| Axpona 2019 I can honestly say that many of us seasoned veterans can walk in a room and know, immediately, if the system has potential, and in what way the room has influenced what we are hearing ( yes, with or without music we are familiar with ). Plus, we ... | |
| Please- No more Tin Pan Alley Listen, there is elevator music, and there is Tin Pan Alley, by SRV. I disagree, as it is an excellent example of a great song, a great recording, and, by a great artist. It has been one of my references for years, and it easily, and quickly, help... | |
| Switched outlet for power amp Agree with bullitt. Every amp I have owned, tube or ss, sounded best after burn in, warm up, whatever term you want to use. Not only in tonality, but in pure ease, smoothness and finesse. I leave all of my ss gear on, continuously, as I listen dai... | |
| Lightning quick DYNAMIC amp in the under $1000 range Have not mentioned this yet, but I believe the Behringer amp comes supplied with no more than a 14 gauge power cord ( likely 16 gauge ). I am a power cord junkie, and without spending much money, you can buy a very reasonably priced 10 gauge power... | |
| Vintage Fisher Int Amp Model CA 2120 or Kenwood KA 8100....Opinions Unless there is a problem with your Kenwood, I do not believe this Fisher unit is an upgrade. | |

| The new Schiit Aegir Amplifier now shipping " Mike's a very smart guy ". Reading about both the Vidar and the Aegir, I would say Jason Stoddard is a smart guy as well. In fact, not taking anything away from either of them, Mike seems to be the digital guy, Jason seems to be the amplifier gu... | |
| Is Pre-Amp needed My 2 dacs, in 2 systems, are an Adcom GDA 700, and an Audio Alchemy DDE V 3.0, both having beefed up power supplies, and a few more updates and tweeks. They are excellent in driving my passive units, with no loss of anything. I still own a dozen o... | |

| Got a BAT VK-225se ... Holy Moly! Glad you are enjoying it. Didn’t you recently get a Don Sacks preamp ? How does this new BAT amp play in the mix. ? Don Sacks with MF in a 2ndary system ?......Jond, I think the circuit configuration has a lot to do with it as well, agreeing with ... | |
| Is Pre-Amp needed lak said " Music customized to your liking ". System synergy. I said this on another thread. : " I believe an audio system, as a whole, should be able to " show forth " the recordings, in such a way, that when you are in your listening seat ( the ... | |
| Is Pre-Amp needed I believe the difference between those who like preamplification, vs. those who like passive, is as wide as analog vs digital, or tubes vs. ss. I have made my decision after owning some top tier preamps. My dacs drive my amplifiers beautifully, th... | |
| Is Pre-Amp needed I will never use a preamp again. | |
| MBL 101 (~1990) - amp suggestions. My buddy who loaned me his Sonus Faber Extremas for a year, went to the MBL 101 right after. We tried my Crown Studio Reference, which did well, but he had the Jadis JA 500 monoblocks, which were so incredible with the MBL 101s, I cried, listening... |
