| Using a REL Storm with a Spectrum Amp? Rwwear: The Neutrik option is one of two, the other being a Y connection from the RCA preamps out. The difference is the Neutrik cable is way longer and allows more placement options for the sub than the preamp-out option. | |
| Amp for VR4SR I am very pleased with the Spectron Musician 3SE, now an MK2, running my 4 Seniors. Plenty of muscle to make them sing! I'm currently using a Belles 28A pre (SS), but also use a Modwright 9SE (tube) on occasion. The Spectron is sensitive to IC cab... | |
| Lie you told your wife to buy equipment? "No Honey, I'm not selling it...I'm packing it up to send it in for a tune-up." Translation: Sending it in for an upgrade. | |
| Spectron III SE vs. Signature III SE MK2 Regarding break in for the MK2 upgrade: What do you suppose is the 'window' of time needed when looking at two scenarios: just having the amp on 24/7 with 1-2 hrs of play time per day vs. having a source playing through it 24/7? I need to balance ... | |
| Add a subwoofer to Von Schweikert 4Srs? Thank you all for the advice. Now that it's the weekend I can try a few of your suggestions before actually trying a sub. First off, on the issue of speaker placement and room acoustics, I've been less than thorough at looking at that. We are in t... | |
| Add a subwoofer to Von Schweikert 4Srs? Driver:Question well taken. I'm using a Spectron Musician IIISE, now in for the MKII upgrade, so I'm confident I'm on solid ground. Like I said, I love bass. This character flaw has recently been exacerbated when I attended a live music festival a... | |
| SS Preamp with Balance Control Belles 28A.I have one in my system, replacing a Modwright 9.0SE and a Conrad Johnson 16LS before that. No complaints. Leave it on all the time. Not your typical SS pre if you like the sound of a tubed pre. | |
| Manu Katche Brainwater: I couldn't agree more. He has a way of carving up a simple time signature in so many ways...always keeping the listener engaged. What I find especially appealing about his two latest ECM releases, is that he uses wraped wood dowels and... | |
| Von Schweikert 4SR...bi-wire or Remote Sense? Nick778: Hmmmmm. If I were you, I'd run your idea past Simon at Spectron if you haven't already. Please let us know how your idea pans out. | |
| Von Schweikert 4SR...bi-wire or Remote Sense? Thanks Ejlif. Of course, the easy though slightly risky path would be to just buy the Remote Sense cables (used - about 60 cents on the dollar), try and keep or resale. Decisions, decisions. | |
| State of the art speakers from yesteryear. Polk Audio SDA series. | |
| Spectron Musician III SE Mk.2? What Changed? So, how many Spectron IIISE owners are seriously...seriously considering getting the MK2 upgrade? (If I lived in Chatsworth I'd be knocking at their front door tomorrow.) | |
| What is the story with Rega Appolo? Check out the Cambridge Audio 840C...a steal for the money. | |
| Rachmaninoff, Symphony No. 3 in A minor, Opus 44? This is great. I'm getting goose bumps and I haven't even set foot in the record store yet. Thanks again. | |
| tube preamp for paradigm studio 100s v.3 I used a Modwright 9.0SE with Paradigm Studio 100s V3 for a couple of years....VERY happy with the sound. The unit uses two 5687s and tube rolling gives you many options. You should be able to pick up a used Modwright (basic edition with remote) f... |
