| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? Tbg- no i do not have a Teslaplex. I am looking to run another dedicated line and have Sound Application outlet on my only line currently--wondering which direction to take. But 200 hours of alleged break-in on a socket is really pretty mindblowin... | |
| Is Accuphase E450 and Dynaudio C1 a good match? BAT 300xSE was the best integrated I tried on them. | |
| EL34 Triode Integrated with 35-40 WPC?? Sophia has one i believe. | |
| Naim or Octave with Dynaudio Confidence C1 my C1s hit the power guard on a 200w McIntosh integrated.tube watts and ss watts are different due to distortion---but those Octave pieces can be had much cheaper if you stick to US companies. they are just basic KT88 integrated amplifiers. | |
| Art Dudley Listening - Stereophile Dec '09 Nordost same review that said none of it sounded good until a power cord was put on his computer server?yeah, right Art---keep up the BS. | |
| Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments? 08-17-10: GloryI am to wait for 200 hrs. to really hear the Plex, so I am told.200 hours to burn in an outlet? How on earth can you attest to differences between outlets at such length---not like you are doing A/B testing.Keith | |
| Spectral preamps Spectral is to be used in a complete system. You really have to go all or none.I was going to try a Spectral preamp as well---but its just not an optimal setup without the amps.There are benefits to this---but the big problem is if you decide to c... | |
| Zu def 2 bass amps I think you need to look at your room before exploring that option. Most likely the problem lies there. | |
| NIN Pretty Hate Machine remaster its on its way to me...will post once i put it to work. very excited about this release! | |
| Downsizing from Ayre MX-R monoblocks Maybe a Rowland Concentra 2. Sounds similar to the Ayre. | |
| Best Rock Album in 2010 I keep coming back to The Arcade Fire---Suburbs. Just a superb piece of music (wish it wasn't so compressed though). | |
| SS integrated amp that has tube like qualities Ayre does not sound like tubes at all. Nor does Rowland, a popular recommendation. McIntosh is the only SS that sounds remotely like tubes to me due to the autoformers--but even the Mcs don't have the layered midrange that tubes provide. Based on ... | |
| Barefoot MM27 Active Speakers for Home Audio I demo'd a pair in my room and compared them directly to Dynaudio C1.Overall, they are very good speakers---but I really feel they work better in more nearfield conditions. My pro audio friend completely agreed. We both preferred the C1s in my roo... | |
| Accuphase Class A or A/B speaker match Dynaudio C1 I had C1s on 200 watt McIntosh and the power guards went off. ymmv, but i think they need power. | |
| Best value amplifier under or near $6K The BAT 75SE worked great with my Sophias---there was one for 3500 which is a steal.VTL 450s if you want monos sound great as well. |
