| Duelund CAST silver a $50,000 Upgrade? Cost is an object for some of us here. I ordered a pair of Salk Soundscape 8's and wanted a capacitor upgrade. Initially from all that I've read here and elsewhere I asked Jim Salk to cost out the Duelund caps in the tweeter position only, and nea... | |
| Polk Audio RT2000p or LSi 25's--- WHO CARES ??? Actually, the second sentence should have read "Nowhere in our right to free speech does it give the author of this thread the right to demand a response from this site's members." | |
| Polk Audio RT2000p or LSi 25's--- WHO CARES ??? I'm a veteran too and fought for our right to free speech. But nowhere does it say "I demand that members of this site respond to my query." Many have told the author of this thread that there is a specific site that Polk owners frequent......plea... | |
| What is a better route, tube or SS preamp? I can sympathize with Wolf, having played in rock bands locally in the tri-state area during the 60's and early 70's. My hearing in the high treble range is probably not what it once was. | |
| 450 Pound Monobloc Amplifier Does that Boulder amp come with a good hernia surgeon? | |
| LP management software I find that using an Excel spreadsheet and modifying it in columns with the info you want, like Genre, Artist, Title, Record company, Album number, and Misc info like Remaster or who it was pressed by etc. works for me. I have around 1650 albums i... | |
| What is a better route, tube or SS preamp? So since I have a tube preamp and tube phono preamp and a solid state amplifier, I must now settle for being only 2/3 the fun that Wolf and Iso are. Bummer! | |
| Mark Levinson with Vandersteens? Take a look at Belles. I've heard Belles 350A Reference amp hooked up to Vandersteen 3A Signatures and they sounded great. I have the Belles amp in my system but not the Vandersteens. It's reliable as hell and has a high damping factor which will ... | |
| What is a better route, tube or SS preamp? And before I get pounced on, yes, I do realize no stereo gives you the sound of music live. It's a comparison point to start from. | |
| What is a better route, tube or SS preamp? Wolf's hearing is probably more acute in the higher registers because.......DUH............he's a wolf. Lol! I myself have had great success with a tubed preamp and tube phono preamp going to a solid state amplifier, but your mileage may vary. I d... | |
| Review: Salk Sound SoundScape 8 Speaker Bugredmachine, Maybe since your review was posted in April of last year, you could give us an update review now that you've had the SS-8's awhile? | |
| Review: Salk Sound SoundScape 8 Speaker Correction: Instead of the Duelund I changed to the Mundorf Silver in oil caps, and two are needed in each crossover in the tweeter position. Couldnt justify the $2000 for the Duelund caps, the Mundorfs being $765. | |
| Review: Salk Sound SoundScape 8 Speaker I just ordered a pair of SS-8's from Jim. The finish will be curly cherry in high gloss with black plinths and spikes. The only option I ordered were two Duelund VSF Copper capacitors, one for each crossover in the tweeter position. Very excited a... | |
| Problem with maple under headphone amp I'm a guitar player as well as an audiophile and music lover. Be careful of spruce.........guitar makers use it on guitar bodies (tops) because of its resonant properties. | |
| Is HDtracks really selling you Hi-Rez music? JP2108, As Rlwainwright commented on, the Super Bit remastered CD of Abraxas is excellent. Don't know if you play vinyl, but if you do avoid spending the buckos for the Mobile Fidelity remaster, it was a huge disappoint, a lot of compression, squa... |
