| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Charles ...I was fortunate to have seen what I believe to be Ella's last concert. It was at the Hollywood Bowl and the co-star was Mel Torme. Ella, the poor thing, had glaucoma to such a degree that she had to be led onto the stage by Torme and a ... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... richmon ...Try just one of Charles' suggestions .... some EARLY Carmen McRae or Sarah Vaughn in her later years when she was actually in her prime. Sarah Vaughn had this enormous voice, not unlike a voluminous tenor saxophone player such as Ben We... | |
| Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK I always listen to my system while enjoying the morning coffee. Home roasted coffee, using only organically grown beans on small family owned farms, of course. We audiophiles have other obsessions too, ya know. *lol*Okay, so before this morning’s ... | |
| Pani ... New ART-9 up and running ... ^^^ bryantdrew ...The highs will come around, don't worry. The Art-9 is very extended with sweet, clear highs that seem to go on forever. Give the cartridge a good 75-100 hours. By the way, I don't know if you play a lot of mono records, but if s... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Charles ...I really need to explore the new guys more. I’m so stuck in the 50’s jazz scene its pathetic.Perhaps I have a problem with the modern recording techniques or something. Artificial digital reverb and other added electronic artifacts kind... | |
| Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK Richard ...I didn't get around to changing the position of the dampeners today, so nothing to report at this time. I'll give it a go in the morning and report back.Frank | |

| Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK By the way, talking about "Herbies," have any of you tried the "Black Hole" CD dampening mat? Its the little one that just covers the inner circle of the top of the CD. I've read some good reviews on it. Frank | |
| Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK ^^^ Guys .... thanks for the tips on placement. I'll give it a shot later today and see what happens. The Herbies dampeners have been a wonderful upgrade to the system ... but we can always use more of the same. *lol*Frank | |
| Tube dampeners on ARC gear ... FREE TWEAK Hi, oddeophile ...According to the directions that come along with the Herbies dampeners, they should be placed about a third of the way down the tube. That's what I did, and it worked very well. Frank | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... One of Ralph's S-30 MK 3.3's would be nice. http://www.atma-sphere.com/Products/ | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Charles ...I'd love to hear a comparison between the two amps. Not saying that one is "better" than the other as I haven't heard the Coincident. Frank | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... On the amp for wolf-garcia ....If it were me, I'd have A'goner Grover Huffman build a Dyna Stereo 70 EXACTLY like the one A'goner Steve Fleschler has driving his Legacy Signature III's. The Legacy's are 94db, easy to drive, and Grover's amp is ... | |
