I need some turntable guidance @Elizabeth, excellent advice. I've used a Technics SL-1600MK2 since the early 80's. I have 1200+ vinyl albums. Earlier this year, I setup my first dedicated listening room and, while I still have the 1600MK2 in my rec room setup, I purchased ... | |
$1300-1500 DAC Audio Mirror Tubadour III tube DAC for $1500. Check out the reviews. I have the recently released Statement version. I’m am very happy with it. | |
My 1st Tube Equipment Experience @noromance That's good food for thought. I have to increase the volume, but the vinyl sounds awesome. | |
My 1st Tube Equipment Experience A quick follow-up after a half-day of listening to music with the Tubadour DAC in my system. I get the best SQ with the Herron pre-amp gain set to Hi and the NAD pwr amp gain set to Lo. (With the Liberty, the Herron was set to Lo and the NAD to ... | |
My 1st Tube Equipment Experience @jmolsberg Thank you for mentioning the Tubadour DAC. Next up, a better phone preamp than my Parasound JC3 Jr. I think I see a Herron VTPH-2A in my Christmas stocking. | |

A moderate priced dac @jmolsberg I just ordered the Tubadour III Statement to replace my MyTek Liberty. I can’t wait to hear it in my system. | |
Innous Zenith MKII and Roon DSP I ordered the Audio Mirror Tubadour III Statement DAC yesterday. It will be here next week. | |
Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? The only class D amp that I've ever heard is the NAD M22 v2. I've paired it with a Herron VTSP-3A (r02) tube preamp. Being able to adjust the gain on both (VTSP set to low; M22 set to mid), with the Herron's 100 step volume control has allowed m... | |
Innous Zenith MKII and Roon DSP An update to my original post. I purchased the Small Green Computer SonicTransporter i7 for Roon DSP (thanks david_ten!) to solve my Zenith MKII Roon DSP issues. And just recently, I purchased a tube preamp, a used Herron VTSP-3A (r02). It pai... | |
My 1st Tube Equipment Experience @rodman99999. Understand. Thanks, I’ll PM you tomorrow. | |
My 1st Tube Equipment Experience @rodman99999 I’m new to tubes and have never rolled tubes. All 6 tubes in the Herron VTSP-3A are of the type 6922. What's different about the one's you are offering? | |
My 1st Tube Equipment Experience Run the Herron directly from the wall outlet. Why? | |
My 1st Tube Equipment Experience The Tubadour III looks interesting, the Tubadour Signature edition even more so. Audio Mirror's trial period makes this even more interesting. @jmolsberg Thanks for the suggestion.@atmasphere I'm also wondering how much better a Herron VTPH-2... |
