| Subwoofer Controls? Dual Volume Setting I have a Velodyne HGS-12 and feel that it works very well for both audiophile and HT music. I have Proceed/Pass/Revel/NBS stuff. I have the sub sourced from the "Sub out" on the Proceed processor, which allows me to choose which channels the sub g... | |
| Cable TV / Subwoofer HUMMMMMMM The cable ground breaker is the formal low cost solution, but actually I just attached a wire from the ground on my amp to an aligator clip which I connected to the shield of the cable tv cable (the outside screw connector). You might need to "lif... | |
| Krell versus Levinson experience I agree with Briweve. I loved my #331 until I heard the Pass Aleph 4. I put the ML up for sale the next week. It was the proverbial case of "lifting the veil" from the music. Much more real. | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference For the Syn Research cables, Contact Bill Bryan at: billbryan@wbagroup.comor Stewart at: Wkendenvir@aol.com | |
| S-Video Cable - is there much difference I bought Synergistic Research Video Reference (around $100)s-video cables a few months ago. The cable is composed of two individual cables (1 for lu, 1 for cr), each shielded and then strapped together, with gold connectors. I feel that the color ... | |
| Revel Studio,B&W 802's,Ect.... I have the Studios and love them. I think they sound much more "live"l than the B&Ws. BTW: The Gems are wonderful as well. They just need a subwoofer. | |
| Aleph Owners and Users... I have an Aleph 4 (100w/ch in one large box) and love it. Its the truest sounding amp I've owned so far. MGottlieb is right, though, they really use a lot of power and generate a lot of heat. Its no surprise, they run "pure class A", no switching ... | |
| Is the center the center ?? I've found Phantom mode to work great when you don't have an equal quality center, but when you do, a center speaker really "locks" in the center. Revel makes a big deal out of timbre matching, which they claim does not mean "exactly the same as R... | |
| CD Players with volume controls My only comment: make sure it uses an analog volume control. Digital volume controls are easier, but they compromise resolution. | |
| P 600 and my TV Hey, I'm running a Pioneer Elite Pro 97 on my PS Audio P600 powerplant just fine. Its been working every day since last May. AND, I really like the improved color and less smearing with the P600. Don't know what your problem is, since the Pro97 dr... | |
| Patricia Barber and Stereophile I have Cafe Blue and think the recording quality is great, but the music is slow and boring. I prefer Diana Krall, especially Love Scenes. | |
| Any Amps with Volume control?? Check out the 47 Labs "Gaincard S" amp. Its a true dual monaural amp the size of a pack of cigaretts and 50w/channel with incredible sound. It has attenuators on the front. See info at their distributor: http://www.sakurasystems.com/ I have one of... | |
| Class "A" solid state vs. Tube amp.? I'm not a tube expert, but have tried several, including the VT100 mkII and McIntosh mono blocks. I have also tried many SS amps, including Levinson and Krell. My current favorite is the Pass Labs Aleph 4 (pure class A). For some music some tube a... | |
| How do I listen to stereo audio? I suggest you sell your Levinson pre and purchase a Proceed AVP. Its a HT pre/processor that contains many of the best Levinson components (such as their best multibit DACS in the right and left channels). I'm very happy with it. | |
| Best solid-state amp made anywhere I love my Pass Labs Aleph 4, but if you have not yet heard the 47 labs Gaincard S(but not for high volume) you will be surprised! |
