| Constant noisy tubes maybe go solid state? Not to hi-jack the thread but it seems on topic - anyone have clues about the hiss on my Rogue Sphinx?@gochurchgo the whine is less and less frequent so I want to believe it’s part of Brent Jessee’s burn-in theory. The hiss is a different story, s... | |
| Constant noisy tubes maybe go solid state? I sent back my crazy noisy RCA blackplates to Brent Jesse and spent 4x the money for Mazda 12AU7s pre-tested for noise and microphonics. These are better - actually listenable - but there’s a weird high pitched whine every so often and I can still... | |
| Morrow Audio special audiogon coupon code @ADMIN, could you please send me the coupon code as well? Thank you! | |
| Is the ideal multi-way a 3-way with limited bass? How about Rega’s side firing bass driver? This seems to be a great implementation in a floor stander allowing flexibility and tuning to the room. | |
| Constant noisy tubes maybe go solid state? Also just received a set of noisy tubes from Brent Jesse in my first attempt at tube rolling - will report back on the resolution. | |
| Anybody have both Herbie's Cone/Spike Pucks and isoacoustics gaia's Quick update - got my Herbie's sliders yesterday. Was looking for something to help tighten up a little bloaty bass. Holy Crow, these things are crazy. Soundstage is expanded, instrumental separation and clarity is bananas. Very cool tweak. | |
| Anybody have both Herbie's Cone/Spike Pucks and isoacoustics gaia's Thanks for this post - exactly my question. Just ordered the Herbie's as they are 1/3 the cost. Will post results! | |
| Versatile, non-fatiguing speakers for a small room under $1500 used or new: advice needed! One thing people say about the lintons is that they need to be pretty far from the front wall so I don’t think they’d work in this application. I really want them to work for me but I don’t think they will either. | |
| $1500 to spend... @dayglow Thanks for this - as I've continued to mull this decision, this is the same idea i keep coming back to! I listened to some Ohm Walsh speakers yesterday, they sounded great, but I didn't a feeling that I needed them. Regarding the Marant... | |
| $1500 to spend... I’ve added the Ohm MicroWalsh Tall speakers to my consideration. Could my Brio-R handle them well? | |
| Versatile, non-fatiguing speakers for a small room under $1500 used or new: advice needed! I’m in a very similar boat with the exact same budget! I’ve been looking closely at the Wharfedale EVO 4.3 but haven’t heard them yet - I’m a full range floor-stander fan. Interested to see what others recommend! | |
| accessories4less.com I’ve had the same experience with Audio Advisor and Music Direct. Ever notice how all product reviews are positive? Seems to be par for the course. | |
| $1500 to spend... In a secondary post I noted that my budget already includes selling whatever component is replaced. Thanks again for your help?ill also note that I was correct in assuming that you aren’t familiar with my speakers. Gosh I do hope you can move on f... | |
| $1500 to spend... @mesch thanks for that thorough explanation and your theory makes a lot of sense! I listen to a lot of indie pop, electro, rnb, and lots of Prince, so I definitely need those lower octaves. | |
| $1500 to spend... @jjss49 hey mate. No offense taken. And I appreciate your more thoughtful second response. But I’ll say, as with your first response, it is not very helpful: you don’t offer opinions on my actual queries, you don’t offer any alternatives, and you ... |
