| Pairing tube pre with SS amp Here's a thread discussing a very similar question.http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?aamps&1046669548&openfrom&1&4#1I sound like a parrot, but a used Counterpoint SA-2000 is in your price range. While you surely could find so... | |
| Do we break in our componets or do our componets ? People get broken in to qualities that are not too offensive, as in mostly neutral qualities (as opposed to nasty or nice qualities) and more benign qualities (e.g. our own heart beat and rims of a new pair of glasses). The psych response will not... | |
| How to contact Ken Lyons of Neuance? Agon has it listed, but to Tim's defense, its out of the alpha order. | |
| Is this a male hobby or are there females bitten Oh, just wonderful. Rushton's post and the Hee-Haw understanding of my posts in the past compell me to note to readers that my post was satire of those who see female audiophiles as they see dwarfs walking down street. | |
| any good concerts coming up where you live? Bjork seriously needs to get herself to Dallas. I'm not happy :( | |
| Is this a male hobby or are there females bitten This spotlight routine has been tried in the past, and it hasn't worked really well. Its not that easy; you have to find the ladies in the non-about-women threads and tackle them like everyone else does. Hey there ladies, its me...Ohlala...here I ... | |
| any good concerts coming up where you live? The only tour that piqued my interest was lollapalooza, but its outside, in the day time, and we hit 109 degrees today. We are seeing ol' Dave Gahan tomorrow. Too bad I listened to his album. I am praying for a couple DM covers. | |
| Audiophile Vs. Techfile I don't think passion is the word for it, and its nothing to applaud."Pulling out a brand new piece of gear and smelling the factory and electronics and seeing and feeling the precision craftmanship probably gives me a feeling compared to TWL fina... | |
| which audio rack? Oh, I'm sure its a great rack, like other great racks I know, but regarding the query, lets try and be realistic for just a minute. | |
| AV Racks. What difference does it make? I hear Gunbei, all these little things that supposedly make a difference do seem far out. Just keep an open mind and observe the sonic effect of these quirky variables before fighting for a rationalization. | |
| which audio rack? There ARE hundreds of audiophiles on this site that are stupid. And here are a few of them. I am sure what kind of jerk recommends Sistrum for a system with sub-$1k components, but they can't be that bright. | |
| Value of inexpensive linestage preamps? Oh sure, a used tube preamp, even in that range, actually can be a large improvement over a receiver. With used, you still have your few hundred dollars, just in preamp form. | |
| which audio rack? Yeah, instead of considering $350 racks, I would also like mention ones that are $1400. You should have a custom one built by Sound Anchors, or Billy Bags, but especially Sound Anchors.FWIW - I saw some Plateau racks in a store, and at least those... | |
| Does your system reflect your personality? My volume control crapped out, so now we are both unbalanced. | |
| My Survey project, I need YOUR help : : Yeah, Slappy I would like to know if you're just coughing up a graph or testing some sort of demographic correlation. Obviously you can't extract quality v. price out of this data alone, so lay it on us, I'm curious. And please be as lofty as poss... |
