| Good tube preamp w/ HT bypass I just checked the schematics for the SF Line series and the HT bypass is a complete bypass: No active circuitry except for switching.Kal | |
| Some CD's I just Ordered...Any Thoughts? The Mussorgsky is better on the newer SACD release.Kal | |
| Need Help with Hum If the components which were once on the same line are now on separate lines, there are at least two issues which might contribute to the problem you have. First, the separate lines, due to line length/configuration, might have slightly different ... | |
| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? Actually, only individual parameters of "accuracy in speakers can be measured" with instruments. What I was hoping was that you might have measurements for the Revels that would show significant deviation from a flat response. As for time-coherenc... | |
| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? "The truth is, if you're looking for accuracy, which is not subjective, the Revel Salons fail."On what non-subjective basis? | |
| Revel Salons - Do they really sound like this? My objection is to the guys who dismiss any of these better speakers as garbage. None of them are. While I may have a preference for the Revels and reasons for that preference, I would not denigrate any of the other suggestions as sounding like a ... | |
| how much influence has Audiogon had Mebbe the influence is going the other way. ;-)Kal | |

| Good tube preamp w/ HT bypass Is there a reason why you are committed to tubes? I would think one should choose on the basis of sound and auditioning and keep one's options open.Kal | |
| Bi-amping with no pre-outs 09-30-04: Walkelin: "Maybe I'm missing something. If he wants to bi amp why not use a Y cable on the pre out to split the signal to the second amp."You missed: "but my receiver has no pre-amp outs." | |
| Two different brand amp in the same setup 5.1? It may be more important to match the center and L/R than to match the center with the surrounds.Kal | |
| Bi-amping with no pre-outs Not for this. He wants to bi-amp his NHTs and there's no way to get 2 stereo outs for the woofers (not the subwoofer) from a mono source.The only solution I can think of is to go to an auto/stereo shop and get a pair of speaker-to-line level adapt... | |
| Bi-amping with no pre-outs You cannot split the mono out into stereo. | |
| Living Stereo SACD's are a comin http://www.stereophile.com/news/081604mercury/index.html | |
| Good tube preamp w/ HT bypass I thought I posted this yesterday but I'll try again:The SF Line series has dual paralleled outputs for SE and for BAL. How about feeding the HT L/R outs to one on the OUTS on the SF? As long as the HT pre/pro is off, it should not load the SF run... |
