| OTL amps, my pick for the tube used. I have a pair of Audio Mirror monoblocks that use the 6C33C tube and have more than 50 hours and no problems at all. I like the sound of these tubes - very clear, uncolored, balanced and almost no real sonic signature. Tubes with other amps I had ... | |
| Recommended solid state amp for user with tinnitus You may not want to take this direction since HT is involved, but I have found switching preamps made the bigger, positive difference in the sound of my system. I went from 12AU7 signal tubes to 6SN7s and the sound was much fuller, robust, detaile... | |
| Reasonable high end interconnects: without breaking the bank Check out The Cable Company and their affiliate Used Cable. I bought new and used Cardas from them. Got the Clear Light, Cygnus, and Sky. Made a very noticeable improvement over my Kimber Hero ICs. I still use Kimber 8TC for speakers. | |
| looking for a tube preamps that doesn't sound like SS I think an Ultraverve by Dehavilland (Kara Chaffee) would meet the description in your original post. It is 6SN7 based. I bought a used one here on Agon and sold my Primaluna Prologue Premium that I had for 5 years. The PL served me well, I was ju... | |
| What are the advantages to a Class A amp & what are the trade offs? Very interesting thread. All I can say is I recently bought a pair of Class A 45w SET monoblocks that greatly improved my system. Built by Vlad of Audio Mirror. I never had monoblock amps or an SET amp so I took a chance. I did not get them becaus... | |
| Who can dance? Best dancers ever were on Soul Train. The highlight of Saturdays back in the day, good music and cool people. | |
| Who are the Kings of Audiogon? The Wolf. I can tell he rocks and has a great sense of humor. | |
| Looking for great jazz guitar recordings - any recommendations? I too am heavily into jazz and beyond guitar. Totally agree with Viridian and Wolf. Will add John Abercrombie for some more challenging and rewarding listening and any ECM recording sounds great. Larry Coryell did some fine straight ahead records ... | |
| What a sad world we now live in....... Machete don’t stream, or shop at Walmart... | |
| What equipment have you bought this year so far ? Pair of Audio Mirror Reflection 45 watt SET monoblocks - new, and NOS input tubes, Shuguang CV181, and Slyvania VT 229. Rolled tubes for several years and got over it, now trying to simplify while improving sound. Never had monoblocks or an SET a... | |
| Looking for a little help for speakers I may purchase I have the EgglestonWorks Fontaine Signatures (bought from a fellow Agoner) and I first drove them with a Primaluna Dialogue Premium amp, all NOS input and SED EL34 Winged C power tubes. Sounded like enough power to me as the speakers play loud. T... | |

| Doncha get bummed? +1 on the ECM sound - I think most of their recordings are better than those advertised as audiophile, whatever that means. | |
| Power Conditioner My house was built in 1960 and I am sure the wiring has never been upgraded. I upgraded the receptacles in the music room and bought a Running Springs Haley power conditioner, 6 outlets. For my system it greatly improved the sound, i.e. quieter ba... |
