Am I the only one that finds the "Round thumbnail frames" irritating on classifieds? There's no way around it, all private sellers get the porthole on their items.Only the listing display can be changed to Classic view. | |
Am I the only one that finds the "Round thumbnail frames" irritating on classifieds? Oh, no doubt we're resistant to change. | |
Looking at AQ NRG-Y3 for parasound A21 amp.... Since you’re on a budget and this is your first cable, check out Cullen Cables, PS Audio, and Signal Cables. There are others who build high current cables.These are for an amp...http://www.cullencable.com/gold-series/http://signalcable.com/magicp... | |
Am I the only one that finds the "Round thumbnail frames" irritating on classifieds? @rcprince , did u see my comments? Even in Classic view, featured ads still display the porthole view. Very annoying. | |
Looking at AQ NRG-Y3 for parasound A21 amp.... An amp such as your A21 should use a heavier gauge power cable since it draws much more current than a source component.As you stated, that AQ cable is suited for source components which draw a low amount of current. A large amp will never perfo... | |
Am I the only one that finds the "Round thumbnail frames" irritating on classifieds? I buy and sell on Audiogon, and have also been skipping past those listings. Even when viewing the classifieds in "Classic" mode, thumbnails and featured ads display the porthole photos. It's a terrible design and I'll bet some sales are being los... | |
Where to get XLR male to male cable Really weird. Maybe it's a Canadian thing, eh?Ask Blue Jeans or Signal Cable to make them. | |
Where to get XLR male to male cable Why would a preamp output to amp input use a male/male?Standard connection would be a male to female. | |
Does anyone use white gloves to handle records? @isochronism ,+1. 😄 | |
Tube info The M125 monoblocks...http://www.tubes4hifi.com/bob.htmThere are indeed only 2 driver tubes on each monoblock. If I’ve read this correctly, the driver stage generates higher than typical voltage, so there isn’t a separate gain stage. The sonic eff... | |
Rogue Atlas Magnum sounds bright -- any recommendations? I hear you on the input tubes and have some nice NOS 12au7 and 12ax7 tubes to roll through the amp. I have Cerious Technology GE IC’s in my rig so I will live with them. The GE ICs are very detailed and revealing so chose your tubes wisely. Your s... | |
Tube info What is the make and model of your amp so we can Google it. | |
Tube info In a power amp the tube or tubes in the gain stage have the most influence on sonic signature. I've been told that the driver/phase inverters have little effect on sonics; eg, timbre, dynamics.Not so, IME. The tubes in the driver stage have an aud... | |
Tube info The question is what type of sonics are you looking for from your amp? I was very pleased with the Brimar CV4003/12AU7 from Upscale... provided warmth with extension. When I changed my power tubes, I went with NOS Tung Sol 12AU7’s which provided t... | |
one short and one long speaker cable work? I think Geoff is saying the sound between the two cables will be inperceivable. A typical speaker cable with low impedance will not have an audible difference between such short lengths. Keep your cables as is and dont coil them. |
