| McIntosh Preamp I spoke with Audio Classics this morning. I’m impressed, although closed on Saturday, Steve called me in regards to my email inquiry. I am leaning towards a MX-130 or C-39. I know they both do the video thing which I wouldn’t use at all and a tune... | |
| McIntosh Preamp Thanks Gus do far. Stereo5, great suggestion. I didn't know about Audio Classics and they have some decent prices or at least units in my price range. I'm not looking for a tuner or surround but it seems like three pretty decent deals on some of t... | |
| B & W 801 S3 Crossover Upgrade It’s actually on eBay. The eBay listing number is 152964921612. This is for a complete crossover replacement or rebuild and I believe wire inside the speakers as well. It’s also for series 3 801’s or 802’s. He does a bunch of models. Let me know h... | |
| B & W 801 S3 Crossover Upgrade I haven't had anything done with mine yet. I'll send the link to you later. I'm not 100% convinced I need to do anything at this point. Let me know if you use this guy and if your happy with the outcome. | |
| B & W 801 S3 Crossover Upgrade Thanks for your input. I found a guy who today rebuilds the crossovers including heavy awg inductors and resistors as well. He charges like $600 a pair. I may give it a try. I just don't want to screw up what I have. I'm airways looking for bet... | |
| B&W 801’s Sounds like thy used a lot of diffusion. I have my Levinson 23.5 in my primary room which made the 801’s sing. I haven’t moved them up there yet but when I do, I may try acoustic treatments. | |
| Jolida JD1000A 1 tube will not Bias @archangelluke I know this goes way back but by chance do you remember where you found the schematic? | |
| Adona Isolation Platforms Thanks Bob | |
| Adona Isolation Platforms I believe there would be some sonic benefit to turntables, possibly CD transports and maybe even tube products but i have a rough time with other equipment and thats not to say they don’t help. Its just that I can’t see the logic. As for Adona, I’... | |
| Aerial Acoustics Model 9 Salle fhe footers that is!! Love the speakers | |
| Aerial Acoustics Model 9 @czarivey i thought that was strange as well. I tried again tonight and my bottom end goes to crap immediately. I’m going to sell them, I have no choice. | |
| Amplifier speaker match Thanks Bob, I may do that. I never listened to Vandersteens. I don’t who sells them locally in Chicago area. Is that 2k new or used? I’m wiling to spend 2k’ish in a used market figuring to get more bang for the buck. I spoke with my local guy. He ... | |
| Amplifier speaker match Thanks for the suggestions. I just recently purchased the Jolida recently. I really don’t want to get rid of it so soon. I haven’t had a chance to really get familiar with it. Any suggestions on a comparable set of speakers as the Thiel CS-6’s tha... | |
| Amplifier speaker match I am aware of that fact about Thiel. It's a shame. So far not having much luck in favor of the Thiel's with the Jolida. Kinda bumbed right about now | |
| Bi-amping Thanks for all the input guys, taking it all in and is a lot to digest. Greatly appreciated. |
