| Just listened to Focal Sopra 2 on Devialet 130Pro It is a Saturday afternoon. I am with my girlfriend. I KNOW she is not into audio at all, and not to mention, I am happy with my system at home. I feel, it would be selfish of me to drag her to a hifi shop, on an afternoon that we are together. Do... | |
| Quick and free fuse tweak I know several Pass equipment owners who will not go back to using a standard fuse, based on listening, not on measurements. | |
| Help selecting a new preamp I will not mention the 2 top tier preamps I had, because I do not believe in embarrassing companies, or others, who own them. I have been experimenting with passive pre's for over 25 years, and, thanks to georgehifi, I started again with an intere... | |
| Quick and free fuse tweak noromance, you can do a few turns of the tape, without any problems, as I feel a few turns creates better damping properties than a single turn, as long as you leave space between the glass and the end caps. As far as the upgraded fuses, some of t... | |
| Quick and free fuse tweak Teo, so many pieces of gear that I have opened up, and transformer isolated / modified, did not have any such thing to isolate the transformers. It is quite sad, because for little money, it does wonders. As an example, I recently did an Adcom GFA... | |

| Horn Speaker Recommendations It is interesting that John Inlow appreciates 1 inch drivers as well as 2 inch drivers ( determining horn throat size, of course ), feeling both are superior for different kinds of music, and playback levels. | |
| Will Vincent Dynaco ST-70 with Zu Omens..good combination? Hello old friend. So, you want to change from the STA200 to a tube amp ? I understand, as I have been down the tube route. The only way to know, is for you to try it. I have my own opinions, but as always, these are opinions based on what " I want... | |
| H/k citation 16 A very well made preamp, with excellent specs. However, I do not feel it would be an upgrade in sq, but only you would know by trying it. If the price is right, why not. I am the original owner of a model 11 preamp, that is " not " good enough for... | |
| Job SYS closed business If it is any indication, I know of someone running an STA 200 with a pair of MMGs, and is quite pleased. He replaced an older Rotel RB 870bx amp with the STA, and found it to be a night and day improvement. He is out of state from me, and has foll... | |
| Recommended solid state amp for user with tinnitus Samster777, I am very sorry for what you, and others, are going through, with these issues. Unless I am missing something, you have not mentioned the amplifier you were using to drive the MLs. Have you substituted the Monitor Audios in place of th... |
