labels on glass, black base, round mica with diamond points scattered around it]GT: This tube certainly lives up to its legendary status. Why? Because it never existed. 6SN7s were NE... | |
Dared VP-845 Bias Adjustment? 845W Tubes? Brian,Both the KR and TS are already sold..But im curious regarding the Raytheons when they arrive I'll let you know what I think of them..I also tried RCA Gray Glass VT-231 and some Short bottle Sylvanias some time ago..sold them too. Just wasnt ... | |
Dared VP-845 Bias Adjustment? 845W Tubes? Brian..No mods. None planned. Love the sound just as it is. I run a Melos Phono pre amp into one of the line inputs. If I ever got a sub..I'd run it off the speaker level, so not concerned about a line sub out on mine.I saw your other thread regar... | |
Dared VP-845 Bias Adjustment? 845W Tubes? Brian,Yeah, I have the 2006 VP-845. Its about 7 mos old. I emailed Dared US and Joe answered to say that the 845 models are self biasing. Yes,I have the 845M metal plates from Sophia. Dont know about the Super TNT as you mentioned. Unless this is ... | |
Dared VP-845 Bias Adjustment? 845W Tubes? Brian,The bias is self adjusting on this amp.Not sure about the difference between those tubes. I have the metal plates from Sophia Electric and absolutely love them..much better across the board than the stock 845 IMO.Ken | |
SET amps and speaker sensitivity. A good rule of thumb for watt/dB combinations is 4w/93dB where every 3dB decrease in speaker sensitivity requires double the power wattage from the amp. Hence, 8w/90dB, 16w/87B, 32w/84dB and so on. This was taken from a review of the Dared 845 amp... |
