| PSB T3 Owners - Tell Me About Your Speakers - Considering Purchase - Can't Demo Them Amplification will either be Pass 100.5 monoblocks, or PrimaLuna Dialogue 7 monoblocks.Room size is 13.5x16I did read the thread by the recent owner, and there are some positive indicators there. But only the original poster, who just purchased th... | |
| Best 845 Tubes For Art Audio Carissa? I would ideally like to go with the Psvane TII or the Shuguang Natural Sound 845T, but again, need to be sure they are comnpatiable with the amplifier. | |
| Modwright KWA 150 mono v. 1 KWA 150se w/Aerial 9 I would talk to Dan Wright, at Modwright, and get his thoughts. Dan is a great guy, and always helpful. | |
| Art Audio Carissa Sig or Viva Solista Lt ??? I haven't heard the Viva, but I own an Art Audio Carissa Signature and can tell you it's an absolutely superb amplifier. | |
| trying to reach Art Audio..... are they gone ? Mattzack2 Were you able to reach Joe Fratus? I lost touch with him, and Art Audio some time ago. Now they seem to have disappeared completely.I have a Carissa Signature (with some enhancements) and couldn't agree with you more. Fabulous amplifier! | |
| Primaluna DiaLogue Premium preamp "I am also thinking about changing the rectifiers. I got the message from Kevin that using the Philips 5R4GYS isn't automatically an upgrade. It is warmer. The preamp is so perfect stock I don't know if I want to take a chance. I suppose I could k... | |
| Best Option In A Silver CD/SACD Player $1k Or Less Okay, so let me get this straight, my audio system has completely monopolized the living room in what was originally HER house, for the past two years. And now she asks for ONE thing, and that makes me a pushover? | |
| Beware Olive owners The CD drive in my 4HD died and I was informed me that it is a long discontinued part, and none are available. | |
| Best External Drive To Rip A Lot Of CD's with? If Tidal had even a fraction of the music I own available, possibly, but they don't. | |
| Best External Drive To Rip A Lot Of CD's with? Al,Thank you for that very helpful link. You may have saved me some cash and made my job easier. I just recalled that I had a very high end NEC external cd drive from years ago stashed in a closet. It is a beast of a unit, weighing about 5 pounds.... | |
| Parasound C2 As A Stereo Preamp? Thanks, I was concerned about that. There have been several suggestions that I should find a Proceed AVP2 for this purpose. Age would concern me there, even though it has the many Mark Levinson components inside. | |
| Integrated amps- Hegel H100 or Vincent SV-237? There is actually no change in Hegel's "list price" only strategy. That's just one dealer that apparently has a temporary overstock. Other Hegel dealers are still only selling at list. Two friends of mine checked with their local dealers and no bu... | |
| Best Option In A CD/SACD Player Under $1,500.00 I'm essentially waiting for the first one of a number of options to appear in the used market at this point. | |
| New to digital high-end, need help Steve, when you say "Are digital files successfully used in that level of system? Can they sound as good as a quality CD source?"Yes and even better than a CD transport. The front-end is the most important thing because jitter in the digital sourc... | |
| Amplifiers:A Keeper for Life. Do you know of one ? Roxy,You are attributing things to entirely the wrong people. Likely due to misinformation widely put forth. I cannot say more because I have been asked not to. I stand by my statements as to Joe Fratus and his company. Joe would never misrepresen... |
