Dahlquist DQ 10 Stands I don't remember where I got the measurement file. It was probably posted on the Yahoo Dahlquist site. I'd like to make a pair when I finish refurbing my DQ-10s. | |

Speakers with wide listening window Ohm Walsh are very good at this. | |
Budget Tube Preamp with Remote Dared SL-2000ASearch the forums for info. I see a new one in the classifieds for $469. I have no connection to the seller. | |
Direct coupled tube preamp? Audio Electronics AE-3 DJH is direct coupled. It's essentially a baby brother to the Cary SLP98. It's fantastic sounding and mates well with tubes or SS. | |
Transformer volume control with Tubes/Quads? Audiogon member Tom_nice has Quad ESL 63s driven by tube amps and a resistor-based passive volume control. I've heard his system several times and think it sounds fabulous. You should contact him if you have specific questions. | |

Five or 10db should be adequate for most systems. The 21a is rated at 17db.I used 10db Rothwell attenuators to tame my preamp and it w... | |
Audio Electronic Supply AES/Cary AE3 MkII preamp For what it's worth, Gerald Walsh told me the DJH has 14 dB gain. I wanted to clarify that since folks in this thread think it has 20.

iMac Combo Headphone/Optical Out Port Cable I've used this adaptor with excellent results: Toslink To Optical Mini AdapterOr you can use something like the Wireworld Supernova 6 which is toslink on one end and mini toslink on the other. | |

Flat Screen Recommendations: 50 to 60 inch There's absolutely no buzz coming from my 1-inch thick Samsung LED. Yes, some LCD's have an artificial, animated picture quality and make real people look like cartoons. No argument there. But LED's are *completely* different. They combine the bes... | |
help me to understand the gain I completely agree with Almarg and Herman. I would suggest selling the amp and replacing it with something that is less powerful and has lower gain.An SET amp would be my preference. |
