| matching bat equipement? Yup I agree with the posts so far. The 3i and 5i are sweeter, darker and more euphonic, more forgiving with an ss amp. The 3i is a bit more euphonic than the 5i. I have personaly owned both the 3i and the 5i. If you can get a 5i at a reasonable pr... | |
| Seek Tube Amp to Flip-Flop with SS Amp Quicksilver V4 mono's ( used ) $2100-$2500. Quicksilver Sliver 60 mono's ( used ) $1100-$1600. not as much punch as the V4's but not bad with 6550's. CJ Premier 11A ( used ) $1500-$2500. Rogue M120 $1000-$1600 used all sounded good to me when my b... | |
| turntable madness Revvrun, I understand that electronices do not like to be shipped in general, especially intricate pieces. But unfortunately I'm not independently wealthy like some of the audiogoners are. I work for a living, quite hard I might add. Also if you r... | |
| turntable madness Hey Revvrun,Good point but wouldn't that also apply to new turntables as well? No matter how well they were packaged they too would not travel well? If that's the case I'm doomed to buying only turntables made in my city.just my 2 cents worth. | |
| turntable madness Hey thanks for all the info, in the mean I have a friend who has a Technics SL-B2 that he told me I could have, with a brand new stylus and cartridge! he told me it was middle of the road in the Technics line ( back then ) So we will see how it go... | |
| speaker cables with a warm sound I don't think it is the Rega either, maybe the size of the room??? I read the whole thread but I forgot, did you mention the speakers? Could just be synergistic combination that doesn't want to work. | |
| Recommended SS AMP for under 1,000 Read on... Sim Audio Celeste 4150. 150 watts. Excellent amp top to bottom! You can usaully find them between 850-1150 used. If you want even more thump, try a McCormick DNA-1. Just about the same price used, just a bit brighter in the highs. IMHO | |
| 6L6 tube? yup it helps a ton, thanks | |
| Tube Pre amp or Solid Pre Amp I agree with Stehno, if your trying to take the edge off, the cheapest route would be to change interconnects. You might even try all copper. Cardas would definetely take the edge off, they are sweet. " IMHO " The Rogue and the BAT are good sugges... | |
| Do power cords really matter? Huh? Funny that I read this thread. I just went through the power cable question myself. I'm sure a bunch of you will tell me I'm crazy. But you can read the letter ( slightly altered to protect the innocent ) that I wrote to the company that made... | |
| Power Amp Neeed -- PLEASE HELP prevent mistake. Why not try an ARC amp with it? I mean what could be a better synergy with an ARC pre than an ARC amp? You can buy a Classic 60 for $950, or if you don't mind shelling out $1850 you can buy a VT100, both on audiogon. Quite a good prcie for either ... | |
| newbie need help on decision on buying an amp I'm not familiar with your amps, but I'm quite familiar with the Vandsersteen 3a's. They need more power period! Vandersteen audio suggests between 100-200 watts for this speaker. I have ran them with 60 watt tube amplifiers, but have found the ba... | |
| tuners under 1000? Cool, I'll send him a e-mail. I decided to buy a Sansui TU-717. Since I have never had a tuner I'm sure it will sound great. " Ignorance is bliss " But from what I read it is a good tuner for the money. | |
| tuners under 1000? Cool, except I don't have a clue how to contact Don Scott :) Can you give me a hint? | |
| Fraud alert Fair warning to Audiogoners. Well now that some of us have taken offense to some of Glreno's alleged " ethnic remarks. " Suppose we get back to the point. Someone is trying to rip us off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Glreno was attempting to advise us. Frankly I don't gi... |
