| How To Field Questions About Your Audiophile Lifestyle... It almost seems like we should skulk around shamefully because of this oddball conviction we hold pertaining to sound and it's reproduction, well so be it. Those who visit my dungeon aka basement either fall to the side of the so called instant be... | |
| speakers with balls Ok, so oddly no one has mentioned it but if you want a speaker that truly rocks and does everything else extremely well Klipsch Palladium is what you have to consider, either the p37f, 38 or 39. They pop up here and there on different sites used o... | |
| noisy tube preamp Ok, I appreciate all the advice, informative and relevant as always. I will definitely get some quality tubes as soon as I can. | |
| noisy tube preamp Also something that I may have misrepresented is that the buzz (not the high frequency pitch) i hear is intermittent and comes on every few minutes until the pre warms up so it's not a constant thing. | |
| noisy tube preamp Thanks for all the info, this basically confirms what I initially thought. Silly of me to think that actually might be happy with my current setup for any significant length of time... This "hobby" and I put this in quotations because I don't thin... | |
| noisy tube preamp @jperry the info is actually at the end of my post, it's Jolida fusion preamp | |
| noisy tube preamp @atmasphere Huh... That did not occur to me. I kind thought of the preamp/tube as a single entity especially when new but I see how that could be misleading. | |
| noisy tube preamp @atmasphere so the preamp is about one year old and it supposedly has only few (two or three?) hundred hours on it, as far as I know. Seems like that wouldn’t be enough time for the tubes to degrade significantly but I’ve also heard different. I’v... | |
| noisy tube preamp The tubes are stock (as far as I know, I'm a second owner) 12au7 and 12ax7 and this being an inexpensive preamp I'm thinking they are not of any significant quality and should be replaced shortly after purchase which is fine by me. Also as far as ... | |
| Speaker Break-In - What Physically Changes During Break-In To Enable Better Sound? Even if a mechanical device ( high end or other) is pushed to its limits for testing purposes within a short period of time that the factories time constraints allow, it does NOT mean it's been through its break in cycle. It's no different than an... | |
| Rythmik subwoofer Check out HSU research. Internet direct sales, NOT cost prohibitive, well made, quite acclaimed, integrate very well with my horn loaded Klipsch palladium, seamlessly in fact. | |
| How thick should the front baffle of speakers be? Well, I suppose someone should tell Alon Wolf he's got it all wrong.. :-) | |
| 2.1 tube pre with ht bypass? Thanks a lot for all the suggestions, for some reason audiogon wasn't letting post anything for few days. Anyway, the input impedance of my amp over imbalanced inputs is 23 kohms and 32 over balanced so the primaluna is out unfortunately but the j... | |
| 2.1 tube pre with ht bypass? Yes! The primaluna looks like the ticket. By bass management I just mean that I'd prefer a dedicated sub out with passive x-over but the Luna is exactly what I'd need. Now if I could only find it second hand... | |
| 2.1 tube pre with ht bypass? I really want to stay with strictly 2 (if dual outs are existing) or 2.1 pre. I have a feeling that unnecessary circuits extend the signal path raising noise floor etc, etc. |
