| Lyra Lambda Atlas/Etna FWIW, when I got my Atlas SL Tri of Triplanar (my arm-Woodsong Garrard 301) told me I had one of, if not the finest cartridge available. Tri uses an Etna. | |
| Lyra Lambda Atlas/Etna Never used a Proteus. | |
| Lyra Lambda Atlas/Etna Not familiar with your current cartridge but my Lyra Atlas SL completely changed my system. But I believe the Etna is close for les $. | |
| Selling off Tubes for Solid State, A Cooler Love Story? I was a dedicated tube guy for decades. Because of the heat in the Summer and speakers that needed more power, I started looking at SS. My conclusion and that of the Forum is that there was only two amps that could satisfy a tube guy-Bakoon and A... | |
| Is DSP room correction worth it with a high end analog system? Correlated to SQ-I hear the SQ in the video clip mentioned. I am just concerned that the ADA conversion will loose the original SQ. Guess the Trinnov is a very good one. | |
| Products you added to your system in 2021 that made most impact to your music enjoyment Changed my entire system in the past 15 months. Retired but saving a lot by not traveling. But the two most drastic changes have been the cartridge and, surprisingly, the speaker platforms. Specifically, the Lyra Atlas Lambda SL and Townshend Seis... | |
| SET the best? Excuse the misuse of the word chip. Guess module is accurate. And I am not saying that GaN technology is necessarily the best Class D. Only that it currently seems to be a method that is quite popular. My comment about Alberto’s module being sp... | |
| 2019 300B tubes that are worth the money? ++++1 On Takasuki. parts Connexion in Canada sells them for a hundred less for $1300. When I got mine I replaced Psvane Princess. I feel that the Taks were the best purchase ever! | |
| SET the best? Mozartfan- The “tube” in the AGD Audions contains the proprietary GaN output stage. The glass envelope facilities heat disbursement and can be easily replaced with future improvement. The GaN module used is the only such chip developed specific... | |
| SET the best? I was a die hard SET guy for decades. And 45s are the best. The lower the power, the more the magic. However, I now have my destination amps-AGD Audion mono blocks. I do not miss SETs at all. The AGDs are like a great SET combined with a great ... | |
| Beatles Get Back documentary I was really looking forward to watching as a die hard Beatle fan. I must say that it got interesting when one of the hit songs were developed and played but a bit of a drag in many other parts were they were unfocused or playing seemingly unreco... | |
| Is participating in this Forum infringing on and spoiling some of your listening time? Glad I posted this thread. I have kept splitting my attention but now more scan what I look at and pay more attention to the music. Notice that when I follow my breath the music pulls me into a meditative state. It’s like I breath in the music. I... | |
| Tube Vs. SS Preamps Taks are the best. Maybe even beyond NOS WEs. Tube preamp with SS amp is a traditional and frequently fine combination. Most tube preamps smooth out most SS amps. | |
| Finally Learned: Subs serve much larger role than adding more low bass I am thinking of getting the Audiokinesis Swarm. But I can only place them behind my main speakers facing the back wall. Maybe 2 is enough. I have a friend that does the Swarm with only 2. I could do all 4 but they would have to be lined up beh... | |
| Magico A5 or Sonus faber SERAFINO TRADITION or Harbeth 40.3 XD https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisa0384-sonus-faber-il-cremonese-trades-welcom-excellent-condition-in-violen-red-full-range I do love the SF musicality. Buying used certainly is financially advantageous as well as getting a well broken i... |
