| neutrality vs. realism Paulwp hits a long one again. Although I do not rely on technical statistics, I must admit I peruse them with some amusement. I mainly trust my ears as I hone in on my dream system. I share in the premise there are wave interractions out there tha... | |
| neutrality vs. realism Hear hear, Paulwp. Well said, and without hyperbole. When I hear a fine live performance, as I do several times a week, it would be a silly argument indeed, for one to tell me the accuracy of the sound precludes mind/music catylization. It should ... | |

| Upgrade Fever IMO, Pass X amps have no peer when it comes to dynamics, and dynamic swing. Seems to me, with the Supra in hand imparting a wonderful sound, all you need is the ability to spark up your system, keep it crystal clear, and unfatiguing. With your fai... | |
| Class A and B differences? I'm selling matched Mullards. These are being gobbled up by a lot of people. On my super transparent system, I found the Mullards to be objectionally colored. Why are they so popular?. On other less resolving systems, be it the fault of speakers, ... | |
| Class A and B differences? Listener is the first person I've heard to have the opinion Nelson Pass made better sounding amps in the past, meaning, I guess, the Aleph series. I own a Pass X-150 powering large ribbon speakers. The Pass X amps will faithfully pass along whatev... | |
| big sound at a down to earth price? Rich, just one more. If you want a big sound that will fill your house, buy a used large Apogee. The Duetta sells for around $1500 and is easily powered by a 150watt or higher amp. These great ol' ribbons bring home the real event. | |
| Used Pass 600monos or Rowland 8TiHC? I bought Deshapiro's 600's to power sub 1 ohm Apogee Scintillas. I bought the Pass monos on the strength of my listening to the X150 playing on my Apogee Duettas. The Pass is a wonderfully dynamic, involving amp, that never confuses, and never is ... | |
| best amp match for apogee caliper? Hi Tabu, I am a fellow Apogee owner (Stage, Duetta Sigs, and Scintilla.) Those are all good amps you've mentioned. I'm partial to the Pass Labs X series amps. You can find all the Apogee info you can stand and more at our friendly Apogee forum:htt... | |
| Llano products? Jrinkerptdnet, thanks for the warning. You are not the first. On the other hand, I know a few people who have had no problem with their Llanos. Something of a gamble, huh?Abex, thank you for your help. | |
| apogee caliper or totem tabu??? Tabu, I agree with Musicluvr, the Caliper will blow away nearly any loudspeaker...IF....You give them the right stuff. Buying the Apogee is just the beginning of a brand new audio adventure in your life. ...Just be prepared to sacrifice. No high e... | |
| Anyone know of the new Jolida JD 3000 Tube amps? re: Jolida 100. What tubes was the Jolida witted with during your audition, Trelja? I've heard the MusicHall and it trounced the Jolida with Phillips tubes, a definite trade up from the stock Chinese tubes. The Musicahll had a distinctive "lush" s... | |

| What power cord to use with a Cary 306/200? first use the one that came with the Cary. If something doesn't sound right to you, suspect your front end first, then your speakers, before you ever try to patch an audio problem with wires. | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System I'm with Cornfed, Ckuipers, and other experienced audio enthusiasts who know value when they hear it. I don't know how many systems I have listened to that were terrible but had "great cables." _Kid, I looked at your system pic, great room! Good a... |
