| SCAM ALERT ON MULTIPLE CRAIGS LISTS - Watch Out! That’s good to know about flagging a CL post; didn’t know about that.Itsikhefez - I thought the same thing, that there are deals to be had out there and that this could be a very unique situation. A few days ago, someone was giving away a bunch o... | |

| Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass? Thank you Erik!Tomorrow I'll be receiving an inexpensive Amp Camp clone that appears to be very well made; however, it's only 5 wpc instead of 8. If it weren't for this thread, I would have probably never considered one of these. Many thanks! L... | |
| The 5 stages of making a bad audio purchase Funny post!But one of the steps that has yet to be addressed here is: Internet Window Shopping. At what point does one go through this stage, or like myself, I am constantly in this stage no matter how content I am with my system.Perusing EBay, Cr... | |
| Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass? they alll seem somewhat sterile and lifeless. IMHO, they all need a tube preamp to warm them up@lou_setriodes Nelson understands the importance of lower ordered harmonics since you can't eliminate distortion altogether (this is a lot bigger top... | |
| Beware: New (at least to me) scam being run on Audiogon members I too, am not seeing the foul play here; however, it does pay to be vigilant none the less. When I sell items on the USAM site, I specify that only USAM members only can contact me and notice at least 25% of people contacting me have newly registe... | |
| Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass? Good, as I'm not a huge fan of the chip amps. I've owned at least 7-8 of them with different chips and while they all sound pretty amazing, in the end, they alll seem somewhat sterile and lifeless. IMHO, they all need a tube preamp to warm them up | |
| Dreaming of a DIY 8W Class A amp designed by Nelson Pass? Is this DIY 8 watt amp a chip amp? What about the Nelson Pass First Watt amps, are they chip amps too?I'm looking for an inexpensive SS amp to go with my Museatex AVC-1 preamp. I have a PP EL84 amp already but don't want to run tubes all the tim... | |

| Looking for amp $1000 or under I've got Focal Chorus 807V's and while they are 92 db, they really like some power. I was running them with a high current 100 watt Muse 100 amp and it was very nice. You can pick up a Muse 100 for $4-500. For $1000 you can get a nice Threshold... | |
| Forte 1A or Threshold 400A I'd take the Threshold over the Forte or even a Threshold S200. I've actually never heard a Threshold amp before, but it's a Threshold - it can't suck, right? |
