very cool finds,,,at animal shelter thrift shoppe. It's too late at night for me to locate the LSC-2340 in my collection, but if your Living Stereo has the Robert Russell Bennett arrangements of Porgy and Bess Orchestral Suite on side one, and West Side Story Orchestral Suite on side two, then you... | |
A few questions for Green Mountain Europa owners Hi Tcbannon, Don't hesitate to get in touch with Anthony Perrotta in Brewster, NY, who will be a Connecticut yankee in Bethel next year. I have had a pleasant email communication with him. If it is not an imposition on your listening plans, please... | |
Interconnects for 3D CD If you want to take advantage of the work of one of the great designer/manufacturers in our hobby, contact greggstraley@yahoo.com. His interconnects are too cheap to inspire your confidence, at $120 per pair. But, when you hook them into your syst... | |
wnat to downgrade my cables If I understand your question, try replacing the expensive interconnects with the direct marketed interconnect design for tube components sold by greggstraley@yahoo.com. For $120 (less, if you beg,) expect an audible interconnect upgrade, even tho... | |
Integrated Amp -- $1,500 or less. Aronov LS960i has been a great favorite of mine. A tube integrated amp whose 60 watts per channel yield a wonderful sound which will surprise you, as it has my visiting listeners, over the years. If you do a current search on Audiogon, there is on... | |
Rega Damping mods You could most easily add either the Un-felt turntable mat, or Herbie's turntable mat as an instant enhancement for the platter. Another instant enhancement which I use on my Rega RB-300 arm is the F-2 Titanium Heavyweight Counterweight from Grego... | |
Phono and line stage Clueless, Once again your are in danger of dishonoring your hardwon Audiogon username by providing enough help to the rest of us that our snow-filled driveways go unshoveled while we try to read it all. Thanks for helping Pren, and showing why thi... | |
Help me to tame brightness Take a look at dakiom.com for the $57 introductory stereo system special of two "feedback stabilizers" which may immediately reduce brightness. Also, I have found that running the "de-magnetizing" CD called the Densen D'Mag with its 3 minute cycle... | |
Review: Tritium Triphazers Tweak Todd, I did mean a pair of Triphazers, so I shall put them just before an integrated amp's CD inputs since that's as far downstream as it can go with its RCA jacks for input and output. I have only had time to try my Dakiom units with secondary sy... | |
Tube DACs If you don't mind saving a lot of money, check out Scott-nixon.com where the "TubeDac," and matching power supply are on sale new for a price so low it might be hard to take the DAC seriously. After pioneering the tube output consumer DAC, this is... | |
What Pre in connection with a C-J Pr 11A? Check out the Aronov LS9000 tube pre-amp which is usually for sale on Audiogon every one or two months. I think the most recent Audiogon posting for sale is by a Canadian store. I listen to a lot of music at home featuring violin. Simply as a list... | |
Good preamp for under $300 I have three Apt-Holman preamps, because its so hard to let go of this classic. The special stereo image adjustments, and overall flexibility, together with built-in fine phono stage, make it a winner. Many Audiogon members have extra units from v... | |
Review: Tritium Triphazers Tweak Thanks for such a thorough hands on report. Good to read you occasionally unhook yourself from the bedroom headphone bliss system. I have to go back and try again my single Triphazer, as I may not have given enough break-in time to my line level u... | |
Warranties - Best & Worst - New & Used Scott Nixon of Scott-nixon.com who sells the latest generation of his DAC designs either with or without tube output at a laughably cheap price. His customer service when analyzing, repairing, and cosmetically enhancing his older generation Anodyn... | |
Best DAC with Volume Control? If only playing CD's then check out Ric Schultz at tweakaudio.com who sells his EVS Ultimate Attenuators for $350 per pair, list price. The attenuators attach directly onto the amplifier RCA input jacks so that there is no separate preamp, and one... |
