| Supratek Owners Thread That's why it rang a bell, I heard this preamp at the Florida Audio Show 2019? 2020? man I'm losing my memory (and did not get that C.....), I have been to the 2 florida audio shows anyways, it was good, and neutral, almost like my Atmasphere MP3 ... | |
| Supratek Owners Thread I have the Supra at home, amazing preamp, dual stages, one warm stage one analytical, roll tubes and choose your poisson, it is a versatile preamp. I haven't heard the LTA (don't know why I got confused with the David Berning one) | |
| Which speakers did you find bright, fatiguing or just disappointing in some way? Incredible what human hearing perception is, some of the speakers in this thread are loved by so many and hated by others. This basically proves the other factors at play, source, room, amplification and such could potentially be more important th... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Qobuz Oscar Peterson, Night Train, magical. BTW was streaming Horace Silver Song for my Father before, following an experiment from Alex Berger, the Redbook version I preferred over 96 and 192, more raw sound but presentation was better balanced i... | |
| Has anybody bought or heard a Chinese knock off amplifier? As there is nowhere near as much reward in copying an amplifier ....as there is in copying even the most mundane of computer cards and/or computer technology. Exactly, they made better profits copying these cards than they would with an amp. | |
| Gave up my SET----looking for moderate to higher power replacement options I’m an advocate for high quality SET amplifiers @charles1dad I know you are, I followed all your posts and I know you had / have Coincident? and you tried the Elrog’s in the beginning and every single 300B on earth, I followed your posts because ... | |
| Has anybody bought or heard a Chinese knock off amplifier? I don't know about amps but recently I have been exposed to complex computer cards performing complex operations manufactured by American companies which the Chinese have cloned PERFECTLY including the software and you can't barely tell if these a... | |
| Gave up my SET----looking for moderate to higher power replacement options I wanted to experiment with SET amps as my only reference with modern tube amps are my Atmasphere MA-1s, tried the Dennis Had PSET amps and the venerable Almarro 318B, I know these are not the typical definition of SETs like the 300Bs and such, wh... | |
| Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary Thank you, your explanation makes sense, there could be NOS carts perfectly fine even after the years or maybe not fine but not mistracking either but why risk it? I get your point | |
| Technics SL-1210GAE Anniversary Hi, @dover would you care to please comment on the following If anyone values their records, I thought that suspension problems on NOS carts would compromise the sound but not the recordThanks | |
| Some DACs I am Considering-Any thoughts? OP with all due respect these qualities. I am looking for the elusive "Musicality". My definition of that term is another word "Magical"You will find on the recording not so much on the presentation. Listening to Bags & Trane - Milt Jackson / ... | |
| Classical Vinyl Series Hi Alex I think the 2021 sounds very musical, the intro piano and trumpet tonality sounds great, more than the 1964 or 1973 which is surprising. They all sound good but I think I prefer the 2021, Without listening I would have gone for the 1964 ed... | |
| Some DACs I am Considering-Any thoughts? I don't usually agree with George Hifi but I agree that a tube has no business inside a Dac, for the reasons he listed and I will add that a tube is an open door for noise (EMI RFI) to potentially get inside the Dac and taint and mess with the con... | |
