| Tube PreAmp Solid State Amp I matched a First Sound Presence Audio tube pre-amp with an EVo digital amp for great effect. First Sound is very very quiet, no tube haze, just that touch of life. Very important for acoustic music of any type and vocals. See Soundstage review on... | |
| Which Solid State amp 2k used? Krell? Bel Canto EVo 200.2. See Soundstage review. Best Value in this price range or at twice the price. | |
| Best Preamp under $5k?? First Sound Presence Audio Delux Mk II. Tube without the haze, brings everything to life with a dead quite backdrop. And its under $4K. | |
| Which sub is better for audio Talon ROC is a great sub for music, using it with a pair of Khite monitors, does jazz and classical wonderfully. The sub helped turn me on to Bach cello suites almost every night, get the Edgar Meyers disc and hear the ROC fill the room with his d... | |
| Marsh 400 vs. Bel Canto EVO Don't know the Marsh 400, have an EVo with a First sound Presence Audio MkII pre-amp, wonderful, wonderful sound for all types. | |
| Bel Canto EVo owners, need advice? I agree with Lindeman, the best "tweak" to the EVo was getting a First Sound Presence Audio MKII pre-amp. Its a tube pre-amp, but it is the only tube pre-amp that can match the EVo's black background and bass articulation. I'm now searching for ju... | |
| Bel Canto Dac-1 v. any Wadia Dac Any one how does the P3A compare to the Bel Canto? | |

| Talon Audio Khorus??? see the review at www.stereotimes.com . the editor notes the Khorus takes 400 hours to break in! but after that he claims they are state-of-the-art with no competition, price no object. he also rates the ROC sub . he is also driving them with dual... | |
| Jazz "samplers" you can also get samplers from REAL WORLD and NARADA, along with SONY Classical sampler at Tower. $.99 cents each, great little deal. | |
| Bel-Canto Evo THE best amp? I've been auditioning the EVo over the summer against other amps and think the high ratings are spot on. If anyone is a real 'detail' listener and likes ss, then the EVo with the B.C. Pre1 pre-amp will shut down anything costing 3x the combined pr... | |
| Tube pre-amp for "ss" amp? I've been on the same search, new system with a tube/ss combo mix. I recently auditioned the Bel Canto EVo digital amp along with their new Pre1 ss pre-amp. The pair provided stunning detail all across the audio spectrum, but particular down in th... |
