| Monitor speakers that disappear:best image/staging Definitely check out the Shelby+Kroll Nano monitors. No matter where you sit they sound great and the soundstage never collapses. I'm starting to sound like a broken record but more people need to hear these speakers | |
| Top monitors 3K - 6K range I'll second the Shelby + Kroll Nano monitors. I don't even have the woofer monitor yet and still love them. Tim does state he thinks they sound their best with class A SS but I'm sure liking what I'm hearing with tubes, It's a shame more people ha... | |
| Does you wife touch your system? only to turn it off. She knows how to turn off the amps but thinks she's turning off the preamp by flipping the HT bypass toggle switch | |
| Budget Chinese Tube amps - any good? I'll second the JWN amps great bang for the buck and great sounding.He also backs up his amps with a lifetime guarantee. With amps of this quality and affordability made right here in the U.S. why look elsewhere? | |
| Looking for a GREAT preamp under $2000...thoughts? Check out some of Nightshade's offerings. They're tube but supposed to sound great. He has a forum on Audiocircle | |
| If you had to choose: tube amp or tube pre-amp? I used to be in the preamp camp first until I got my Eico HF20 rebuilds from JWN - get a really good tube amp first and then match that with the best tube pre you can find | |
| Coherent Speakers. They may very well sound "Coherent" but this post sounds more like an advertisement than a review. | |
| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? I won't be getting rid of my JWN Eico MF20 monoblock rebuilds anytime soon. I would probably have to spend significant coin for a 5-10% improvement - maybe | |
| Quad 21L2 vs Dynaudio Focus 140's??? I owned a pair of the 21L's and while the fit n' finish were beautiful they were easily bested by my Morel Preludes and my current speakers the Shelby+Kroll Nano monitors which I love. Can't imagine them being better than Dynaudio | |

| New or used tube amp for $1,200 At that price point you can get a NEW great sounding amp from Jim Nicholls at JWN amps. All his amps are autobiasing and accept virtually and type power tube. I seriously doubt you'll do any better used | |
| Tube Audio Design TA-60 schematic I emailed Edmund Lam a few months back regarding schematics for the Tad 1000's and he kept refering me back to Paul. After finally grasping the fact Paul had passed away he offered to sell me the schematics for $100.00 and now I see they're also o... | |
| Best Compact Floorstanders? Im getting great sound from my Shelby+ Kroll Nano monitors paired with some great sounding JWN Eico HF 20 rebuild monos. I've yet to hear better soundstage depth and 3d imaging from any floorstander. I can only imagine how much better things would... |
