| upgrading JADIS JA-200, JPS2 and JPS3 I own a DA60 integrated from Jadis. I think it has been in production for the longest time any piece of High End Has been. There is a reason for keeping alive. It sounds like everything you could want and expect (IMHO) from a tube integrated.I did... | |
| Why does Cary Audio keep discontinuing good amps? The idea is to actually dump the amps once they met the expense building them. After paying off the cost of the production run and having made some money the remasining amps are free to them or as some might put it just gravy. On the hand if they ... | |
| Is Audyssey worth it? Do you listen to the radio? If not get a Marantz integrated.BTW all of my listening rooms are utterly incorrect and I found Nirvana. | |
| Driving 1 ohm The amps that state stable at 1 ohm advertise this fact. You will damage the speakers if phase shifts the cover off and you see flame. Or you buy the Organ and drum disc to see how your bass sounds. All of a sudden the amp become a source of red h... | |
| Speaker for low volume listening with high WAF Merlins for one,try the VSM. They have a fairly small footprint for a floor strander. The customised Esotar tweeter in them is clean and accurate. IMHO that tweeter competes for world best and provides really great top and lower treble detail at l... | |
| Klipsch Heresy: Inexpensive Int. Amps or Receivers Indeed the Heresy in not a bookshelf. I happen to own 1976 1s but owned a pair of 2s at one point just to see what the bferrite vs th alnico magnets did the sound.Surprisingly they sounded very much alike.The Luxman sounds like va good match due t... | |
| Klipsch Heresy: Inexpensive Int. Amps or Receivers The more power the better. Klipsch woofers just don't get going until they are fed power. Use warm cables to cool down the shouty midrange. | |
| best amp for Revel Studio speakers I apologize for my sloppy typing. I am mildly spastic and only use one or two fingers. Your patience is appreciated. | |
| best amp for Revel Studio speakers Mac are slamming amps.Almost smack you in the head. I think or hope your friend meant Ming Da withb a 2A3. The Shengya comes inessentially two variants a price points made very very inexpensively for th caatty link crowd and a piece that use More ... | |
| Sub for Merlin TSM-MX's I had gotten a pair rather serendipitously but thought these TSMs have the mid and treble of the best. The lack of bass was much to clear. This is coming froma guy that used vintage Klipsch for 20 years. I could not no matter how hard I tried make... | |
| Recommendations for my less than ideal setup First abandon any reservation or fear of tubes or the rest will mean nothing.Tube gear is not more problematic and difficult than SS is. All equipment fails tubes need replacement very infrequently and you dfon't need to do it. Send it in for a re... | |
| Hopelessly mid fi? Computer drives are reportedly superior transport mechanisms. Evidently the data the computer uses must have very very low jitter and a clock that ensures an accurate constant data stream.I assume all this is not actually the reader but the correc... | |
| Kora Explorer 90 amp- are 12ax7 tubes ok? Remember you lose 40% of the amplification factor of a 12AX7. The At7 is considered by many a bad audio tube because it was originally engineered to work in oscillators. As an input tube however it can work very well because it is a very good phas... | |
| ?TT upgrade from most basic to next step-up / tube The Scout is a good next step up. If you can still get the VPI on sale tables brand new, Music Direct or Audio Advisor has the official lower priced TTs amongst others I assume. You must try it. not a big risk with reslling it if you don't like it... | |
| How good are grado cartridges Yes indeed the other threads asking for an opinion about anything is an opinion. This in fact is true of professional reviews/evaluations as well. How would any person know the true or even kind of true answer? Nevertheless, I read these opinions ... |
