| Review: Harmonic Precision Caravelle Speaker I agree about the Caravelles, amazing speakers.Funny thing though, the Caravelles have disappeared from the "Upcoming Reviews" section and have yet to reappear in the "Current Reviews" section. What's up with that?Oz | |

| Passive Pre's--Placette RVC or Luminous Axiom I am talking about apples vs. apples here. If he has already determined that a passive device will work in his system, then a TVC will best a resistor based passive. My amp has 37db of voltage gain and a 100K ohm input impedance. My phono preamp h... | |
| Passive Pre's--Placette RVC or Luminous Axiom Maybe you don't understand the concept of the TVC. It is a passive attenuator, but using the transformers instead of resistors for the attenuation. What you have is the same level of transparency as the Axiom or the Placette, but w/o the limitatio... | |
| Passive Pre's--Placette RVC or Luminous Axiom I would say forget both and go with a TVC based preamp. I have compared my custom preamp using S&B trannies to active linestages costing many times as much. No contest, the TVC is always the winner. And I have had the Placette in my system for... | |

| Speaker Suitable for Baby/Children - Wall Mount You should really dedicate a room to your audio system with a feature that is not that expensive. It is called a "door". You take this device and "close" it so that the children cannot go in and upset the expensive speakers. Wow! What a concept!!!... | |
| Which speaker should I buy? Please help. If you are looking for $30K speakers and you are asking advice here, you have problems far beyond what brand of speaker you should buy. At that price point if you don't go out and listen for yourself, you deserve whatever sorry assed mistakes you ... | |
| Remote Preamp with Phono Section on Board I have seen BAT VK-3is with phono for a little more than your budget. Nice sounding line stage, but the phono card is only average. There is a JJ Electronics 243 preamp for sale on the Gon right now. Asking $1300.00 I think. This is a great sleepe... | |
| Best amp for Vandersteen 2sig Avoid any amp that is warm and slow. The already uninvolving Vandersteens will probably lull you to sleep. Look for something with some snap and zip, the McCormack recommendation seems logical.Oz | |
| BAT preamp owners Years ago I owned a 3i and won a contest on the Audio Revelation website in which the prize was a brand new VK-30. I was so excited about the new preamp that I committed the audiophile sin of selling my old component before the new one arrived. Bi... | |
