| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? I have not listened to either. | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? Hi everyone - Remember me? I'm the OP. I REALLY APPRECIATE everyone's comments on this thread. I am still learning and appreciate the discussion here. Frankly, I'm still on the fence about which of the two preamps I'm going to pull the trigger on.... | |
| Supratek or Don Sachs - which way to go? The question above about how or why I narrowed my search down to these two is worth thinking about. To explain, I need to share a little history.A friend had bought a Prima Luna integrated to go with his quad 2805s. So initially I was looking at o... | |
| The Audio Gods are tough but fair-Have you had the "Curse of the 300B" ? Aric,Yes, thanks. Those comments are helpful. I'm preparing to move, and in my new listening room I should have room for two systems (since my wife objects to having the rather large JBLs in the living room).

| Bit the Bullet ... Don Sachs Model 2 Preamp So, what are your thoughts now? How are you liking the preamp? | |
| Cary SLP-98L vs. Don Sachs Model 2 Hmmm. I don't see anything in there... I wonder if I'm doing something wrong. | |
| Is the Cary SLP-05 still relavant? Oh, That piece of junk? No, definitely not relevant any more. You should sell it to me. ;>)I think that thing looks absolutely amazing. | |
| Tubes vs SS preamp question.... I'll be interested in following this thread, as I have a solid state preamp and am strongly considering replacing it with a tube preamp.Having said that, I encourage you to seek out a white paper on tubes vs. solid state written by Roger Sanders. ... | |
| Dynavector cartridges, old and new I am a big Fan of Dynavector cartridges. I have owned my Linn LP12 /Ittok for close to 30 years. For several years I used the 10X4 models, but then when I bought a used Aro tonearm it came with a Karat (was it a Karat 19A mk II? I don't remember..... | |
| Looking for great tube integrated for Martin Logan Summit X speakers Steve -There's nothing wrong with tubes, but I commend to your attention Roger Sanders' excellent white paper on "tubes vs. solid state" which can be found on the sanders sound systems website. I found it to be very helpful in understanding why so... | |
| Looking for great tube integrated for Martin Logan Summit X speakers I strongly suggest you reconsider whether you really must have a tube integrated amplifier. I suggest you instead consider either A) a used Innersound Electrostatic Amplifier (yes, there really was an amplifier with that name), B) a CODA amplifier... |
