| LinLai WE 300B or the LinLai Global Elite Permaloy 300B tubes ? OK... I pulled the trigger on a matched-quad of the LinLai Global Elite Permaloy 300B's... I ended up joining their TubeVIP membership and on this purchase more than made up for the yearly membership cost on the discount for the 4 tubes... Onc... | |
| Innuos - New Re-Clocker Hi All,I was pretty skeptical about the new Phoenix Re-Clocker having much effect on the music from an already great ZENith MKIII, especially with the added $3149.00 cost ! Yesterday, I had the opportunity to audition a Phoenix-ReClocker with ZENi... | |
| Aric Audio? First Watt? PrimaLuna? Getting in on this rather late... I’d have to agree with Almarg... The Pass XA25 is a terrific amp and well designed/implemented. I have the Pass XA30.8, a little bigger than the XA25 but very similar implementation. I also have a First-Watt SIT-2... | |
| Perfect Path Technologies I've been contemplating using Total-Contact on my system. My concern is (like with many of these "connection solutions"), does this stuff build-up or scrape-off with every connect/disconnect ? I have a few amplifiers/components that I switch in ... | |
| Broken hearted...magnepan and vandersteen Audioman is right about true Maggie sound (several posts back). About a year ago, I auditioned the 1.7's and while they were good, moving up to the 3.7i's with the terrific tweeter took the listening to a whole new level ! Some of the best trebl... | |
| You've tried other amps and ended with Pass, please discuss Hi Eric, I've owned a number of higher-end pieces of equipment from various Mfg.'s over the years (decades), all with their specific sonic signature. As my listening and music tastes evolved, I found myself with fairly efficient (93-db 6-ohm nom... | |
| Has anyone finally decided to sell their Turntable and Vinyl collection? Hi Doug,I sold my analog setup about 4 months ago. While it was a difficult decision, looking back I have no regrets. I was fortunate in that one person bought the whole set-up, turntable, arm, cartridges, and phono-preamp which made it nice. (... | |
| Tidal WiFi not as good as cd My good friend, who also design's analog and digital products uses Tidal via hard-wired directly to his Innuos ZENith music-server from his internet-modem as well as via his house A/C line. Doesn't use it via WiFi. The music-server is connected ... | |
| High quality in-wall UL-C2 rated 10-gauge A/C wiring ? Thanks to all of you who have responded to my requests ! I have taken the time to quickly review the latest post with links to a great education on power and grounding. Even though I'm electronically-trained, it was a terrific refresher and real... | |
| Mirror Audio Tubador DAC recommendations I like the fact that the Tubador DAC has no upsampling. Presently, I'm using a BorderPatrol DAC SE and it is really good ~ $1595. I'd certainly look into this one prior to purchase.Regards, | |
| best interconnect at decent price I've gone through a number of interconnects (and speaker-cables) over the decades, however started to look at inexpensive ones just to try, instead of chasing the elusive absolute-sound mega-buck cables ! I stumbled upon Audio Envy cables and ha... | |
| Psvane 300-B Tubes ? ? ? I'm still using the Sophia mesh-plates. I gave up on the Royal Princess a good while ago. I am looking for a good replacement for the Princess mesh-plates. I have heard the Emission-Labs solid plates, not the mesh. The sound is good but notabl... | |
| Psvane 300-B Tubes ? ? ? Yes... The Sophia mesh-plates are really as you say, a hole-punched piece of metal rather than a true woven mesh. They do sound good however but also run at about max for a mesh-plate. They lasted fairly well but I don't like that one I got had ... | |
| Psvane 300-B Tubes ? ? ? Thanks for this information. I have heard the Emission-Labs 300-B (not the XLS variant) and they sound good however not as good (in my opinion) as my Sophia Princess mesh-plates tubes. I'm looking for a substitute, as I believe I'm on borrowed t... | |
| Psvane 300-B Tubes ? ? ? Here here ! Most 300-B tubes I have tried sound good. The subtle differences are in the Mfg and elements used I believe. As for the amps, yes... the PSU's and other components (ie... transformers) help make up or color the sound. I have a Bo... |
