| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? My Plinius SA 250 will be around for a while( I hope) | |
| Von Schweikert VR2 vs VR3 VR2...It has increaced dynamics and low end over the 3.The 3 is a fine speaker, but will not have the impact the 2 has, and would be a better choice for jazz,vocal type music. | |
| Dynavector Cartridge Load 100ohms or 47k ohms? What??? I have a headache now!! | |
| going to tubes, just one question.. Great move. I think you have basically 2 choices in your set up depending on your musical tastes.If you value the immediate and intimate sound of smooth club type jazz, vocal presence, chamber or light orchestral works, you may want to pair a SET ... | |
| Mcintosh and magnepans Hi Shaman, Here is my fess-up story!I was using tube amps with dynamic speakes, and as a prevoius Maggie owner of 1.5's, and 2.7's...I deceided to go back to Maggies and swapped out my Thiels with another member for a nice pair of MG 3.3's. Then i... | |
| AMP-Preamp Combo for Vandersteen 2CE's My own 2c agrees with everyone else here. Having owned them for a few years,SS and tubes work well.with some power above the 30W range definately., I actually bought mine after a demo using a Jadis Defy7 amp from a Esoteric Transport/DAC.It was th... | |
| Dynavector Cartridge Load 100ohms or 47k ohms? Dougdeacons answer and methodology is spot on IMO.and all other posts are good points as well IMO... I also use the 17D2MkII on a JMW10/Aries combo, but with a Bent audio SUT into an ARC PH3SE. For me, experimentation similar to the way he suggest... | |
| Best used speaker for $2,000 for rock music Im not a BIG JBL fan. However, I would agree that they are very good speakers especially for the rocking dynamics you want. I have heard the 250Ti's some years back and liked them for their excellent dynamics..There is a pair of 250's for sale her... | |
| Why the switch from Kharma/Tenor to DarTZeel/VSA Great thread! Although every piece of equipment mentioned (including the Buick Regal!) is way out of my league(well maybe not the Buick) I have to say that If you can afford it...by all means knock your selves silly and compare as much as you can ... | |
| What other speakers would you consider for this .. I suspect since the system sounds good with analog...your probably best served to change your digital to something like a Jolida 100 with level 1 mod.(Big bang for the buck player) It supposed to sound very analog like and smooth. Your system with... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Another great re-issue is Ian & Sylvia's "Four Strong Winds" on the famous Vanguard label. This in one where the original Vanguard was not as good as some of the others from that time, however, the re-issue is stunning! :) Ken | |
| Transformer stepup size Divo,Glad you like your MU as much as I..I can't say enough about how excellent a product. Dont want to digress the subject further on this thread, however that may be too late anyway. My recommendation for the MU came from TWL..who was kind enoug... | |
| B & W 801 model type and amplifiers I ran my 801 s2's with a Plinius SA 100MkII with modest output of 100W/8ohms and found them satisfactory in my room with my associated Equip. It wasn't until I recently traded up to the SA 250 that the speakers were transformed like no other amp I... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Rushton, Great recording!..I just ordered the Doc Watson "Southbound" lp form Robert at Cisco. He raves about it!..Ken | |
| Transformer stepup size Just to chime in quickly here..I recently added a Bent Audio MU SUT 1:10 ratio(20db gain) for My Dynavector 17d2Mk2..Using a ARC PH3 SE with the fixed 54bd gain. Although the Dyna is now 0.26mV output(up from 0.23) it drove the PH3 SE okay and sou... |
