| wattage difference between SS and Tube If your serious about getting a Jolida then you should seriously consider buying the 502 instead of the 302. If I recall correctly the 302 uses ( only ) el-34 tubes, while the 502 will use either 6550's or kt88's. I think you will find the kt88's ... | |
| tuners under 1000? I have been seriously considering buying a used Sansui. I know people regard the 717 as being a good model. But how about the 517, or the 317? Does anyone have experience with them? Are they analog? | |
| tuners under 1000? Hey I got some good advice, BTW no one mentioned Kenwood which is recomended by one of the websites above as " the best " I have been looking at tuners on ebay as well as audiogon, and so far from the pics they all have a toaster cord for a power ... | |
| How can I solve the harshness of my system's sound I agree with replacing the pre, hafler is quiet grainy on the highs. However you didn't say how much money you want to spend to correct the problem. A tube pre would definitely help your problem.The Acurus cd player can be bright in the " wrong " ... | |
| best remote preamp for McCormack amp Yeti,Your question is wide open. We we could recomend at least 100 different preamps. How much money do you want to spend, and what kind of sound do you want? | |
| Blue Circle Audio BC86 MKII Noisehound feedback Rodargent,I think most likely your equipment is not sensitive enough to tell the difference. I think a system would need to be class " B " or better to hear a significant difference.just my opinion :) | |
| Want speakers for 700 but none sound good. Well no one has bothered to mention Vandersteen Audio, I used a ton of them and found they were good with everything I threw at them. In fact I found them quite good with SS gear. Meadowlark Kestrels are also quite good, I have a pair right now th... | |
| Additional upgrade on power cords needed? I have never used the brand you are using, but I would agree with Flex. I have found that the most significant change has been found using a good power cord from the wall to the power conditioner. And frankly I think just using a real good cord to... | |
| 2 different cables on biwire speaker Thanks for the imput, now I can experiment to my hearts content. Well within my budget anyway :)But I do have 5 or 6 brands of cables laying around so I geuss I'll start there. | |
| what is diff: Class "A", "A/B", and "B" Now that we all have a good idea (?) of the class A, B, A/B, was there something else I missed? Oh yeah, private first class :) The bottom line is, just go out and listen to the amp/preamp. If you like the way it sounds then buy it. | |
| Receivers 500 and under? I have never heard of outlaw, I did go to there website and saw that they have one reciever available @ $499. They also offer a 30 day money back garuntee. If you wanted to buy locally then you might want to look at Harmon Kardon, or Denon. I thin... | |
| kt_88 vs unnamed dealer ok, for starters I have agreed with Audiogon not to reveal the details of the sale on their forum. So I will be very careful not to write anything that would incriminate myself. Yes I did contact my credit card company, who told me they would cred... | |
| Need more bass response All but blind, in his chambered hole, gropes for worms, the four clawed mole.All but blind in the evening sky, the hooded bat, twirls softly by.All but blind, in the buring day, the barn owl blunders, on her way.And blind as are, these three to me... | |
| VTL ST-85 vs Quicksilver Silver sixty I have owned VTL ST-85, Silver Mono 60, ( only for 1 week ) and the V-4's. In my mind the VTL had a " muddy " sound compared to the Quciksilvers. If your looking for everything to open up ( using the Quciksilvers ) try the KT-88 or the kt-90 type ... | |
| Best pre under 2000 for Quicksilver Actually, I found the quicksilver pre to be a little dry at the top. I ran a pair of M-60s with a VAC CLA-1 and after that with BAT VK3i. Both of these definitely bought out the bass that the M-60's lacked, and made the mid-range even sweeter. The... |
