| Tubes or simply the characteristic of the Pre-amp? Jea48's right. I got the importance of the front and back rows confused. My bad. Also, he is right that you should try his suggestions, first. (They're a heck of a lot cheaper, for one thing!) I don't know why, but I thought you had told us you ha... | |
| Tubes or simply the characteristic of the Pre-amp? The good news is that you have a great preamp. (I used to sell them, a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.) A great piece of tube gear will sound like the tubes and not have much character of its own. And, since the Sonic Frontiers is a great... | |
| GIRL NEWBIE I agree with Hack. Go with a used NAD integrated and some B&Ws. Other good brands of inexpensive electronics are Rotel and Creek. Before I got out of the business, many years ago, I was a retailer at various places for quite a lot of different... | |
| Quattro Fil vs Poeima vs Omega Mikro Thanks, Charlie and Sbrown, for your responses. I really appreciate your input. Seems like you both agree that I'm on the right track, either way. And, that an improvement over the Quattro Fil's is certainly attainable, if I pursue it.I'm curious,... | |
| What are some good tube DACs for under $500? Thanks, Eldarado. | |
| My very old MIT Digital Interface has 4 switches. Thanks, Gene:I suspected as much, since impedance matching is, generally, what MIT's network boxes are all about.I'll just use my ears to determine the best setting. | |
| MIT MI-330: How to tell for which impedance it is? The so-called "MIT 330 Shotgun"s listed on eBay aren't really Shotguns (170113210639), it appears. They don't say "Shotgun" on them, just "MI-330 Audio Interface Cable", nor do they have network boxes, just long black bulges, and, with no impedanc... | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? That's cool. It occurred to me, later, that you might have mistaken the ad. And, don't worry, I have the original box, literature, and, even, the plastic "blister pack" (or, whatever that clear plastic thing is that fits around the box is called) ... | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? I never said I was going to sell my fakes to anybody, nor did I imply it. I'd NEVER do that. What makes you guys think that? Where'd that come from? Those things are dangerous! Nobody should ever use them. I take great offense at that accusation.W... | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? Thanks for making me laugh, Groovey. It's nice to know there's at least one person out there crazier than I am.By the way, are you suggesting that Jack Nietzsche and Fred Nietzsche aren't the same person? | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? Thanks for clearing things up regarding my cables, Kevziek. | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? I'm talking about the picture on the left. THAT is NOT a picture of the fake cable. Yet, it has the lower case "v".Why do people not want to look at that picture?By the way, I, also, am familiar with Jadis' "house sound". That doesn't mean I can k... | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? No, Rwwear, they do sound like they're supposed to. I've tracked down some reviews of them and the reviewers describe the sound of the ones I have. I read these reviews only after I bought the cords, by the way, so I'm not just hearing what I was ... | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? To everybody else: if you look at the pictures of the Mainsstream Hybrid on the van den Hul website--the ones on the left--of their actual cable, you'll see that it has the lower case "v" that they say only the fake has. That's what's confusing. Y... | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? I was a van den Hul dealer twenty years ago. Why would I know what their latest models look like, today? Intuition?You seem to have a small problem with your reading comprehension skills, Btstrg. (For instance, I never sold these cables, or, said ... |
