| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Thanks Grannyring on the power supply. I will get one. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Thanks VyokyongAt times I use a Burson ab 160 with my LSA. It is a buffer that is exceptionally organic sounding. I wanted to say tube like but organic/natural sounding is more correct. They are not made anymore but sometimes available used. Now I... | |
| Is digital contamination that big of a deal? Nice consideration Keithmundy. That is something that I might benefit from also. A good digital PC. | |
| 1/4'' ding / chip on a glossy black speaker If they are really wood cabinets and you want them to have that natural look do this. Get yourself an experienced professional woodworker, by which I mean, woodpecker. They will make those cabinets look identical. Sorry, just couldn't resist. Chec... | |
| Audio Art Statement 1 power cables? Only posting this because nobody else has chimed in. Have not listened to them. However I really do like the ic 3 se's that I got from Fritz. They are really good. He is a really good guy to deal with. | |
| Who is your overall favorite guitarist? Their are a lot of great ones. A few I like you don't hear often - Tommy Emanuel, Paco de Lucia, John McGlauphlin, Ry Cooder, and James Gurley. | |
| Most enjoyable speaker you heard under $800?? +1 Mofi. Still a great speaker. | |
| what speaker new or used for 5k? I know a different amp and pre amp can breath life into those speakers. I would say the amp and pre are more laid back/dead sounding than the speaker on that speaker. I use a Belles Ref 150a V2 with a passive pre with excellent results. Something ... | |

For me that was going from a standard leviton outlet to the Maestro. It seemed like a change that I might experience if I sent my amp ... | |
| Kanye West - Grammy comment, re Beck Onhwy61I do not think that is why he sell bazillions of his music. That happens because they like his music, not because people are pissed off at it. Please tell 'us'(the signifier)what he is doing right,('something' right?). So if he is trying to... | |
| Any monitors clearly better than Pulsars? The Raidho's are not night and day difference from the Pulsars for most people. To an experienced audiophile they are serveral levels more refined though. Worth the extra dollars spent. They are both very fine speakers. | |
| Is my preamp useless? I really appreciate your input on this Grannyring because you give it a better chance than most reviewers would and are sincere about your findings. We all benefit from it no matter how it has come about. It will be interesting to see if it kicks ... | |
| Is my preamp useless? Thanks Grannyring for the comments. I am looking forward to hear how the LSA works for you this time. | |
| Can't get Acoustic Zen Adagios to sound smooth What was the original post? | |
| Is my preamp useless? Grannyring that is an interesting thing to do. To keep trying the LSA. I appreciate your enthusiasm and earnest work to get good sound. That has been documented on Agon for all to see. And that has benefitted me and I am sure others. Thanks. And b... |
