| What will a preamp do for me? To the OP, I will chime in....." Loud rock sounds flatter, less dynamic than I’d like ". Loud rock is not Thiel territory, and, with a tube amp ? Not to sound crude, but you have it all wrong. I am also a convert to passive, as I no longer want to... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. This is not in a bad way. " First I'm not using this post to sell amplifiers, that is up to you. " Exposure, soft selling, putting the puppy in my arms. Genius ! All good. Love the thread ! Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. No one has said this yet, except Roger, in his response to my 1st question. If this isn't a form of advertising and exposure, and yes, to sell some amplifiers, I do not know what is. Awesome Roger ! Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. Roger, thank you again for your response. My ears have required long warm up times for almost all of the gear I have had over the years. Solid State as well as tubes, dacs, tuners, tape machines, etc. I suppose R. V. knew what I was talking about,... | |
| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. Roger, thank you for the response. I have to disagree with you as to warm up time of a component ( which is relative to break in time ). For me, 5-10 minutes is never enough. " Don't sound bad when they come up slowly ". For me it takes much more ... | |

| Does anyone care to ask an amplifier designer a technical question? My door is open. I will be the first. I never owned an amp of yours. I have owned other tube amps by several other manufacturers. I gave up on them, and this has been through a pair of modified and tweek'd pair of Klipsch Lascala. Why did I give up on them ? Noise... | |

| New power cord needed for speaker with powered subwoofer? rvpiano, did I read above early in your thread that you have Morrow MAP4 power cables ? These are after market cables. Did you buy them with the expectation of hearing a difference, and in fact, did you ? If you did, you are answering your own que... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Just listened to P.F. Meddle. Cranked Echoes to peaks of about 110 db. Awesome ! Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Wireless amp to juice rear surround speakers? I have used a Rocketfish system for years with great success. It has a sender unit that hooks up to speaker outputs of your amp, which also plugs in electrically with an included small wall wart power supply. This sends the signal to the other end... | |
| Best Preamp New or Used up to $3,000 ?? Contact Tim Stinson at Luminous Audio. Several months ago I replaced two $5-$6 K preamps with a Luminous Audio Axiom, Walker mod, 3 in, 2 out, single ended, with remote, passive unit, and could not be happier. What I am hearing is less coloration,... | |
