| Preamp Deal of the Century richmon:i believe you can just insert a flat blad screw driver into the gap at the bottom and pry the fuse holder open. you might wanna double check with mick first. obviously, make sure it's unplugged before probing around with a screw driver. | |
| SoundCity Speaker Outriggers jc51373:i bought a pair of custom outriggers for my von schweikert dB99 speakers. they are very solid and well built. i'm sure you'll be pleased with your purchase. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century simon:i think mick uses dhl now, but the 25kg fedex box that my chardonnay arrived in measures roughly 17" x 22" x 14". | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century just cd. no vinyl as i can't justify the added expense of the equipment as well as having to purchase all the "necessity" albums. couple this with the fact that most of the music/bands i listen to rarely, if ever, release on vinyl. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century i live in west mobile, around schillinger and airport. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century tom:thanks for the kind words. i live in mobile, alabama. enterprise is about 180 miles northeast of here. the weather was definitely bad and we were under a tornado watch for most of the day, but i don't think a tornado was ever spotted around he... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century pablo:the buzz is still present, but it may have more to do with the booster amp in the dB99's than the actual malbec amplifiers. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century powers:the malbecs sound very open and dynamic. the best way i can describe them is they are a bridge between tubes and solid state. taking all the positives of each and very little (if any) of the negatives. | |
| Gershman Avant Garde Owners i used to own a pair of avant gardes for close to 3 years before selling them here on the 'gon. if i recall, the were spaced about 2 feet from the rear wall and about 9 feet apart. the quality of bass from them is really dependent upon the quality... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century i'm not real familiar with the tubes in the phono section of supratek's so take all this with a grain of salt. from what i can gather, the M8081 is the same as a CV4031. i tried searching a few sites for both and came up with nil. however, there i... | |
| night stand / audio component also sanus and studiotech are two companies that come to mind. these might fit your bill:http://www.sanus.com/en/products/ProductDetails/line/avFoundations/pcat/component/modelCode/CFA21/http://www.studiotech.com/products/component_cabinets/ultra_u-22s... | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century powers:i use a bendix 6106 and have verified with mick that it is swapable in the supratek circuit. i haven't heard the phillips metal base so i can't comment on the sound, but the price difference is substantial. $400 for the phillips versus $40 ... | |
| Tubes for Chardonnay i'm using a bendix 6106 rectifier, electro-harmonix 6SN7, and sovtek KT66. check this thread here for more tube options:http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1112733965&read&keyw&supratek+tube&&st0 | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century i'm a big fan of 47 labs gear with my chardonnay. i have a shigaraki transport and dac with a pure power batterly power supply. the transport and dac by themselves are excellent, but with the battery power, it's extraordinary. | |
| Preamp Deal of the Century paul:i had no custom issues with my chardonnay or my malbecs, but i also gave mick my SSN before shipment. |
