| Amplifier for Cornwall IV I think it all has to do with the music being played, the volume levels you want to achieve, and the control of those 15s you are expecting. Listening to Audioslave’s 1st recording ( just as an example), at loud levels, I can assure you I am using... | |
| Peeking inside a Carver Crimson 275 Tube Amplifier @jbhiller, I enjoy this thread. I would use a hot glue approach ( I use clear door and window caulk ) to quiet down the mechanical properties of the cap and the mounting. These caulks have a sound, by brand, and of course, the amount used. Enjoy !... | |
| What makes the biggest difference in sound quality? Seeing how many speakers are for sale, constantly never ending, I believe the speaker / room / listener situation is number one, and must be diligently addressed. And, if you do not have a dedicated music room ( I apologize to all that do not ), a... | |
| What Recordings Of Yours Did Not Age Well? From 30 years ago, the music has not changed, but....you sure have. This is what I am reading into your experience. Enjoy ! | |
| Beautiful Music That Reduce You To Tears Songbird - Christine McVie - Live - as if it were me, and only me, she was performing for. | |
| Beautiful Music That Reduce You To Tears I cried when listening to my vinyl of Santana’s Europa ( from Amigos ), through a set of TOTL MBLs driven by all top Jadis monos, preamp, phono stage, and this unbelievable vinyl playback system my buddy Scott owned ( he was the Jadis importer at ... | |
| Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition @gochurchgo ....Contact Tim Stinson ( the head honcho over at Luminous ), via the email address on the bottom right of his page. Give him time to get back to you, as he is very busy, along with the goings on with the holiday approaching. Tell him ... | |
| Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition I do not miss tubes at all ( this is just me ). My gear is on 24 / 7, and at full volume w / o signal, not a peep out of my 104 db speakers ( no hiss, no hum ), and I am ready to go, anytime. I have plenty of gain, as I could never imagine reachin... | |

| For OPPO owners. HDCD function My dac automatically acknowledges when an HDCD disc has been inserted into my transport, and I must say, I enjoy greatly how they sound. | |
| Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition House sound qualities. If you want this, do not go with a passive design. I want to hear the source (which has it's house sound), and the amplifier(which has it's house sound ). That is enough house sound for me. I need some neutrality in the chai... | |
| How do you get Happy as an Audiophile? I have heard somewhere, that a trip home from the dispensary helps | |
| Line Stage Preamps that blew you away $2500 Edition I too do not like transformer coupled passives. I have been using the Luminous Audio Axiom passive unit ( his very top of the line ) now for 4 years or so. I was into passive years ago with products from P.S.Audio, Mod Squad, and many others. For ... | |
| RIP oregonpapa It is very sad news indeed. My condolences to his family and friends....he was a friend to all of us here. RIP Frank. | |
| If a " system " cannot do this, I move on........ @mijostyn , I have owned panels, and set up many. I understand and appreciate their virtues. However, when I say nothing compares to a live concert, it is my opinion, a good horn system comes closest, but still, no cigar. Is it the equipment’s fau... |
