| I Find Primalunas Ugly. How about You? Is there an alternative? Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I am less interested in Audio art work than in I am in beautiful sound. I think the PR’s look fine but there are many better sounding amps to be had regardless of what Stereophile says. Their reviews are mean... | |
| Tekton Double Impacts It looks like my DI’s will be up for sale soon. As soon as I can get my hands on the DI SE’s that is.I hope Eric will be at the Capital Audiofest with those.Lance | |
| Oppo Vs Esoteric I think the Esoteric should sound much better than the stock Oppo. The real test would be between the Modwright Oppo and the Esoteric. This would be a closer competition in sound and price. | |
| The longest you have owned any gear? I finally gave away my ESS speakers I bought in 1977. My friend still uses them after replacing the woofers. | |
| New Technics SL 1200 GAE @audiofun , please keep us in the loop on the results of your regulated LPS supply adventure. As a fellow GAE owner I might want to follow a similar path.Lance | |
| Tekton Double Impacts The DS has a harsh digital "glare"? That is strange. I have just the opposite experience in my system. It’s the finest most refined DAC I’ve owned. The latest firmware update is incredible. | |
| New Technics SL 1200 GAE Pani, I too wonder if there's a difference. I own the GAE and love it but I dont know anyone with a G. | |
| Member's recommendations for tube amplification +1 on Linear Tube Audio. You can't go wrong and a ZOTL10 is all you would need but I would use a MZ2 with it. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts The Plinius SA103 arrived today and happy to say I was able to get the behometh down stairs without a slipped disc. After a good while of warm up getting to the toasty class A temps it sounds absolutely incredible. A tube like warmth but with spee... | |
| Oppo UDP - 205 Tonight I've removed the Modwright 205 and reinstalled the old Oppo 105. Now I knew the mods would widen the gap between the two but, holy crap! The modded 205 ridiculously out performs the old 105. There seems to be a major veil, like someone thr... | |
| Have you ever met another audiogon member in person? My local audio club (DC HiFi) has quite a few members that are also on Agon. I also have met several people from out of state that I've become good friends with here on Agon. Some of them will be coming to visit in November to hear my system and ... | |
| Oppo Vs Esoteric @oem-wheels , I have the Modwright 205 and love it. Please let us know what differences you hear when you get it back. Mine went straight to Modwright so I never heard it in stock form. | |
| Cartridge for Technics SL-1200GAE I have the SL1200GAE and use the Audio Technia ART 9. I'm very happy. | |
| Tekton Double Impacts @klh007 , im loving the DI's and interestingly enough using the Mirror Image there is much more bass now with this rare gem of a SS amp. As much as I enjoyed the Benchmark AHB2 it sounds a little anemic in comparison. I think David would agree sin... | |
| Tekton Speakers,Who owns them and what did you replace and why. I have been listening to Monitor Audio Gold GX300 for the last 5 years in my HT/ 2 channel basement. I liked the MA's although a bit more colored and bright than I would like, they had good bass and worked just fine in my HT. I paid $5500 new for ... |
