"no significant differences to be heard" Doh!(Stenho did hear a difference, he just didn't "cook" 'em right)Maxgain,throws back the rest of his snake oil Manhattan, turns his back and leaves the forum... muttering something under his breath about ... 
The Great Cryo'd Outlet Test
Stehno,I don't think you need to worry about saving face at all. You went for what was a difficult test. I said it before that my feeling is that they need to be burned in and in the system longer. The IEC may burn in quicker due to a smaller mass... 
The Great Cryo'd Outlet Test
Zaikesman, So if anyone hears an improvement from a cryo treated out let in your opinion they are deluded and foolish? But if a guy tube rolls for weeks that's science. Oh brother! Wow. I bet it would take several years of A/B comparisons to deter... 
The Great Cryo'd Outlet Test
Zaikesman, Have fun with the new sound of music from your system. Be patient. It takes a while to settle down. All I care about is results. No I didn't get all scientific when I changed to Alberts outlets. I can't say it's the cryo or not. I can s... 
The Great Cryo'd Outlet Test
My God Zaikesman, I nearly fell asleep while attempting to get though your novel. I never did. I have to hand it to you for being so good at being so uptight!All kidding aside. I'm happy to hear if I couldn't get you to try one of Albert's outlets... 
The Great Cryo'd Outlet Test
Blake,myself I won't be embarased at all if Stehno dosen't hear it. I had unpluged my front end a week or so ago for a couple of days when some big thunderstorms were crusing through. I pluged the conditioner back in and let the pre amp warm up(AR... 
Are Sonus Faber Cremonas "Tube Friendly"?
Banjofan, you might check with the guys over at the Magnepan Users Group on AA, otherwise known as the planar speaker asylum. There are a lot of Zero users over there. A number of guys there like to run low, and or, difficult impedance loads, with... 
Are Sonus Faber Cremonas "Tube Friendly"?
If you are still concerned after the above posts. The amp may work great as in Smp's experience. Twl has a point too. you may not get optimum performance into a load like that. Take a page from the Magnepan and elecrostat guys and look into this l... 
Is the audio research D150 still a worthily amp?
I didn't recall that there were only roughly 200 of that amp ever produced. It might be worth more in stock form to a collector than you realize. Any mod might reduce it's dollar value, even if it makes it's sonic value higher. Check out this link... 
Is the audio research D150 still a worthily amp?
Steve Huntley at Great Northern Sound would be a great guy to talk to about that amp. They are factory authorized ARC service to get it back up to speed(the power supply caps may be about ready to need to be replaced if nothing else)and they do hi...

The most overlooked reason has to do with the fact that you set up the speakers for the bass balance of the other pre amp. Did you adjust the placement of your speakers after instaling the new one? Every time you change something in the system tha... 
Is there a worthy 6922 presently made?
Imin2u, Have you listened to the EH 6922 "gold pin"? My comments are based only on the "gold pin" version. I have no idea how much different they sound from the standard version. I know it depends on the gear you put them in, but in the ARC pre(SP...
