| Klipschorn: Still relevant?? Onhwy61; "...,no - the Klipsch will not be better than what you have if by better you mean higher levels of fidelity." Yes, that is exactly what I mean. This is getting to the point of my original thread. Can you please expound on this a bit? What... | |
| Klipschorn: Still relevant?? Well, it certainly appears that the Khorns are worth a try. I'm going to listen to a pair this weekend I think. For those of you who have or are willing to chime in, can you comment on how fussy they are with regards to room and placement? | |
| Klipschorn: Still relevant?? Telescope - thanx for the insightful words. One question that comes to mind after reading your post is; is there any meaningful way to determine what the "right" amp is? I've heard that quite a few times now.MacDadTX - Thank you too, if you check ... | |
| Klipschorn: Still relevant?? Postscript: Has anyone experienced Cary SETs with Klipschorns? | |
| Best SACD player under $1500? Despite noting your desire to NOT go with a larger company, I would recommend the Marantz 8260. I have not had any issues. In Stereophile's Recommended Components for two years running. Plus, it's WAY under $1,500. Put the extra dough in software ... | |
| What is Audio Researches best preamp period Why does it have to be ARC?? That doesn't make any sense. | |
| Best speakers 2,500 can buy. Von Schweikert VR4JR. No question. | |
| Cary SLM-100 Bias in Triod Mode SNS, thanx. In fact, one set of tubes ddid get all excited (really bright) before the fuse blew. I changed all eight power tubes and was OK for a few days. Since then, with the different (not NEW) tubes experienced blown fuse twice. I didn't notic... | |
| What constitutes an AUDIOPHILE recording Fidelity. | |
| KT88 single ended amp recommendations please There is no such thing as a KT88 SET amp. SET is an acronym for Single Ended Triode. Triode refers to the tube. The KT88, along with it's cousin, the 6550, is a tetrode tube usually used in a push-pull design - not single ended. | |
| Recommendations on Integrated Amps I had the Marantz PM7200. It has been in the Stereophile Recommended components the last two years. It is 95wpc and only about $500! Nice. | |
| monoblocks for von schweikert vr2? I have the VSA VR4JRs and am using Cary SLM-100 monoblocs and love it. There is a pair of CAD-100 monos on A'gon right now for $1,100 - worth considering I think. | |
| Fats Domino missing Unfortunately, one of the funniest threads this year. | |
| Tube Replacement: Single, Pair, or Quad? Thanx Lak. I did that already. They want me to send all eight tubes in and they'll test them for $125 bucks. I'm 99.99% sure I know which one is bad. Newbee, unfortunately, I can only balance the whole quad. The manual states 175ma, Cary technicia... | |
| Too much bass For what it's worth, I had a similar setup (Cary SLM-100 monos, ARC LS1, Von Schweikert VR4JR) and a similar problem. I solved 80% of the boomy bass problem through room adjustments (I have a dinky room and needed to absorbe bass waves) and Maples... |
