| "Holographic" presentation IMHO, a "more holographic" presentation has nothing to do with whether the amp is a monobloc or a stereo version.Circuit Design, implementation and parts quality has way more to do with sound than if the amp(s) is/are a one piece or two piece desi... | |
| Can anyone help me?Please "As good as these sound and as well as there made and sound they must be worth a good little bit."Probably not. There are very few "vintage" speakers that retain any value. Sounds like these were more of a local or regional item.If they sound good... | |
| Shotgun connection I shotgun my cables and use option 1 like Al suggests. I have always done it this way.You would have 1 "stick" of cable that would normally be for both + & - , but in a shotgun configuration, these would be twisted together for EACH + & -.... | |
| We get into a GROOVE. Matt...My interpretation of what Slaw is saying is that "new" vinyl pressings aren't as good as what was once available?I however do respectfully disagree. I've stated this many times and maybe I'm just the luckiest bastard on the planet, but I sp... | |

| Best of current 12ax7? Rja...I bought mine from Galen Carol.https://www.gcaudio.com/cgi-bin/store/showProduct.cgi?id=791 | |
| Absolute Mystery I really liked "The Music Lovers". I haven't read any other of his books, but this one was good.I agree with Jazz's comments above. | |
| Best of current 12ax7? I mentioned the Sophia tubes, see my above post. Excellent tubes. | |
| Distortion with ARC Ref 150 and Maggie 3.7 Sorry that I was lazy in my response above. I should have stated what Al, (as usual, very highly detailed and correct. We are really lucky to have Al on here. Yeah, I'm a fanboy) did about the gain(s).I did look up all the gain stages, but didn't ... | |
| Distortion with ARC Ref 150 and Maggie 3.7 From what you describe, I think that maybe you are overloading the phono input. Make sure you are using the MM input and not the MC. If you are using the MC along with the SUT, it could very well indeed be too much gain. | |
| Grover Huffman GH RCA ZX+ cables vs... Sabai...weren't you the one who claimed that Grover stole a cable design from you? I think that kind of makes your comments a little one-sided? | |
| Crazy? Thanks for the link! What an interesting story. | |
| Best Option To Liquidate CD Collection I agree with the above comments. Keep your CDs. I have over 2200 CDs that I have ripped to my music server. There's no way in hell that I would ever get rid of them. Actually, that thought has never entered my mind.You just never know... |
