| Does this animal exist? I wanted that for myself. A technical buddy and builder of a marketed pre told me that 6SN7s don't have the gain needed. I thought perhaps you could somehow run multiples but evidently not. If you want an Octal he said use a 6SL7 or the 12 volt ve... | |
| Audio Research Sp-6a-Should it be modified? Not if you want any one to buy it should you decide that. I have noted people like all original pieces when it comes to buying older or classic gear. | |
| Tubes for base Does it like 845s that is a bassy tube. Subs are not heard they are felt if you want bass get an SS amp and lose the imagery the halographic crystaline beauty out of your system or maybe buy an external x-over and bi amp with an old "all class A" ... | |
| Will Old MAC outperform Cambridge 640 Azur V2? Yes if serviced. Despite the stabile nature of Mac it is wise to have it cleaned up and checked by MC. Yes they have the XX year old parts but it is an expensive refurb. | |
| Pros posing as hobbyists? All that say buying is a matter of price and condition etc. are correct. In fact I think we all would appreciate knowing something about the sellers character.The why sell? for any pro- is "because I deal in used gear as a part time business. I as... | |
| New amp or cd player? Don't worry so much about wpc ratings. I am sure your speakers would play just fine with Accuphase A-60 with a measly 60wpc. Yes 20 watts less than what you have but it is all class A with power tranny that weighs as much as 100 lbs by itself. In ... | |

| Bad preamp choice? I sincerely hope you buy only what you like. I thought my long post said that. Even if it was a pre I knew and hated why think I know of a completely BS notion of an objective better or worse. Where you get it doesn't matter if you didn't steal it... | |
| Bad preamp choice? I must tell you that as the owner of the best preamp I ever heard that you could have made a better choice. In this hobby there are always better pieces of gear. I simply would not let cost deter me from getting my current preamp. It cost an unima... | |
| Anyone hear the "wall of sound"? Thank you for this explanation Slipknot. It sounds much more realistic than the DMB buying the famous "wall". Is there any reference article on the composition of the Wall and anything in particular regarding the Fender speakers. If it is true tha... | |
| Anyone hear the "wall of sound"? They used mostly 15" extended range F-130 speakers and used horn compression tweeters in an horizontal array. These were all made by JBL but sold as a Fender drivers. The Wall was purchased by the Dave Mathews Band when he started to play large ve... | |
| Anyone hear the "wall of sound"? They used mostly 15" extended range F-131 speakers and compression tweeters in an horizontal array. These were JBL but sold as a Fender driver. The Wall I read was purchased by the Dave Mathews Band. It was not used for very long and broken up and... | |

| system synergy RNM4I am very sorry. I mean that sincerely. The post is a terrible burden to ask anyone to read and to try to undertand. I had a strong desire as it turned out a selfish one to endorse the importance of synergy.I suffer from a chronic illness whic... |
