| Anyone with Aric Audio experience? I owned the Super KT SE amp a few years ago. Like all of Arics offerings, it sounds much more powerful than its rated output. I used it with EL34s most of the time and those 12 watts were plenty with a pair of Cornwall IVs. | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers @pindac Why the capitalization of random words in a paragraph? All of your posts exhibit this. | |
| Did I damage my new amp Buy a dedicated streamer and only use your phone or iPad to control the app. Volume control would only come from the preamp. | |
| DAC RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE @ghdprentice The Pontus is anything but analytical. No way I would live with it if this were so. @mbmi 3500.00? I thought the Toubadour V was 6k? | |
| Did I damage my new amp If you are using an app like Lumin, Sense or some other streamer app, you can fix the volume. What are you using to stream? | |
| Did I damage my new amp I hope you sort this out. But here’s one little tip for you. If your streaming involves using the volume control on your phone, you aren’t doing it right. | |
| Anyone with Aric Audio experience? @silverfoxvtx1800 All I can say is you have owned the wrong tube gear if that is your take on reliability. I have been a tube guy for 25 years with very few issues. And my view is the polar opposite of yours. SS is good for casual listening, but... | |
| How does the VPI Aries II stand up to current mid priced tables? 1.5 yrs and still happy with my Aries. I think it’s one of the most beautiful tables available and by far the most attractive table VPI has ever built. I did upgrade the feet, but there are other things I should do, like the platter and maybe the ... | |
| Anyone with Aric Audio experience? I have owned three Aric amps and still have two of them. I currently have a “one off” EL 84 PP amp and a version of his Super 300B amp with some upgrades. To say I’m a happy Aric Audio customer would be an understatement. These are high quality pr... | |
| Cen. Grand DSDAC 1.0 (vs Pontus II) I have a question about this dac. If one isn’t interested in DSD, is this dac still a contender for redbook and hi res recordings otherwise? I have a Pontus II and I like the NOS sound. Is the Cen Grand dac something I’d like? Or is it so differen... | |
| Preamp Gain issues with high efficiency speakers I can’t recommend the Hattor Audio preamp enough. It is the upscale version of the Khozmo preamps built by Arek Callas. | |
| Speaker for 11x12 room 11x12 room with an audio system AND a piano? Ah, ok…. | |
| Preamp Gain issues with high efficiency speakers I tend to stay away from any preamplifiers using an ALPs pot. The attenuator is the heart and soul of a good preamp and can make a huge impact on the end result. | |
| Preamp Gain issues with high efficiency speakers Something doesn’t add up. The input sensitivity of the Premier 11 is 950mV, which is high, but not as high as some CJ amps. Some are on the order of 500-600mV. I can see where 25 db of gain and 100 db speakers would pose a problem. But the Sys sho... | |
