| Ultimate_HiFi_Trades They appear to have a lot of positive feedback on eBay and it’s only interconnects so shipping from Greece to the US shouldn’t be too expensive. However, if you want to deal with a US company look into The Cable Company. thecableco.com | |
| Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time? @decooney I agree with you that I’m also not a fan of someone changing designs all the time either. However, the Super 3XRS’s haven’t changed at all except to install a superior driver. I had a pair of them a few years ago; they were quite nic... | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) @roxy54 Thank you so much for the very detailed response. I think it’s a super cool looking preamp, wish I only needed 2 inputs though. I still do vinyl, cassettes, and CDs in addition to streaming. I usually have a tuner too but got rid of it l... | |
| Warm, rich but detailed SS preamp (made you give up tubes) @roxy54 Have always been curious about that little Morrison Elad preamp, looks so cool! How is it & what did you use it with? | |
| Amplifier for Cornwall IV A low powered SET tube amp is the best amp for Klipsch’s, period. But if you definitely want to stay away from tubes, then go with a low powered class A amp. A pair of Amp Camp monos will do the job really well or a Class A Monarchy amp. | |
| Looking for an Amp Replacement I’ve been to a couple shows years ago that had Shahinian speakers featured and they were always coupled with high powered Bedini amps, so I believe he voices his speakers with those amps. I believe the large Bedini’s may be Mosfet amps so I would... | |
| When are speakers considered Hi-Fi and not Mid-Fi??? If you are considering Cornwalls & Maggie’s, then something is amiss. Cornwalls will sound super hi end if you run a low powered SET amp on it & Maggies like lots of power. Forget about all the other stuff about other peoples opinions on... | |

| Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time? I’ve had a couple pairs of Omegas over the years, they frequently come up for sale. Only thing I’m not a fan of is that he changes designs all the time, so it seems. Although the last pair I had were the Omega Super 3XRS which have been arou... | |
| Help me upgrade my beginner system! You never listed the gear from your brother that you are looking to trade in/sell? I’d ditch the power conditioner as well, I feel that they rob the music of its emotional content. I’m also a big fan of tubes, so a nice tube integrated amp would... | |

| Converting from 230v to 110 v @cleeds People recommended that too, what I’ve done is much simpler than that. I heard you need to have to correct size pulley too. | |
| Can US 220 Volts Be Used On European 220 V Amp? @cleeds I’m currently living in Israel where it’s 230V/50Hz and learned about AC & DC motors the hard way when I schlepped my Ariston RD80SL Turntable here that was wired for 115V/60 Hz. I got many opinions on how to make it work as with my... | |
| Zoomer needs help navigating 50's-80's Hi-Fi equipment @feeney Well, you can always hook up the equalizer to the Kenwood receiver using the Adapter in/out RCA’s. I would not plug in and turn on the tube gear until you’ve put it on a variac and brought up the voltages slowly. The preamp is not an a... |
