I like my system flat, no tone controls, no eq..........what is your preference, and why.
Why are some people so defensive about using eq or tone controls ? If your ears require it, whether it be for room acoustics or recording enhancement, so be it. No judgement here, at least that was my purpose of starting this thread. It is ALL goo...

Ron17, I was prompted to start this thread because of the viper experience on WC’s amplifier / speaker thread, as you know quite well. As I have said so many times, and yes it has become repetitive by me : anything we audio folks need to do ( whet...

He is truly unbelievable, this kosst person. He does not have a life, to keep coming on these posts making claims that we all are " crazy ". I said months ago, somewhere, that his posts are laughable and entertaining. Thank you kosst, for this. Al...

Over on the amp/preamp threads, under the Ramtubes, who would like to ask a designer some questions, there was talk by me about amplifier warm up. I feel it is very god reading by Roger Madjeski. Enjoy ! MrD.

Newly acquired Thiel CS2 speaker.....HELP?
My opinion of the best sound through the Thiels would be the Nad as a preamp driving the DBX amp in stereo mode, set at the low impedance setting. Use the Thiels as a two channel audio system, and if you were to use the Thiels in a multi channel s... 
Nuforce STA200
A purchaser of this amp, from early in 2017, stated " Conrad Johnson meets Krell ". I have owned a few CJ amps ( 2 tube, 2 ss ), and a few Krells ( but am familiar with many Krell amps ), and I have to say, this amp definitely has many " high end ...

We need to stay away from the power cord debate here, imo. However, I have stated in other cable threads the subtle, to dramatic differences pcs make, to these ears. Cannot explain why, and I do not really care. But in my listening room, with my e... 
Which SR Blue or black Fuse
It is important to note, that when replacing a fuse, you should not handle it with your fingers, as the skin has oils, and if these oils get on the end caps of the fuse, it can hinder the contact being made. The glass body of the fuse should have ...

This long break in is a reason Mike Morrow gives a 60 day return if you do not like them. 3 weeks of constant play ( I used a tuner set to mono connected to the input of an integrated amp ) showed an improvement in sq across the board. A long time...
